Manual para señoritas

From the moment from opening, this is a unique staging that is carried out with brilliance. Fast paced dialogue and plot. That capture the viewer. This set and costume alone, are breathtaking. Let alone the architecture. Every shot is a visual feast. The actress who is the heroine is wonderful. This is a very unique Netflix entry.

There is a Sense of wit and comedy, that is bracing and a breath of fresh air. The idea of a woman's voice and power in a time when neither were valued is part of the fun there is a sense of comedy raced brace against The feeling of a game afoot. The pace is very enjoyable

I look forward to coming back to review the series when I have completed watching it so far the beginning is extremely promising.

The music choices do not always work for me especially the choice to put modern tunes with historical storytelling. But I admire the attempt.

I was so excited to watch this show, especially knowing it stars Nadia de Santiago (who I loved in Cable Girls) and Álvaro Mel (from A Perfect Story).

The story reminded me a lot of Cable Girls in that it was definitely a period piece, but with fun modern twists and some hilarious music choices. The dialogue is fast-paced and really funny at times.

Visually, it's colorful and dreamy. It might not have the huge budget of Bridgerton, but I love the take on 1800s fashion, and some of the dresses were gorgeous.

I did wish for a little more spark between the leads, but Nadia de Santiago had great, natural chemistry with Carloto Cotta as the cute duke.

If you're a fan of Cable Girls, Bridgerton, or A Perfect Story, I would recommend checking this one out. It's fun, charming, and binge-worthy.

The series is as advertised. A light 1880's series, with cheeky jokes and a classic plot.

If you are looking for deep intense captivating series, this is not it.

If you are looking for something easy, warm, cute, cheesy and also well-done, go for it.

I like that no character is perfect and they try to navigate their imperfections. They are loveable and annoying at the same time. There is no truly bad guy or good guy, just normal people making a ton of bad choices and trying to navigate the consequences. It makes it more relatable and realistic.

A nice drama where everyone care about each other.

I was not sure what to expect when starting this short series. But it's a very quick watch with lovely acting, gorgeous costume design, and many very likeable characters. I really enjoyed the set designs, music choices, and casting choices that complemented the lighthearted storyline. Similar to a Brigerton vibe, but with much less scheming, backstabbing and royalty (lol), so therefore much more fun in my opinion. If you like regency era stories mixed with romantic comedies it should be a good choice for an immersive binge. Recommend this to watch for a quick pick me up. Escapism at its finest!

My mom (a recent widow) and I (a single girl) both love The Lady's Companion, to the point we didn't want Season 1 to end and are devastated we have to wait for Season 2.... There better be a Season 2. We both greatly appreciated how it tackled big emotions (i.e. Death of spouses, miscarriage, societal pressures, and the search for a husband) without feeling too heavy nor depressing. Rather, it exemplified resilience and the ability for us, particularly women, to find strength in subpar circumstances. I think we were able to relate to the characters, and it provided comedic relief to our stressful lives.
