Nell, a Renegada

A fantastical tale not to be taken too seriously, loosely structured around a real historical story. However, this is entirely fiction and should be seen as such, unlike some reviews on here. The scripts are tight and the acting consistently high from all with some wonderfully over the top incidental characters to lighten the tone.

Every episode tells a story within a story and keeps moving along at a good pace to keep you entertained and wanting more, with no weak episodes. The whole series wraps up nicely which is a refreshing change these days when most series end with a part of the story untold.

Recommended for when you want a little bit of escapism for your entertainment.

I noticed the show when I was browsing through the disney+ app while bored. It's not the usual type of show I watch but I decided to give it a try. I'm definitely glad I did! The show is such fun! It has everything you could want. Action, comedy, drama, great acting and quite a compelling story. I was even suprised that I actually liked most of the characters, definitely thanks to the talented actors and actresses who portray them. The show was so good that I binge watched it all in just two sittings and was left wanting more. I really hope it gets another season so I can see more of the characters and see how there story ends.

What a celebration!

Renegade Nell was absolute fun, action flavored with fantasy and a wonderful Luisa Harland (better known as Orla from the Derry Girls).

Her Irish accent tops it all, brilliant! But also the other characters, e.g. Florence Keen as George. Everything on top!

Exciting, funny, fantastic, hardly anything is missing. This series is different than anything I've seen before. The Mystery Part is awesome and fits wonderful into the Show. It ist not to much, the charcters are still normal persons. It is so much fun. Give it a try and have a lot of fun!

I'm looking forward to a second season!

Some of you need to learn how to have fun and not take everything so seriously. I swear some people are so uptight with their reviews. I thought this show so far (I'm three episodes in) is lighthearted and fun. The comedic writing is good, the storyline/plot is entertaining so far and I like Nell and most of the cast. It's fun natured and clearly meant to be entertaining and lighthearted and good fun. You're not watching a freaking documentary for the love of God, so if you expect it to be perfectly accurate to the time period and history, watch something else. This clearly isn't for you. It's fun and it's not meant to be watched as a film snob or to be taken quite so seriously, I thought that was pretty evident from the very first episode...Some of you didn't get the memo clearly.

This series is very well produced and acted! Actually made my Mom put her Solitaire game on her phone down! (I have created a tech monster at 85 y. O. She is like a teenager with her phone...but I digress). The characters are great. The actors are fabulous! So many favorite characters with this series. Nell's character has hints of Gentleman Hack (another great show that unfortunately is no more). This series is also casted very well, in my opinion! Unexpectedly funny, if you actually pay attention. We are binge watching it today! Three more episodes to go. There better be a second season!! I can't imagine Disney not doing so!
