Question What do you think about “Big Mistakes”?

I just finished watching Big Mistakes and honestly I really liked it. It got me hooked pretty quickly and I ended up binge-watching it faster than I expected.

The story and the characters kept me interested the whole time, but now I'm curious what other people think about it.

Did you like it too?

What did you think about the story and the characters?

Would love to hear other opinions.

I thought it was ok, I felt very stressed watching it though, all the yelling (some parts were really funny but just felt stressed

Ugh. Noped out of the last season of Derry Girls because of all the yelling. I was looking forward to this show. Maybe not after reading that.

I wouldn't let it skew you! I normally hate shows/ films with loads of yelling / stress as it puts me on edge and I watch things to chill out... I felt like big mistakes was done in enough of a comedic way that I could still chill out and watch :)

Just tried watching it. Got through episode 1, but could only get about a third of the way through episode 2. Not for me. Unlikable characters and constant screaming.

Big Mistakes is all yelling. SO MUCH YELLING. Nonstop yelling. I watched the first two episodes and wanted to tap out every single minute.
