Dare Me

Great show !! Complex characters, wish there were more seasons

Honestly loved this show!! It had a 'Skins" (UK) feel to it & Beth certainly reminded me of Effy (Looks and personality). Some things don't make complete sense in the show and I'm assuming that was because a season 2 was planned. That however is no longer happening with the show being cancelled for season 2. Which honestly has me so angry!! They want to move more towards reality TV, UGH!

Would love to see a season 2, however it doesn't seem likely. I'll dream about the possibilities this show could have had.

This show is not horrible. In fact, it is interesting enough for me to keep watching each episode as it appears on my DVR. However, this show hardly keeps me longing for the next episode. It's a show that is good enough to watch when there is nothing else on, but is by no means a "must see". It's interestingly boring if that makes any sense. The characters are all unlikable, and not in a good way that makes them captivating or sympathetic villains. They are stereotypical mean girls that aren't interesting enough to love or love to hate. The adults aren't any better than the kids as there is not a single role model for the cheerleaders because the adults are all flawed. It tries to sound "deeper" than it really is by having the narrator use phrases like "it was beautiful until it went to far" or "nothing is as scary as a bored teenage girl", but it comes across a little like its trying too hard to be a groundbreaking teenage drama like 13 Reasons Why or Euphoria. I am about 3 episodes in so we will see if it improves as it progresses.

This show made me feel many feelings. It wasn't what I was expecting, but I loved the cast cheer-leading and relationships between the people. Who to trust who not to trust and one clear message always question if your thoughts are your own or from another person.

It's really sad this show is cancelled and we don't see the end of it.

I kinda expected to see some negative reviews on IMDb as it's basically a forum for whiners to complain these days. And since the cast is mostly female I definitely expected some people to see it as pushing a "feminist agenda". But when reading the negative reviews it seemed these people actually did give the show a chance but it just wasn't for them. Which is fair enough but when saying watching the show was a waste of time, why waste more time writing a review on it?? I never bother writing reviews for something I didn't enjoy. In fact I only ever write reviews for things that not only I enjoyed but I feel are getting a lot of hate for no reason. Like I said, this has become a place for people who simply like to complain. Probably more than watching tv or movies. I mean one user didn't like the show because it was about a cheerleading squad. Erm you could see that from the trailer which is something you should always watch first. So they can't really blame the show for their own stupidity.

The show, in my opinion is good. If, like me, you enjoy mystery dramas, I would say give it a go. If it's not for you, move on to something else. If I want a critical opinion about a show. I'll read something by an actual critic who gets paid to point out flaws. Not some random with a superiority complex who states their own opinions like they're facts. If one of those types is reading this, you're not that special. No matter what your mum tells you.
