Absolutely Captivating
A very raw gritty look into the darker side of London's ghettos & the reality of everyday life done flawlessly in this 3 part series from composition to the cast it's a masterclass and definatley Top of its game.. a solid 10/10
So glad Netflix brought this back!
I highly recommend Top Boy for any fan of gritty, intense dramas! I didn't watch it until recently because of everything I heard about it and I'm so glad I finally gave it a chance and that Netflix made the incredible choice of bringing it back because it's as good as ever!
Fantastic
Oh my god Netflix have gone and done it. They have made a great series even better. I think this new revival is even better than the original made by channel 4. Hopefully they commission another series.
Misjudged n avoided until now
I've largely avoided this series because I thought it would be bad story bad acting with posh drama school teens as gangsters n hood rats. I was wrong ... It's a great story very well crafted n filmed. The acting is very good too. So I came late to the party... But at least I'm here now.
Gripping drama, watched the whole season in a day!
I can't honestly remember when I last watched a series back to back all in one sitting. This series had me gripped from the start and I just had to watch it all back to back.
Really great storyline and fantastic acting from the entire cast - they were all brilliant.
I cannot recommend this highly enough - I can see why it scored so high. I am impressed.... Well done!

- TriviaWhen the third season of Top Boy was released on Netflix in 2019, it was released as "Season 1" to attract viewers, and the first two seasons from 2011 and 2013 were retroactively retitled "Top Boy: Summerhouse" to differentiate between the two.
- Crazy creditsIn the first two seasons, the show's intro consists of a camera pan, showing a variety of buildings in London. Starting with season three, only the show's name is shown.
