Popularity Papers

Popularity Papers is based on a book series by Amy Ignatow, I haven't read the books but will looking for them since seeing the show!

A fun, engaging and on point show about two pre-teens trying to figure out school life and who they each are. There are trials and tribulations, fun, overcoming fears and stories about kids these days and their diverse families and backgrounds.

I love that one family has a single mom and the other has two dads! Love seeing more representation of all types of families, it helps show that we may not all have the same kind of family but they're all valid and accepted. The Graham-Chang dads are amazing and I love their personalities and approach to raising their daughter and helping her navigate life. Can't wait to see more in season 2 please!

Popularity Papers is delightful, it will have you laughing and reflecting at the same time. This show is a perfect blend of humour and heart, with a charming cast of characters that are sure to capture your attention.

It is incredibly diverse, featuring characters from a wide range of backgrounds and identities. This diversity is not just tokenism either; each character is given their own unique personality and storyline that allows them to shine on their own.

Beyond its commitment to inclusiveness, Popularity Papers tackles important issues in a fun and accessible way. Whether it's discussing topics like peer pressure, friendship, or self-esteem, the show manages to impart valuable lessons without ever feeling preachy.

Overall, Popularity Papers is a must-watch for anyone who loves a good coming-of-age story with a healthy dose of wit and warmth. With its commitment to inclusiveness and its thoughtful approach to tackling important issues, this show is sure to become a classic for years to come.

No way this show is amazing Morgan literally slayed that like holy cow 10/10 Will watching again real soon.

I must say that the story was pretty wonderful in all, the characters refined to a perfect crystal's edge. The cinematography literally blew my mind in a way no entertainment has before or probably will again

In retrospect, the title was confusing as the papers themselves weren't all that popular, but that's a small detail to nitpick at/with and it's something I can put past and move on from.

If you want to see a pretty cool, sick show, watch Popularity Papers. You WILL NOT regret it for real.

Why is it still common for western shows to overlook and exacerbate the issue of Asian stereotyping? Julie is in the same grade as Lydia and their classmates but being clearly shorter than everyone else? As an Asian viewer, this is disappointing to see. Not all Asians are short. History repeating its mistakes, generations passing down the same discriminatory views, and systemic discrimination continuing to be an overlooked issue in the west largely rises from the expression of cultural identity in the media. Please be mindful of the diverse audience and what they can perceive and learn from your content. Especially children who are still developing their perception of the world.

This is a fun show. Very family oriented and funny! Definitely a must watch! I love the representation and the amazing actors!

The girls bring the book series to life, and are just perfect in their roles. I couldn't ask for a better adaptation from the books. I'm sure Amy Ignatow is excited to see her stories come to life if such a meaningful way.

The only complaint I have is how long it took for this series to show up to the US!!! It's been the highlight of my month and I'm talking about it with all of my friends!

Everyone needs to add this to their watch list. Also lots of love to the adult cast like Michael Chan! They really add to the amazing show and I can't wait for a season 2!!!!
