Teto Para Dois

Watch this then read the book. The series is kind of watchable. I just finished the book and went straight to watch the series but this series just shares the idea that a man and woman share a bed night and day but nothing else is the same.

The best friend at work in the book is now a jealous work rival.

Leon's nice girlfriend is snoopy and jealous and interfering.

When Tiffany calls her best friend who is a male his flat mate is shown stopping him talking to her so they can kiss.

This series shows women to be mean and manipulative and back stabbing which is 100% opposite from the message in the book.

And tiff, mr prior, Justin and hollys character are someone new altogether.

The book is wonderful uplifting look at a woman who is an individual free spirit but has been made to feel small and useless through abuse but through all kinds of female support she sees she has been used badly and tries to move forward. The romance goes alongside the friendships. Here women are all against each other and only a man can save you!

I could go on describing how all the wonderful feminist values the book had have been pulverised in this series but really just read the book.

Since I've read a book just a month ago I was very excited to watch its tv adaptation.

I loved Jessica and Anthony, they were both great and I liked their chemistry. Actually all of the actors were good.

Sometimes this series felt a little slow, sometimes boring, but at the end I liked it. I think it didn't need to be 6 episodes, maybe 4 would have been enough. They have changed a bit of what was written in a book but that really didn't matter.

I give it 6 stars because I would love this series to be more dynamic and I would love another music in the show because it was too background.

Check it out.

Usually book to tv series conversions are pretty poorly done but I thoroughly enjoyed this one! I read the book about 6 months ago so it's been a while but the series seemed to incorporate all of the best elements that I did remember and kept the characters feeling 'real'. The relationships in the series were good, although I feel like it could have been a little longer (developed the brother storyline a bit more) as some parts were way more important in the book, but what they did choose to keep was really well done. All in all I would certainly recommend and will probably watch again in the future!

Absolutely loved this series, not too cheesy , you know what's going to happen from the start but , it's such a programme with really sad moments in it , happy moments, funny moments and 100% brilliant watch.

Really liked the unusual set out of the story with the flat share , I don't know if this happens in real life but , as soon as this series started , episode 1 had me hooked , such likeable characters and a great cast , all the actors were amazing and Tiffany and Leon , 2 absolutely great looking people , but sorry Justin , I know he was acting but what an absolute butt hole , great program.

I tried this and gave up half way through the first episode. Independently about 6 months later, I picked up the book and was hooked. I've now gone back and can see what is off with the series. The characters are simplified beyond recognition. The charm of the book is that as they reveal themselves to each other, they are revealed to you. Here there is nothing to reveal. Also the tone is completely different, hard and slightly unpleasant, drama for the sake of it. I don't really care about these people unlike those who inhabit the book. This is ok entertainment but not for me. The actors do a decent job with what they've got but to my view that is corrupted, shoddy material.
