dracura T @RT55150449 Aug 28 butchered smell sad See more Cat H @RT75156456 04/23/2025 I've seen the film & the tv series. They are quite different, and the tv series takes you on a different journey to the film. Its good to see the character development. And bond between them. This TV series is the best I've ever seen. It is raw drama. Nothing is too much. It's hard to describe what the show is about. Friendships & life in the 80s-90. The fashion, hairstyles. The bond in friendships as they grow up. The trauma they have faced. Humour in Woodys parents. The cast chemistry is amazing. The fall outs, the make ups. The pain, the romance. Its everything. A must watch. But will everyone like it? Maybe not. But those of us who love it, really do. See more Read all reviews
