It was OK, but unrealistic at (many) times...
And most of the characters were annoying, not very well constructed including the main ones.
But I thought the actors did a very good job, though. The last episode had some particularly well written parts, I thought.
Not sure if I'll watch a second season - Maybe I'll give it a go, if everything else is on hiatus!...

I'm not really sure what's the point of this show, and if I can't stand it only because of Renée's terrible acting or because it's really that bad. She looks talks and walks like a weird barbie doll, and not in an attractive way. But wait, it is bad. The acting, the writing. I tried to continue watching it for 2-3 times just to give it another shot but it was pointless. And ! I was OK if it was not great, but watchable!... Fortunately enough, there are better shows out there. I am still looking forward to her Judy Garland portrait!..

I got really annoyed this show. I tried, going on second season, but Izzie is just a selfish annoying needy little child, and the other two are clearly going through severe midlife crisis. Every character in this show is either non-believable, or annoying. The dialogues seem forced (particularly the supposed-to-be-funny ones) and unreal and no one seems to live in the real world, with real priorities, or real lives. Maybe a teenager or a 20-something will think this is a realistic show, I don't know! But I really wish it was better written! I was looking forward to see a good show about a "poly-amorous" relationship. Guess I'll keep waiting...

This one grabbed me. Not sure it was the spandex and the workout clothes, the female fighting theme, the soundtrack, the crazy characters or everything altogether. But I definitely did not see it coming!

Saw the first episode, and couldn't watch any more. I don't know, maybe I'm missing something...
Honestly thought the acting & writing was terrible and the "heart-warming" moments were super forced. The grandma was cool though. But I expected a lot more. I miss that 70's show... Where are the good sitcoms??

It took me a while to watch this show. i always thought "I don't even like country music". Well, if you like music, in the broadest sense of it, you will enjoy the show. Music, pretty people, and a general dramatic look into the world of music, producers, singer-songwriters, and live shows.
However, truth be said - Maybe it's time to see this show go. For sure the characters will be missed. The songs remembered, even though some more than others.
Rayna is missed dearly, Scarlett doesn't have the same presence as before and new actors don't seem to be able to replace the ones that left. Even though I absolutely love Jessie I still cannot imagine Deacon recovering that fast. Not from that kind of love.
One of the things that TV shows do when they are dragged along for too long is that the story lines begin to feel absurd and unconnected from season to season.
I wouldn't like to see that happening to Nashville.

The best thing I can tell about this show is: I recommended it to everyone I know who likes to talk about shows that they're watching; That like to think about life, and to see things from different perspectives; And more and all, that enjoy quite a good show with deep and well-constructed characters! If the third season will be able to keep up? Don't really know, but the first two did not disappoint!

"Younger" is a very light show based on an almost impossible to believe premise which works ... For some reason. Although I should confess that I hope this is the last season: The story will only lose if it's stretched any further.
The highlights of the show include the handsome male characters, the clothes, the "insight" into the "millennial thinking" and watching Hillary Duff on the screen again. I also enjoy the look into the editorial world and I am sorry we don't get more than a glimpse of it. But I guess that would be a whole other show!

This show is wonderful! I just started it and I cannot stop watching it :) It's a less-dramatic-mix of gilmore girls, brothers and sisters, friday night lights and party of five... It also has a great gathering of actors (young and not so young) which gives the show a fresh, emotional and funny feeling at the end if each episode. Watch it and become a part of the Bravermans!!
