Na Estrada com o Ex

If you've got a few hours to spare, you can give it a go. It's got some decent story, sort of likeable characters, and a little bit annoying choices with a pinch of rom-com clichés. If that's your type of series, then I would definitely recommend watching it. The humor is lighthearted, and while some of the twists feel predictable, there's enough charm to keep you engaged. The chemistry between the leads is enjoyable, even if it occasionally feels forced. Overall, it's a fun, easy watch that doesn't take itself too seriously and leaves you feeling entertained. Perfect for a lazy weekend binge!

Definitlely recommend watching this show - especially if the rom com genre is the one for you. It feels like a bit of a throwback to the classic rom com era. Overally the show is a really characterful series which you can binge very easily. Emma Appleton is fantastic as the female lead and the supporting characters are very good, there are also some great cameos throughout. The episodes are funny and there's some great humour sprinkled keep you entertained and engaged. The series itself is really nicely shot and there are some unexpected but really great twists as you go through. Highly recommend!

Loved this show. The story is about two ex partners being thrown together on a trip to a friends wedding - joined by some great company (for the viewers if not for the characters). Flashbacks to how they met and the increasingly complex reasons for the breakup ensue. The show reflects the complexities of relationships and friendships without being too earnest- something a lot of romcoms fail to do. Throw in a great soundtrack, stunning scenery and strong performances and you have a great show.

Great use of flashbacks as the initially unthinkable chemistry between the leads is explained so you are fully rooting for them by the end. Lots of fun but also has some good themes. Does the trick perfectly for its genre and I binged it in a day.

This is a reasonable reworking of a best selling romance novel. The story more or less follows the book but anyone who's read it will be wondering what on earth happened during casting. Emma Appleton is very good in the lead female role but Laurie Davidson was so wrong in the role of Dylan. And it clearly didn't work for the actors either: there is absolutely no on screen chemistry between them. The support actors, however, were rather good and saved it for me. The story is a bit meh, drawn out over 6 episodes with multiple flashbacks. The last episode has about 5 minutes of plot and was pretty much unnecessary. A 2 hour film would have been a lot better. It's no One Day or Flatshare but is pleasant enough for an evening watch.

Thankfully I read the book before watching this because if I hadn't I wouldn't have read the book!

The book is brilliant. This is loosely based on the book but so much is different. Important things! Things that make the story complete and relatable and relevant.

Firstly, why couldn't have been set in the UK? Why did they have to be abroad? Secondly, why is her sister in a lesbian relationship, and having sneaky talks about Addi not being welcome at their house anymore? The novel is huge on that family bond. The tv show rips that bond to shreds!

None of the characters are likeable in the tv adaptation. Do not get me started on Marcus! It's hugely disappointing. The flat share was brilliant. Maybe give that a go instead!
