Now and Then

Quite a catchy recipe for this one and adequately executed. A group of friends, 20 years after a certain event are being blackmailed for what happened back then. It's the same recipe that Netflix used for creating the much inferior "two summers". The 4th episode of this apple TV series is amazing and the plot is quite intriguing throughout. The suspense is being kept with new elements in every episode and the pace is normal to fast which is good for a change. All these pretentious crap series that keep the pace slow on purpose and for now reason, drive us to extreme levels of boredom. Almost only the European productions have a true justification for the slow pace that we usually encounter in their series (e.g. They build characters, show emotions, raise the tension etc). American TV shows of nowadays think that by purposely keeping the pace slow, this automatic raises the quality standards. Thanks God this show is not that pretentious. Enjoy it for what it is: a suspenseful and commercial crime thriller which is interesting to watch whilst being neither super sophisticated nor of low quality.

Please don't listen to the haters on this one! I feel that those who rated this show poorly had their minds made up after one or two episodes. It definitely gets better as the story progresses. I usually won't watch shows or movies if I have to read subtitles, but this one was worth it (language spoken was both Spanish and English). A crime thriller/suspense with some surprises throughout, a major twist and a cliffhanger at the end has me super excited for another season! The acting was great with several familiar faces, including Rosie Perez.

Apple TV, please renew Now & Then for Season 2!! We want more😊

I don't understand the low rating for this great series. I don't usually give high ratings easily, but this series is really great. It's full of thriller and suspense, with twist after twist (some of which you can see coming). The characters are well-developed, and the plot keeps you on the edge of your seat. I just wish the series was entirely in either English or Spanish rather than a mix of both, as it can be a bit distracting. The cinematography is top-notch. Just ignore all those low reviews. If you love crime, suspense, drama, or thriller series, jump on and watch it! You won't be disappointed.

I like Rosie Perez and she shines in this movie. Once I got used to the time change from "the night" to the present day it became very easy to follow even though I had to read the subtitles.

I enjoyed it so much I binge watched it, often rewinding to catch details and verbiage I missed. Watching the teen "take on the world" ideal versus real adult life was very interesting capturing what happens to your dream life doesn't happen if everything doesn't fall into place.

Don't let the naysayers stop you from watching, form your own opinion. Get past the first few episodes, it takes a bit to get started, but watching the plot and then the added subplots play out is worth the wait.

Reminds me of the I Know What You Did Last Summer film series. But with more thrillers and subplots. The 8 one-hour episodes are way too long. That softens the experience.
