The Manny

Poorly written and a horrible portrayal of working women .. whoever worked on this is very far removed from reality.

The first episode was saturated in stupidity.

Extremely insulting to business professional women who actually know how to manage their children and home life.

If she had been employed for anyone other than her father, she would've been out of a job.

The amount of times she bailed on her responsibilities because of "no nanny" was ludicrous and a weak excuse at best.

Her children were old enough to know how to act, yet were spoiled brats allowed to run amuck.

I felt no sympathy for them and didn't like any of their characters.

The youngest needed to learn manners and was in dire need of basic home training.

AND (shocker!) she was divorced - the father was never around to help out with kids but could take vacations with his much younger mistress.

*gag*

The eye candy of the "manny" is the only reason for the 3 stars and even that was being overly generous.

I don't know why I continue to renew my Netflix subscription because all they can manage to churn out is flops.

Light, easy, funny.

I get addicted to the series. The episodes are well connected. I don't want to skip any. I did not realize that I was streaming at episode 2 after watching for 3 days intermittently.

The characters are loved. They characters are well matched and acting was excellent and natural. Even the kids did very well. Having a piglet as pet was also fun, never thought it could be domesticated.

Mexico is beautiful. Glad to discover new places, modern architecture, country side scenes. What a relief from the US-Mexico border news.

We need more films like this. Thank you for producing it. Congratulations to the cast and its producers.

The Manny was a good story, though something about it doesn't let the audience invest in it too deeply. All of the characters were well sketched out, and even the children were written as reasonable people, which is a new thing. Maybe it would have been more impactful if it had been a few episodes shorter. The show ending also was not good. Shows like this should have like 20 to 25 episodes.do they dont they get together no one knows. I think season 2 should be about them getting married and she getting pregnant. If not then why would you make a season 2. I would loe to see another season thank you.

This series might not aim to tackle the world's complex issues-I stumbled upon it after reading a critique that seemed to miss its lighthearted essence. It's been ages since I've savored a romantic comedy this carefree, so far removed from reality that it echoes the seamless endings of festive holiday films. For aficionados of such cinematic delights, this one's a gem! It exudes a vibe reminiscent of Mexican soap operas, a touch that adds to its charm.

The magic lies not in its realism but in the delightful chemistry between the characters. Their interactions, nuanced relationships, and quirky dynamics are the true heartbeat of this show. Each episode gracefully unveils the plot, threading through expected tropes while occasionally surprising with some twists-a welcome deviation from the anticipated path.

Ultimately, the series accomplishes precisely what it sets out to do-offer a delightful escape. It might not mirror reality, but it excels in whisking audiences away on a charming, entertaining ride. For that reason, I'd confidently rate it a solid 10/10. It leaves a refreshing aftertaste, a reminder that sometimes, embracing the whimsical and predictable can be an immensely satisfying experience.

This romantic Comedy is not heavy dramatic. It is light, funny and romantic.

We did not want to watch horror, terror, violent or over sexual series. We were rewarded with a funny, not dramatic, fresh romantic comedy.

AWe stayed till 3.00 am trying to watch the whole lot, we had to wait till the next day to finish it.

We could not get enough of it.

We are sick and tired of the same Hollywood stories.

We highly recommend it. The story was different, touching on old fashion family stereotypes and how the world is changing and family roles are changing.

The actors really portrayed romance, so for those who feel like something romantic, fresh, new and light. Don't miss this romantic comedy.
