Alexander K @tom889696 Dec 8 this how is an insult to human intelligence See more maya B. @luvekelsey Dec 4 this is was actually good for a ya teen drama See more Kyle J @KyleJarrett Dec 4 im going to be realistic, it was predictable, but what teen romances aren't anymore. the show offered us a great insight into many issues in season 1, read the book or not, it still has surprising turns. the love triangle of Jackie and the brothers Cole and Alex, her loneliness, the struggle of a permanent maternal figure, financial strain, jealousy and many other issues were discussed and shown brilliantly in the show. it may have similarities to the summer I turned pretty, but who cares, the show was exciting and had me entranced the whole time. while it differs from the book at times, not by a landslide it makes it more fun to watch. the show offers us so much watching, if there wasn't a limit on the review size I would write forever, but I am constrained to these words. the ending was done the best, Jackie realises she wants Cole but cannot have him following her months with Alex, leading the way to her leaving for New York which was very mature and a great ending to season 1 See more Cat M Sep 23 My Life With the Walter Boys had the potential to be a heartfelt coming-of-age story filled with romance, family bonds, and personal growth, but unfortunately, it falls short in execution. The premise is promising: a girl starting over with a big new family in a completely different environment. However, the show leans far too heavily on predictable teen drama tropes instead of building genuine emotional connections. Many of the storylines feel rushed, repetitive, or underdeveloped, leaving the plot without real depth or freshness. The pacing is another major issue. Episodes often drag, focusing on clichés instead of advancing character growth or meaningful story arcs. Even moments that should have been emotionally impactful are weakened by shallow dialogue and lack of buildup. While the cast shows effort, the writing doesn’t give them enough room to shine. Relationships feel forced rather than natural, and character development is inconsistent, making it hard to truly invest in anyone’s journey. On a positive note, the show does capture some sweet moments of family life and has a few charming interactions. The production quality is polished, and the Colorado setting is visually appealing. Unfortunately, these strengths aren’t enough to outweigh the weak storytelling and lack of originality. Overall, My Life With the Walter Boys feels more like a missed opportunity than a memorable drama. For viewers hoping for a series with heart, depth, and compelling characters, this season is likely to disappoint.

The plot has more holes than it has story. The boys are all so bad at acting it felt like a shitty home made show with lots of money See more rameneformaggio Sep 7 Empty and unnecessary show, I really tried to like it but the series is extremely flat, the story almost doesn't exist. After finishing it you don't even remember what happened as much as the emptiness it leaves you with. Also, shame on Netflix, because what do you mean you keep canceling good shows, which are also quite appreciated by audiences and critics, to renew series that almost nobody has seen and which have such a low appreciation index, what's the point of it?
