The show was a series that gave teen drama, horse lovers, and family all in one show. It was so great that I watched the whole season over a day after first watching it. This show is great for anyone that loves horses and a little teenage drama that keeps the audience attention when watching it. Hope many enjoy the show as much as I did and hope that another season will happen with all of the same characters as season 1.

Netflix recommended this series to me because I watch Heartland. I ignored it for a while because I figured it'd be some cutesy, childish TV series, but eventually decided to try it. It's actually pretty good! Currently I'm 28, and I used to watch The Saddle Club when it aired back in 2001 when I was 11. I think it appeals to a slightly more mature audience than TSC, and the child actors are better in comparison. Being an equestrian myself, I can't help but roll my eyes at the idea of a teenage girl with zero prior riding experience suddenly becoming the stable's best rider in a matter of months, but it's still all around a great series. The cast has great chemistry, the landscapes are absolutely breathtaking, and I love the variety of beautiful horses they have. Definitely a good drama series.

Can we please stop with the movies and TV shows with teen girls wearing 10 pounds of flawless make-up 24 hours a day? It's totally unnecessary, unbelievable and detrimental to young girls' self esteem. The main character isn't too likable... actually none of the characters are, but maybe that's because the acting is stiff and the dialog is ridiculous. The show itself is silly, predictable and completely unrealistic, full of plot holes big enough a horse could fall into them. This is a total waste of time for most people unless you really, really love horses.

The series runs smoothly and it's not to be taken too seriously. Characters have their own characterization and I personally did not get bored between an episode and another. Free Rein is ironic, simple, full of teen drama and pleasantly fills a free afternoon. Each episode lasts about half an hour, it's worth a look but as as simple as it is you have to watch it without high expectations. I enjoyed it.

This show changed my life. I did not know what I was going into as a pressed "start episode" on my blotchy iPhone screen. As the minutes passed by, so my spirits lifted. "Could there be any show on earth more incredible?" I inquired to myself. Turns out, after minutes of searching and viewing, there isn't. This show has anything your aching heart could desire: the vibrant British country side, little horsey boi, drama, and attractive British lads! Yes, Free Rein has it all. And it has my heart. No other show can possibly be as perfect, as pure, as wonderful as this series. If you are questioning whether to begin on this epic journey that is streaming this series, I personally would like to invite you on the ride of your life. Don't forget to bring your horsey helmet, it's going to be the greatest ride of your life.
