Potluck Ladies

Potluck ladies!

Such a visual treat. Loved watching the show with the beautiful characters unfold. The performances felt very authentic and relatable as you reflect on your own experiences as a new immigrant. I loved the simple joys and friendships displayed through the female lead cast.

I love that the show promoted local talent right from the direction and screenplay to the actors who all put their best foot forward. The music score was also great.

I'd love to see more of the show as we unpack the lives of the lead characters and unique perspectives through their stories, especially their triumphs in the face of harships. The strenght of community and friendships is amazingly portrayed in the show.

Potluck Ladies is a heartwarming, feel-good series that offers a perfect blend of friendship, heartfelt moments, and the power of shared meals. The show follows three newly immigrated South Asian women in Toronto as they navigate their new lives and form deep connections. Natasha Krishnan's standout performance brings depth and authenticity to her role, effectively conveying the complexities of Sumaira's experiences and emotions. The strong writing, combined with the essence of community living, focuses on the hardships faced by immigrant women, making it highly relatable. I hope there's a season 2 coming soon, as I'm deeply invested in the lives of Sumaira, Azra, and Ruby.

Amazing show, with a great story line.

Always a pleasure to see south Asian representation. A must watch!! Loved to see the perspectives from the different characters and a fully diverse cast. An easy watch, can easily sit through the whole season in one sitting. Really excited to see what's in store for season 2 due to the cliffhanger that the show was left on! Special call out to Sumaira (Natasha Krishnan) for her acting and really taking on the persona of the character. Nice to see themes that aren't usually talked about openly in the south Asian community, such as divorce, a woman's challenges with her body, etc.

Potluck ladies is a very positive show with a compelling storyline and beautiful characters. The show draws you in with endearing women who are striving for a better life for their families in a foreign land. They all relate to one another and form a bond of friendship as they adopt to the realities of marriage, visas, work and family expectation's. Etc. The show does a wonderful job of keeping things real and relatable and does not follow the path stereotyping characters. It cleverly brings out challenges of families dealing with conflicting value systems, freedom and long distance relationships. The acting, dialogues and execution is spot on. All in all a very enjoyable show.... only complaint is it is very short so you are left wanting for more...looking forward to season 2.

Potluck ladies is such a beautiful series, with intricately etched out characters and deeply explored emotions. The show was an emotional roller coaster ride for me. Each character's psychology is delved into. The characters are so human with their flaws and their eccentricities.

Natasha Krishnan truly stands out not only as the heart of the series, but as its mystical center. Her mesmerizing portrayal of Sumaira is its own kind of magic and portrayal of great character study.

Potluck ladies is an important story in the South Asian community and shine lights on the internal issues South Asian women face.

I Highly recommend it.
