Listen, I left a review after watching e1, and I'm finished now with S1 and my rating stands! DON'T BE HATERS - YOU MUST SEE IT THROUGH - because all the issues that these crap reviewers took umbrage with, are actually the crux and point of the show - PLEASE give it a chance, you won't be disappointed and if you are... at least you'll have been privy to some legit epic music -
Can't imagine this show running in any network a few years ago. But this is 2021 and we can see little gems like this. Unique, funny, insightful, full of small punch lines that make you laugh. And the characters are quite interesting. Although they seem exaggerated, you can actually see them show up one of these days in the flesh. Recommended.
This series is an absolute beauty. A fun ride roller coaster with lots of humor, sarcasm, feminism, Islamic prohibition, and obviously friendship and family.
Just imagine 4 Muslim girls wearing hijabs and bourkha were played a rock song in a punk band, how it seems? Yeah, that's kind of interesting this series is. Moreover, this is a sitcom. I mean there's lots of comedy, or should I say situational comedy! And sarcasm and funs.
And all the characters are refreshingly unexpected, complex, funny, self-portrait and endearing. Girl's power, witticism, and obviously punk rock. The story and screenplay were good enough to engage the viewers until the end. And interesting, funny too.
The lyrics were too good. Acting skills, anyone could have stunned with their acting skill. The cinematography and the directing were good. The main fact is, I'm in love with this series. Thank you Nida Manzoor and her teams.

Yes I am a Muslim woman and sure I wouldn't do some of the things the girls did BUT SOME GIRLS DO. And that doesn't make them any less religious or make you "real" Muslims better than them. I liked that it showed multiple different types of Muslim girls bc I've seen all those kinds. I understand it may not be entirely accurate but it's refreshing to see the same old representation that we get which is just girls taking their hijabs off for a white boy. And stop with this real Muslims can listen to music, like why did you even watch the show?

This is some of the best British television I've seen in years, and it is wonderfully British. All the jokes land perfectly, and some made me laugh so hard I had to press pause.
To my shame I had not heard of any of the actors before but they are all extremely talented, especially the lead, who's portrayal of stage fright is so good it's painful.
Even the music is great: look out for the best ever punk cover of "nine to five".
I am also new to the work of creator Nida Manzoor, but will be keeping an eye out for her in the future.
In short , if you don't fall in love with Amina and her friends, you don't deserve to own a television.
