À moi la nuit, toi le jour

Since I've read a book just a month ago I was very excited to watch its tv adaptation.

I loved Jessica and Anthony, they were both great and I liked their chemistry. Actually all of the actors were good.

Sometimes this series felt a little slow, sometimes boring, but at the end I liked it. I think it didn't need to be 6 episodes, maybe 4 would have been enough. They have changed a bit of what was written in a book but that really didn't matter.

I give it 6 stars because I would love this series to be more dynamic and I would love another music in the show because it was too background.

Check it out.

I stumbled across this series by accident and never regretted watching it for a second.

I decided to leave a short review from myself - an amateur.

Returning to the series...

First, what can be noted is the general visual - a pleasant and juicy picture, just like on the cover.

Secondly, the atmosphere of a diverse :) and modern London, filled with living characters, easily immerses the viewer in the action of events. P. S. We especially observe this effect when viewed with headphones.

And thirdly, although the series is not intricate in terms of plot, it is still quite entertaining and, as a result, after watching, you feel lightness and enjoyment .

It is important to mention that I did not expect anything from this series and for me the presence of high-quality shooting in technical terms and the absence of conspicuous inconsistencies and stupid actions of the characters in the plot are already sufficient requirements for me to like the series.

Though, this ground was already covered in the movie... the night we never met. Basically Tiffany needs a cheap flat and Leon needs money so they make an arrangement where Tiffany gets the apartment from 8 pm to 8 am and Leon from 8 am to 8 pm. Leon is a nurse who works at night. So, per the roommate agreement they never meet and only communicate by post it notes.. until hijinks ensue.

Frankly the series was too long. It came to its natural conclusion around episode 4 and you could tell they were dragging it out. The non picked love interests were total tropes that were a chore to watch because they were such horrible people. And finally I think this would have been better if they had Jonah Hauer-King as Leon. It is glaring that he is in this but only has a small insignificant part.

On the plus side thank you to the actor who does play Leon (Anthony Welsh) for creating a unique character -- a true introvert -- that is interesting and compelling. But I never necessarily got the feeling he had any feelings for Tiffany or anyone in the world. Even his concern about his brother seemed like stubbornness.

Watch this then read the book. The series is kind of watchable. I just finished the book and went straight to watch the series but this series just shares the idea that a man and woman share a bed night and day but nothing else is the same.

The best friend at work in the book is now a jealous work rival.

Leon's nice girlfriend is snoopy and jealous and interfering.

When Tiffany calls her best friend who is a male his flat mate is shown stopping him talking to her so they can kiss.

This series shows women to be mean and manipulative and back stabbing which is 100% opposite from the message in the book.

And tiff, mr prior, Justin and hollys character are someone new altogether.

The book is wonderful uplifting look at a woman who is an individual free spirit but has been made to feel small and useless through abuse but through all kinds of female support she sees she has been used badly and tries to move forward. The romance goes alongside the friendships. Here women are all against each other and only a man can save you!

I could go on describing how all the wonderful feminist values the book had have been pulverised in this series but really just read the book.

I really liked the acting and the story, the music not so much. Jessica and Anthony were quite natural and very good together. I couldnt stop watching cause I wanted to see when Leon would have got rid of his terrible girlfriend and Tiffany her abnoxious boyfriend. I really liked the Brighton scenery, reminded me of old times. Since I havent read the book I can be no expert but It was more like a romantic dramedy than a comedy, I think. With a different soundrack it would have been great! Ok, maybe 6 episodes were too many but then again 4 episodes wouldnt be enough! Dont miss it! You should definitely give it a go!
