Wildfire

I am 22 and I thought that a ABC family show would cater to the teens and of course it does, but I enjoy it nonetheless. Perhaps it is because it is the summer and there is nothing on TV but I really enjoy this show. And that says a lot considering I am not a horse fan (that is my sister!) I enjoy the dynamics and can forgive all the inaccuracies in the horsemanship, mostly due to the fact that I don't care. I watch this show for the relationships and not the horses. The whole situation with Wildfire only responding to Kris may be a bit far fetched but so is so many things on TV. This show has promise and even someone in their 20s can enjoy it. The acting is good and I hope that this show picks up. Watch it, you just might be surprised. There is nothing better on TV anyway!

My 14 year old horse loving daughter loves this show which means that the entire house has to watch.

I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the writing and acting of some characters--notably Genevieve Cortese, Arye Gross, and the especially talented Nana Visitor. Sadly, all of the acting is not of that quality. Greg Serano as Pablo seems stiff and stoic in every scene.

Production quality could be stepped up a bit, but I suspect they're squeezing everything possible from the budget.

There have been a few scenes that might be too sexually charged or violent for young children, but the rating system works. Use it if you have young children watching television.

I love this show. It is kind of like "The O.C.", except for a family crowd. And a little gender role reversal. It's great. The guys are cute, and the people have issues. That is all I ask for in a good TV show. I hope that the story lines maintain their greatness. So far, the quality hasn't declined, like many other shows I have seen. I will continue to watch this show, and I encourage everyone else to watch it, too. I'm glad that I can watch it with my parents without having to have any embarrassing talks about weird stuff that I get when I watch "The O.C." And I also love the horses. They are so beautiful. Especially Wildfire himself. I love this show! Yay!

As for a teenaged "chick flick" it meets all the requirements; hot guys, cool chicks, rebellion, romance, drama, romantic competition, implied sex and, of course, horses! Acting is marginal at times but that has more to do with writing and character development. (one dimensional; ie Is Pablo ever in a good mood? Is Matt always uptight and worried?) Chris is a study in narcissistic sociopathy (but after all she is a criminal - and they don't change. Right?). Still I watched, and watched. So will you. As for accuracy? Maybe the scenery. but the horse racing culture could not be further off the mark - Ask Triple Crown winner Justify's people if they use him s a trail-riding horse in between races? What are Ritter's or Davis' racing colors? Jockey silks DO NOT change from race to race. I could go on but you get it. But - I kept watching and watching, and so will you!

I'm 22 and certainly not a girly girl. This was a friends suggestion and I started watching it with no small amount of trepidation.

And I was very happily surprised! The characters have more depth than I've come to expect from teen dramas and having watched a several episodes of the O.C and various series of a similar vein I have to say - This blows them out of the water.

The main character is also a fabulous role model for any younger teens watching the series, its truly refreshing to see a strong character with a bit of bite and without the vain flailing most series seem to give their female leads.

The biggest praise I can give is to tell anyone reading to -watch- it. No matter age or anything else, give it a try.
