Younger

I started this show once a few years ago and didn't make it very far and now, I have no idea why. I started watching it again and I immediately got hooked. As soon as you get your character development, it's hard to turn off the TV. It's heartfelt, it's funny with a few laughs out loud moments. Of course, Sutton kills this role, but my favorite character has to be Miriam Shor's character. She's rough around the edges but hilarious and even kind at unexpected moments. Regardless, I get to hang with my old Saturday morning pal, Hillary Duff while enjoying heart throb boys and a metric crap ton of girl power.

I love this show and feel like it hasn't got the attention it deserves. It's smart, well written and witty. Sutton Foster is a bright star in this. She's funny and relatable. Hillary Duff is just an OK actor but the other cast members pick up the slack. The Diana Trout character is hilarious! Great show!

Rewatching this series again and thoroughly enjoying Miriam's portrayal. Younger has so many things that differentiate from other series that make it an enjoyable watch. Filled with a lot of unique characters what really surprised me is how unlikely Diana Trout would end up a redeemable villain and yet they pull it off so well and Miriam Shor is the reason. The words may have been scripted, but every sentence was performed with different nuance and comedy. Truly such a joy to watch her although her story is mostly sub plot. I don't know if anyone could have played the part as well as she did. Love you Miriam!

I was hooked from the start when the show started but then season 7 happened - BIG DISAPPOINTMENT! The first half of the season lacked clear direction and the second half felt very rushed. But was worse was the writing - no originality. Such a pity but the first few seasons were very enjoyable to watch with some great moments.

No secret that COVID put a sizable crimp in any and all forms of entertainment, and many of us waited patiently for our favorite series to catch their breath and regain their momentum. The first six seasons of "Younger" fell into a fine, if not groundbreaking, rhythm, but the final season did not air on TVLand, so unless viewers had a premium streaming service, they were left hanging. I finally caught the final season on DVD and was floored by what I saw.

Apparently the writers had to work with whatever cast members they had at their disposal, and when Miriam Shor decided not to return for the final season, the decision was made to unofficially - and literally - put Molly Bernard in her place. For six years, Bernard was, footage-wise, a smallish contributor to the total sum, a mosquito you could endure to get to the true picnic that was the show. But in season seven, she is everywhere, in almost every scene, for some reason no one can explain, acting as an executive in the publishing house. It was a toxic decision. If you're not a Bernard fan - and I am decidedly not - the final season of "Younger" is pure, unadulterated murder.
