Escuela para señoritas Al Rawabi

It's like 13 reason why but Arabic story and honestly it was very interesting how the actress especially "Layan" play they role like they born with it !

The last episode was shocking and absolutely fantastic, maybe we can have another Jordanian work like this show.

Not really sure how Jordan lifestyle is, but that wasn't western like everyone is saying. Maybe some of the music, but that's about it. Lol or are westerners the only ones that have teenagers that bully others? If they threw a McDonald's in there I would have agreed, but other than that, very different. Honestly I like seeing a different aspect to a typical teen show and found it entertaining. Hope there is a season 2 because of that ending.

This 6-episode series is a solid production from Jordan. I like to point my opinion in specific points if you bear with me 1- Its main case (and almost all cast) are females, which is something new to Jordan and even Arabic drama.

2- The music/songs in the series are pretty solid, seem to come from different accents. I didn't like it though when Liann was lip-singing to a well-known Arabic song for 3 minutes in Ep 3 or 4. Just felt very unauthentic. Otherwise music was superior.

3- The acting was mostly well-done, you could feel the expressions of pain/anger/joy on their faces are mostly real. Occasionally though you could feel it was amateurish.

4- The accent used was the "modern" Arabic spoken in Jordan, claimed to be one spoken by the wealthy even though I don't think that's true. However it's a dialect that the cast and producer probably felt more comfortable using but it's why other reviewers were disappointed calling this series a poor representative of the authentic traditional Jordanian accent.

5- the series focus on toxic relationships between students and bullying. I don't remember this being portrayed in Arab series before despite it happening in all Jordanian schools I know of (happened in my school and every Jordanian friend of mine in other schools).

6- There are some subtle feminist messages - it's not shameful to talk about your period, how women get degraded for being in love, "the honor" of a girl being permanently lost for sending a slightly inappropriate picture. I like how subtle but important these messages were.

I understand if others didn't like the series as much as I did. Possibly other men won't relate to it as much. But the ones who gave it a "1" are Jordanians triggered by a strong female cast, the discussion of tabooed topics, girls not being dressed very conservatively, the modern Jordanian accent....etc. The themes that this series focuses on are very widespread in Jordanian schools and in the society. Tina Shomali tried to avoid controversial scenes (no kissing) or language (no heavy swearing) in order to not distract from the main focus of the series.

Overall I think she and the crew did a great job.

Ignore all the haters and prepare your self to watch something that could be considered a step forward for Jordanian tv. Criticise constructively, its how we can support them.

I don't know how people can't see that we suffer from the problem the series talks about in our society

It reflected young women problems in an Arabic private school in a really good way , keep up the good work Tima!!
