    Entertaining Fashionable & Educational!!!

    Loved It All! Awesome Actresses! Entertaining Fashionable & Educational!!! These writers and directors were so on point. I started watching this a while ago, but stopped within the 1st few mins. I completely forgot to go back. I'm soooo glad I backtracked. This series had me begging for more. I'm a major fan of these women and men now. More, Please!

    Funny.

    The culture is on point, and I get a lot of laughs. It's great to see black women as the main - so refreshing - although what would be more refreshing and powerful is to see black women rock their natural hair. The wigs are dialing the black girl magic a little down.

    But the production is great, and I enjoy the dynamics of the characters.

    Really great for women (and men too)

    In a world where women are pressured to look better than they are, and live above their means, this show serves as a great tool of financial education to guide them into sensible organisation of their finances and the benefits of delayed gratification. Oh, and it's entertaining too! Fantastic acting!

    I don't know what's with the music production though, seems like the same songs were on repeat in every episode.

    Can We Please All Watch This?

    What a fantastic TV series! My wife and I enjoyed it from beginning to end. The characters are four fashionable women with interesting jobs and various not-so-great relationships. Sound familiar? Sex & the City with black people? No. Even better. Because, woven into every episode is advice for women on financial matters, even to the point of a short text highlight that states the educational point of that episode. Sounds heavy-handed, I know, but it isn't. The series is set in Lagos, Nigeria and there are often portals into understanding the city itself, as well as following the young women's lives.

    We have so many younger friends (male and female) who manage their own money so poorly and yet don't seem to clue in to the mess they are making for themselves. This series has the answers, and they are couched in an entertaining TV series about beautiful women in stylish clothes navigating through their 20s and 30s. A masterpiece! Let's all watch it, okay?
