Me

This is written in mid July 24 just after the official release. The reviews of ME are all over the map, and that's just not fair. First and foremost, it is a teen show show aimed at teens. It is not trying to be the next BUFFY. Second, it is produced in Canada for a fraction of a fraction of what a similar production would cost in Hollywood. The reviews that keep harping on production values and SFX seem to have missed this fact, or deliberately misunderstood it. Third, it is genuinely clever -- mostly -- and offers a fresh take on old problems. The over-the-top reviews are too high, and the trash reviews are unfair, and a bit on the mean side. Try it out for what it is, and give it a chance. ((Designated "IMDb Top Reviewer."

I finished all 10 episodes asking myself the same questions. Why did I watched it, and why would I want to continue watching any more. The stories are just so incredibly juvenile that it's very hard to find any excitement or fun. Also the supernatural abilities were very poorly used in the plot. The story meanders into ridiculous situations and ends with ridiculous outcomes. Somehow I managed to get through all of the episodes of season 1, but looking back I still wonder how I was able to muster that much patience for it. It was a little like watching Saturday Cartoons, you have to just turn your brain off and go with it. Only the pay off wasn't there, and afterwards, none of it felt worthwhile.

I genuinely enjoyed the first season of Me. I think it highlights and address pre teen and teen issues while being able to make it entertaining and really well paced. Me and my mom watched it in one night and were super bummed when we reached episode 10 (because it was the last episode)! I loved the diversity of the cast and the inclusivity, the story line was also really great and it was really easy to follow the storyline although there were some points that I didn't feel made sense but made sense earlier but that was me not realizing it was a recap lol. I enjoyed this and I really didn't find it cheesy or corny, this was a pretty well done first season and I hope to see more!

I found that the story telling is not good, like the main star saying about himself at the beginning of the show. The producers in order to make a 20 min show using foreshadowing and review for half of that. So a 20 min show becomes 10 cause we have already seen in other episodes. Then they repeat the same thing through the episodes. It's like they need a filler to make the 20 min show. It's annoying and is very bad story telling.

I just wish they would stop being a cheap company and actually do the filming to make the show full. I think that if this show is not to be cancelled than stop the poor editing and make the show properly.

Dilshad Vadsaria is amazing. Her talented acting and ability to fit the role created an atmosphere for excellent screen presence. Everyone else, very average and basic performance, in the "needs improvements" arena. Each of these actors did ok, but was not really "selling" the role. The writing did not help, as the storyline was way below the standard I would expect from apple production. The show is riddled with painfully obvious foreshadowing, and subtle "hints" to the audience, it's very lazy writing lacking creativity. Overall the production was not terrible, plenty of funding spent and it doesn't look cheap. It's edited well, someone deserves an award for that. Can't say the same for the script.
