Mood

Not sure if sptolomey has ever even watched part of an episode of this show as it literally doesn't feature gangs at all?? 🤔 It's about a singer and influencer. Pretty strange and sad to see such a vicious critique without... well, the critique part. Boomers hey 🙃

Moving back to the topic at hand.

This was a binger for me, I watched it all in one enjoyable Saturday afternoon.

Nicôle absolutely smash(er)ed this in her writing debut. Biting social commentary, likeable but human & flawed characters and a great soundtrack. If you enjoyed I Will Destroy You then try this!

Binged this empowering female lead drama in one extremely satisfying sitting. There is some disturbing subject matter dealt with here but it is handled with such sensitivity and understanding, that it's never a hard watch. The writing by Nicole Lecky is utterly compelling. It's hard to imagine this material being handled half so effectively by another writer. The show is also beautifully directed and produced with the most brilliant music.

Absolutely blown away by Mood. 10/10 without question.

I binge watched this on a Saturday morning and I ended the season wanting more.

I hope a second season is on the cards as I want to see the next part of sashas life.

Nothing woke about this show, so god knows what that reviewer is on about.

It's scary how people can get so wrapped up in their "brand" very truthful and modern.

Personally I think there was just a tad too much singing/rapping. But she is very talented so not too much complaint.

I needed something after finishing europhia so it was a nice little fix.

I've seen the reviews mentioning women empowerment and the need to identify with Sasha's situation to appreciate the show.

Everyone can identify with this series. It's about being lost. Finding your identity. The battle between what you don't want to do and what you are willing to do to find a way to where you want to be. Losing who you are along the way and trying to find your way back to the person you used to be.

It's about a broken home and finding the love in other people due to the lack of love by people who were supposed to love you. The people who break your heart trying to find it and the people you thought you could trust, but can't.

It's about peer pressure and the dangers that come with giving in to it. It's about our obsession with social media and forgetting that people are people and not just numbers to add to your following base.

Mood is the kind of show that expresses toxicity in such a profound way that makes you feel so uncomfortable. In the best way. Because it's a warning for those who are on the cusp of going too far and cathartic for those of us who've been in terrible situations.

Everyone can find something in this show.

Certainly had enough plot for the most part to keep me wanting to watch but the final episode was a little over-long. It's also a good warning to the curious about the dangers of apparently easy money and fair-weather friends, and was not timid about dealing with the toxicity of relationships where power is greatly imbalanced. Sadly the plot ultimately included judgements about the 'fate' awaiting so-called fallen women who are unrepentent, which I thought was odd considering the determined boot-knocking throughout.
