First Wives Club

This is actually one of BET+'s better shows. The show starts to pick up more in the second season, the sets look a lot nicer and the episodes are more fleshed out. Jill Scott, Michelle Buteau and Jordan Carlos are all funny. I like that Bree and Gary's story ark shows how complicated trying to sustain a marriage can be when there has been infidelity. If you enjoy shows like Run The World on the STARZ network or Harlem on Amazon Prime (like I do) you may enjoy this as well. Its an easy show to binge watch, I also like how some of the moments in the show feel authentic to certain adult's experience such as balancing career opportunities alongside relationships.

Great take on a first wives club classic. Those 3 ladies do carry well this show. Cannot wait ford 2nd season. Please we need a 2nd season !!!

Pretty decent effort here, but missing a little of the charisma and spark of the film.

I really liked the show when it first came out but the acting and storylines have progressively gotten worse over time.

I hate Jill Scott's acting but I love her (and I appreciate plus size representation) so I continue to watch.

Deborah Cox's acting is horrible. I hope her storyline ends very soon.

I hate giving the show a bad review or low rating because I'm so glad to have this representation on screen but I really hope that future seasons, if there are any, focus more on storylines and improved acting.

Love Gary and Bre's relationship and was very happy to see the new romantic relationship involving Jayla.

As a 33 year old white gay man, I heard there was a "The First Wives Club" tv show remake and no matter what I had to see what this was all about. I signed up for the BET+ streaming service, just to watch the show. Its worth it! Great characters, and great concept! They took the original idea and made it their own! There are a few "callbacks" to the original movie and they are so welcome, but for the most part the show is fresh, funny, and edgy! Definitely worth the watch!
