I loved the first 65-70% or so when Max was trying to make her want a relationship with him. I LOVED it! I was wanting to either knock some sense into a wounded Eden or push her out of the way and say, "Fall in love with me instead!"

Then we had that uncertain bit of Max needing the money and Eden wanting the promotion and me wanting to bang their heads together.

And then those last 5% or so. I was happy for them.

I'm definitely interested in continuing the series at some point in the future.
  
3.5 stars, mainly because I got a bit confused in the middle bit, where the guys were trying to keep them away from Colby but treating them as friends and getting closer to them at the same time. Probably just me.

Other than that though I liked it. I liked the whole 'forever' thing, finding that one thing that you can do forever that'll make you happy. Going after what you want. Falling in love slowly. Meeting lots of great new friends. Growing up and realising that what you thought as first isn't always right. And lots of surfing.

From it's description, i expected to like this more. But i didnt.

The art-work wasnt the best--the characters seeming to change slightly from one frame to the next--never looking the same. Continuity also wasn't the best.

The wording also drove me a little mad. All the "N'" this and "N'" that. Proper down south dialogue. The sentences ran together in parts which made it hard to figure out what they were saying.

And lastly, the storyline. I didn't quite get the love at first sight thing but the rest of it was quite good.

I wouldnt say it was love at first sight but once the show gets going I couldn't bring myself to look away. It takes one or two episodes to really start up as the show starts to establish the multiple relationships and backstory for each of the characters. However once it gets started it's hard to look away, from the growingly good music throughout the show to the development clearly outlined throughout all of the characters, brings together for a wonderful show.

The Lord of the Rings was my favorite book series growing up. I compare all of the books that I read to Lord of the Rings. J.R.R. Tolkien spent so much time and effort on these books, that is it is easy to see just how incredible they are. The Two Towers does a very effective job of picking up where the first book leaves off. I love the story as we follow Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli in their adventures across Middle Earth. Tolkien does a fantastic job of building the tension and heightening this book.

The fact that I have to talk to people in film school who say that they love rap and the FIRST example they provide is Hamilton is one of the most disgusting things ever. The rapping style here is technically flawed, incredibly one note with little to no variation in rhythmic patterns and multis and as close to being off beat as possible.

Also, hot take, Lin-Manuel Miranda cannot sing. Sorry.

The only, and I MEAN ONLY reason that this is a 3/10 is the amazing performances from Daveed Diggs, Phillipa Soo and Renee Elise Goldsberry.
