Fantasy Island

Cancer, verbal abuse, body shaming, and sexuality... These are sometimes difficult issues to discuss and I think the first episode does this quite well. I see a lot of negative reviews for this show, but they all seem superficial when compared to the subject matter. Watch the show and judge for yourself.

Show is entertaining. But Ruby needs to go! That fake southern accent is the worst.

Someone commented in the reviews that this series is catered to women. Well I watched 6 episodes so far and yes, it is definitely all women. Men are props and women are all the focus. Not very much diversity since they all cater towards diversity.

I liked this. I'm not understanding the "1" reviews. I watched the original as a kid in the 70s. It was always a program that addressed what you think your fantasy is, might not actually be your fantasy. Both then and now, this show required some huge suspension of disbelief. I think the reboot captured all of that. I like the reference at the very beginning to the forever awesome Ricardo Montalban. The newscaster story was a bit disjointed, because of editing or something...I don't know. Anyway, I like the casting, the scenery, and the overall feel. It's worth a watch.

I wanted to like this so much but I just can't. The cast is very talented and attractive but the storylines are mostly boring and stilted. I've watched every episode so much but only one or two stories really moved me! I hope they improve the storytelling soon or I'm afraid this show may be canceled.
