Wedding Season

Imagine the pitch meeting - A Carry On script written by Quentin Tarantino and directed by Snatch era Guy Ritchie. That's basically what you get in this series, a mash-up of Four Weddings And A Funeral, This Life and every murder mystery you've ever seen or read.

The Wedding Season of the title is the period during which a group of friends attend various weddings of friends and associates. At each one our hero Stefan encounters Katie and is drawn into her increasingly chaotic personal life, peaking when Katie is accused of murdering her husband and his family on ger wedding day.

Using flashbacks, what ensues is a chase across the UK and the US while Stefan and Katie try to uncover the killer or killers, evade the police, prove their innocence and stay alive. With help from Stefan's friends they gradually unravel the mystery while Stefan discovers exactly who his mystery girl really is.

The series is genuinely funny and the characters likeable. The series hinges entirely on whether or not you take to Rosa Salazar's Manic Pixie Dream Girl and if you buy into Stefan's obsession with her. We did (I watched with my parents, both in their mid-late 70's) but I can understand many who don't. We enjoyed both leads and the supporting cast and binged the whole series in two sittings, one on the day of a wedding!

The series has plenty of twists and the plot is somewhat contrived but with shortish (average 32 minute) episodes it doesn't outstay its welcome. The series does end on a cliffhanger which, if unresolved, provides an ending which is in keeping with what has gone before.

This is the perfect series for watching in one or two sessions on a winter's night and I would recommend it, just not if you're planning a wedding in the immediate future.

When I started watching it I thought it was crap the main guy was bloody annoying! However after a slow start it really picked up its funny it's tense it's gripping it has some flaws but it had a lot of potential I couldn't stop watching it a lot of twists and turns a lot going on it leaves you at the edge of your seat! Give it a go it's worthy of a second season without a doubt. There's a lot of action and the cast puts in 100% more than that. The cast itself is amazing a lot of maturity as the show goes on and like I said it's slow to start with but as you carry on it quickens up and it's definitely worth it.

This show is really so good, intriguing, thematic, Great acting, fun characters, moral questions, not too too dark. It's crazy what doesn't take, there's almost TOO many good short series now that ppl miss the really good ones (although even older that really good deep scifi Netflix show with Emma stone-nobody talked about it but it was really good). Also Rosa is amazing! Loved her in maze runner-Brenda deserved more! She's like Aubrey plaza before Aubrey plaza and Jenna Ortega before Jenna Ortega. It's crazy she hasn't become more popular/famous. I hope she gets another good project.

The ending is abrupt but totally in line with the tone and themes of the entire show so it doesn't feel too jilting. I don't even think they meant it to be a cliffhanger? I think they just really wanted to end the show there purposely.

I enjoyed this series and binged all episodes in 1 night. If you understand the "wink"' (we're having FUN with this and you should too!), it was fun and enjoyable. I agree that Katie was "annoying" but her ever changing story (lies) was what kept my attention and was the fun. There were enough twists to keep me from predicting the next thing and the jumping from multiple past stories to present was well done.

The best aspect for me was the enduring college friendships that made an unlikely group of people "family".

Don't take it too seriously, just watch for fun and be entertained. There's a cliff hanger in the last episode and I hope it returns for a second season.

Between Katie & Stefan is love at first sight...but things are not so plain and simple. She's on a dark path of vendetta against her fiancé and he's unlucky in love matters. Nevertheless, the stars will unite them, at least in trying to stay alive and uncovering the dark secrets behind the bloodbath happened at her wedding.

Wedding season is a witty, funny and compelling Brit TV series that mixes Rom-Com, spy story, thriller and dark comedy in a unique way: the cast is really brilliant (most of all Rosa Salazar!) and the episodes are not too much long and vey entertaining. You can feel the story on your skin and empathize with the two protagonists.

You have to give it a chance and you won't regret it. The only critic I have is the open ending and the fact that it was canceled after just one season: we need at least other 2 seasons!
