The First Wives Club

We signed up for a 7 day BET + trial just to watch this show. I hope they have more shows of this caliber. If so we'll keep the service.

My wife and I binged the season in two days. The episodes are fast and funny. You can go through them pretty quickly. Those girls really have some chemistry. The guys on the show are great too. Really impressed with the acting and the writing was funny and sharp. I also loved to see so much of my city in it. Really interested to see where the next season takes us. Keep it up BET!

Love the honesty of the characters and the beautiful portrayal of African American women in friendship and support of each other.

This is actually one of BET+'s better shows. The show starts to pick up more in the second season, the sets look a lot nicer and the episodes are more fleshed out. Jill Scott, Michelle Buteau and Jordan Carlos are all funny. I like that Bree and Gary's story ark shows how complicated trying to sustain a marriage can be when there has been infidelity. If you enjoy shows like Run The World on the STARZ network or Harlem on Amazon Prime (like I do) you may enjoy this as well. Its an easy show to binge watch, I also like how some of the moments in the show feel authentic to certain adult's experience such as balancing career opportunities alongside relationships.

The directing, editing, and script is so bad. Great actors but the story line was all over the place, lots of errors in the editing. Saw the Georgia State University sign in a scene in NYC. Direction was off in lots of the scenes. The fake Jamaican accents were horrible. Wardrobe and Makeup was dated. The men bashing scenes were a bit annoying. I am so confused why people love this show. The funny parts were so desperate and just corny. This show made me sad. I couldn't believe so many awesome Actors hopped on this hot mess of a show. A cringe worthy show that doesn't deliver. Can't wait for new shows to come on.

Pretty decent effort here, but missing a little of the charisma and spark of the film.
