Netflix has been in the habit of making some questionable shows lately (see What/If). This show, however, really isn't a bad watch.

The screenwriting and acting is good. It feels very "believable. It's probably the first show I've seen in a long time that is about teens and has characters that feel and act like typical teenagers. There's no doubt that it's well written and the three main characters in the show have good chemistry together.

I also really enjoyed the 30 minute/episode format and felt that it worked well.

My biggest problem really was that I felt the show was too abstract and there really wasn't much going on. Moreover, the premise of the show (shoplifting, it's how the three girls meet, connect and become friends) doesn't really add much to the plot lines. They could've really met anywhere and under any circumstances and so the decision to use shoplifting seems a tiny bit random.

All in all it's a good show however and definitely a step in the right direction for Netflix.

I mean the whole show and characters were quite predictable, and there was no sign of any consequences for the girls actions (the girls kept 'lifting') but I was an ok show and I enjoyed it. Not Netflix's best, but definitely not their worst!

I personally really enjoyed this show, but (and these are just small things) I will say that I wish it was longer episodes and less music.

Is it a teen show? Yes. Is it a little cliche? Yes. Does it cover a lot of teen issues now a days? Yes. But the acting is good and the main actresses really have great chemistry together. It really has kind of an 80s movie kind of vibe and the music is excellent. All around a really cute show.

Once in a while Netflix has these little gems that you have to go looking for, like a scavenger hunt if you will, I wholeheartedly recommend you dig up this treasure.

Trinkets is based on a Young Adult Novel of the same name, and it stars Brianna Hildebrand (Deadpool), Kiana Madeira (The Flash), and Quintessa Swindell as three teenagers sent to shoplifters anonymous for some petty crimes, and tho they come from different backgrounds they seem to be great partners in crime.

It's not the greatest series of our generation, but it's a short series that has comedy, drama, a well written story and great performances from the entire cast.

I stumbled upon it after I stopped watching a series on Netflix that sort of depressed me, this was a good medicine.

Because the young cast is so talented and the story is very well written I give this an 8 out of 10.

It is not a must watch, it is a should watch.
