Uneven, And Dreadfully Over The Top At Times, But With An Ultimately Uplifting, And Emotional Ending.
I would say generally it's an ok series, but I would hardly call it a great one. I wonder if the fact that it's set during the time of The Troubles, maybe caused folks and reviewers to over praise it, and disregard its flaws.
I'm sorry but the young actors are simply not that great. Amateurish sometimes works in a movie, but I would say it didn't help much in the case of Derry Girls.
Possibly with some better acting, the show could have been a bit more enjoyable,
And what's up with the F bombs? Hey I'm ok with the use of them on TV, but at times it just sermed a bit much. Almost as if the writers were trying for shock. On the other hand I have been to Northern Ireland, and they do curse a lot.
