You & Me

There is no comedy here. There's not even a whole lot of romance.

This is a drama about humans and how they live with grief. As someone who lives with real debilitating grief it has some very well written parts and I enjoyed how it played out across multiple timelines. The storytelling is well done.

I just wanted it to be better. Each episode is like a punch to the stomach. I kept coming back for more because I quite liked the actors in it but it was tough in parts.

It's worth a watch once, I couldn't go through it again. Just be warned if you are going for something light and sweet because this is not it.

Yes, this has been billed as something it wasn't. I went into it thinking light-hearted dramedy but soon realised that is not what it is. Should the rating be punished for this error? No. A bittersweet tale of lives connecting in the aftermath of grief? Yes. It is a well-written drama highlighting love and loss at an age where many of their peers have yet to experience, to their fortune, what that means. The 1* does not reflect the show, only what the reviewer's little expectation was based on a marketing tagline. I accidentally stumbled upon this and found a cleverly written contemporary human drama.

It gets going straight away and brings so much emotion in the highs and lows of the story. There is nothing worse than drama that is slow to get going and only gets interesting in the last episode but this isn't one of them. In the first episode you get to experience so much of the characters happiness, struggles and turmoil. The actors were all very good and a pleasure to watch. I had to watch all 3 episodes one after another as I was so interested in the story and what would happen next. I'd say the only downside was I wish there was at least 1 more episode as I was so invested in the story but I'd probably of said the if there was 4 episodes as you never want something that good to end.

All in all it the best thing I've watched in a long time, the actors were good and well cast, and the drama itself is well produced, that's why it's a 10/10 review from me.

The strongest thing about 'You & Me' was the cast, with three very strong lead performances and good supporting actors throughout. This is a romantic drama rather than a Romcom, more 'Love Story' than 'When Harry Met Sally'.

The production values were good and it was well made all round, the only niggle was the synth soundtrack which felt a bit tacked on and added nothing.

I liked the story which had great twists and turns and was told in two timeframes, the present and flashbacks working up to the present. I think if the story had been told as it happened it might have worked even better.

The script was good, occasionally a bit theatrical but it worked and it was well-paced. If you enjoy romantic dramas give it a go, its a good watch, its upbeat and the three episodes fly by.

I almost stopped watching it because of the tragedy at the beginning and how depressing it seemed,but I am glad I stuck with it.

The acting is so good it was hard to take your eyes off of it. Then I recognized the actress from "The end of the f..cking world". And the chemistry between the characters is very good . It gave me Normal People vibes. Well written story, very good acting, great choice in casting.

It's the kind of story that shocks you in the beginning and then you expect it to be tragic and depressing all the way to the end, but then it gets you hooked and hope arises and you can't stop watching because you need to see how it ends now.

I highly recommend watching.
