Summary
Reviewers say 'The Wilds' is lauded for its diverse cast, intricate character dynamics, and exploration of survival, trauma, and societal expectations. The unique premise of stranded teenage girls and their unfolding backstories garners appreciation. However, some criticize the slow pacing, uneven writing, and underdeveloped characters. The survival elements are seen as unrealistic, and plot inconsistencies are noted. Despite these flaws, many highlight the show's growth potential and its engaging, thought-provoking narrative.
Featured reviews
I don't know why some people are so harsh about this show.
It ain't perfect, but it is still pretty good tv.
I really liked this show, seems like most of the bad reviews didn't bother watching through to the end. Lots of unexpected twists and a cliff hanger that left me waiting for a season 2. The acting was a bit cheesy, but it's a YA series...what did you expect?
I genuinely liked the show and binged it in one day. It is a needed distraction! It was a blend of Lost and the 100; both of which I liked. If you don't like YA dystopian/survival shows or books, it may not be for you.
I am upset as another wonderful series gets the ax. I wish shows that have high ratings and dedicated viewers continue to be dropped.
The streaming services NEVER explain why. And again, a cliff hanger, to boot! Prime, not happy with you!!!!

Considering there were reviews left here almost instantly after this series hit Amazon prime, there is no doubt that those reviewer's did not watch 10 hours/10 episodes before leaving their scathing reviews. If you can't bring yourself to watch an entire movie/series before giving your opinion, maybe you should just not say anything. I personally really enjoyed it. Is it the greatest series I've ever seen? Of course not but I still found it enjoyable and look forward to the next season.
UPDATE: Avoid season 2 at all cost.

- TriviaMia Healey, who plays Shelby Goodkind, is originally from Australia. After receiving a callback, she believed in the character so much that she flew to LA to read in person.
- GoofsGretchen and her staff make several mentions of liability issues and the need to avoid a lawsuit. Their entire operation; stranding a group of underage people alone on an island, must have had their parents consent, if not the experiment would be so illegal as to render any liability issue moot.
