Gestern waren wir noch Kinder

Really good and well-made series with a believable plot and sensational acting performances - especially by the young up-and-coming actors. Finely tuned music and very appropriate song selection indicates a lot of attention to detail! Bravo!

The series has a great arc of suspense and the viewer is constantly puzzling over why what happened.

Julia Beautx plays really excellent the role Office Vivian, even she is no trained actress. Also very good and credible: Rieke Seja as young Anna! The plot moves the spectators to beautiful but also a bit creapy locations in southern Germany.

All in all a german serial highlight of 2023!

Acting is ok at best. Cheque collecting otherwise. Writing though is horrible. So many improbabilities so many holes and more wooden dialogue than you can throw a stick at. Series tries hard to impress but fails on every level. Why can the Scandinavians and the British do this so effortlessly but the Germans fail miserably? Sky produced The Pass is an exemption as is Babylon Berlin but this, sorry, is glossy thrash. I'm sure the producers haven't spend as much time on this dribble as I have trying to come up with ever more and different ways to tell you just how bad it is. Oh and the soundtrack is the opposite is subtle. In your face emo ding dong.

Embarrassing TV series financed by compulsory fees, which was only created as a job creation measure for a narccissistic untalented Youtube girlie. Don't know what is any good here. It is a typical lame German TV series for female Gen Z teenagers without brains. And just because i have to fill this place with another 185 characters i must write thist text a bit longer than i wanted. Okay, what could i say anymore? I don't want to see Youtubers in series. They have their own foolish bubble. Can they please just stay in it? Most of them are just plain stoopid and trash, and so is the whole series.

The storyline is interesting and the acting is good especially from young Peter played by Damian Hardung whose emotional moments really stand out. I particularly enjoyed ep 2 where you could see how he was struggling under the guilt of having killed the family and going through fits of jealousy. The direction could be better. It ends in a thrill as well which scared me.

Plot: When Peter snaps his actions cause his family ties to be broken forever, catapulting his three children into turmoil. His past finally catches up with him, also affecting the intertwined fates of three associated families.

The plot is really interesting and intriguing but the horrible acting and cast is ruining everything.

The best part is, honestly, some of the music throughout each episode...

I watched it in OV - and that's my mother tongue - but I don't think that it gets better when one would watch it in the dubbed version in other languages (don't know if there are other languages available).

I'm not sure what the online hype is all about, but apparently in Germany one of the (very bad "actors") is a Influencer...

Throughout the series there are a quite a few twist-worthy moments which are really great from a screenplay writing perspective but could have been portrayed much better. The very terrible, horrible and sad acting remains, however, and takes away all the great twists and unforeseen, of the - as such - good story.
