Some Girls

Comparisons to The Inbetweeners are inevitable, as the series follows four sixth-formers who talk about sex a fair bit, and one of them's a bit simple. However, it keeps the grossest of its humour (which doesn't hit anything near the worst of the Rudge Park boys' adventures) contained in the dialogue, and really the funniest moments are pure character. Brilliant performances from all four leads make it hard to pick a favourite. Whenever a joke might lag, the girls stay utterly committed and keep the entertainment levels high. Supporting actors are strong too as well, with Colin Salmon, Dolly Wells and Jassa Ahluwalia all giving memorable turns. Hopefully everyone will be back for the second series.

I hate how some are criticising the blonde girl so much. Loads of girls are like this, but it doesn't make them bad people. It also annoys me ow some people find men sleeping around funny but when it's a girl they call her names! I thought the acting was excellent. I went and researched the girls' ages in real life, the oldest being 30! I found that astonishing as they are so believable as young girls. It's a comedy sitcom, not the next Shakespeare. Laugh and enjoy.

8 for Dolly wells. I've been wanting to watch this for some time as i love these types of shows. Firstly it's nothing like the Inbetweeners. I found it more like Ackley Bridge but I liked that better. I'm on season 2 now and am going to finish tonight. Oh to add someone said it's available on Prime? It's not for me but I'm in the US. It is however available on Roku TV. I'm going to finish tonight and see how it goes I'm editing to add to the id**ts saying this is a rip of of Inbetweeners! Have any of you watched it? I reviewed it as well. Also no one here is obviously a Peep Show( cult classic fan) because then you'd get it. These girls don't drive or wank all the time and look for sex all the time. Nothing like Inbetweeners!

I stumbled across this while scouring Prime Video after accidentally letting my subscription roll into another month, and I'm glad I did.

I was surprised to find it compared to the inbetweeners everywhere because even though I enjoyed both shows I never really made any connection between the vibe of each show.

They all do a great job for young inexperienced actors although the girl playing Amber hams it up a bit too much for my taste (which could have been a deliberate choice from the director)

When I finished I thought they could have fleshed out the other 3 a bit more, but as it's mostly done from Vivas perspective, it's all coming through the lens of a 16 year old girl.

It was also nice to see girls sticking together in tv show rather than the endless power-struggle that makes up most on-screen all-female friendship groups.

And actually, what impressed me the most as the former London schoolgirl who got practically eaten alive by the other students, I had zero anxiety or resentment watching it. Saz and Holli would've publicly screamed at me for bumping into them - and when I was watching Skins or the inbetweeners or anything else along the same lines, some part of me was always aware of this whereas watching Some Girls I forgot and was along for the ride. This, despite the (very funny) humour being a bit predictable, is pretty impressive!

The only negatives I can really think of is that some of the girls' accents sound a bit forced, like they've been told to exaggerate? And funnily enough I thought all the adult acting was weaker than the kids. Also (not really a spoiler) while Viva and the girls are obviously going to have a naive perspective on it, there should have been a clear "that's not ok" point about Jamie's potential history in one way or another.

It's not a laugh riot but I'm definitely going to watch it again because 3 seasons flew by

Really funny show with likeable characters. Its basically an female version of The Inbetweeners. I do miss when BBC Three was an Channel.
