Barracuda Queens

I went into Barracuda Girls with no expectations, and what I got was an unexpected rollercoaster of humor and cringe-worthy moments that I didn't see coming.

The show features a cast of unbearably mean, self-centered girls who, honestly, could give the characters from Pretty Little Liars a run for their money. And let me be clear: that's both a compliment and an insult. The characters' behavior is as manipulative and petty as it is hilariously exaggerated. At times, you're left wondering whether to laugh or cringe at how outlandish their antics get.

But that's where the charm of the show lies. It's unapologetically over-the-top, and while you might roll your eyes at the characters, you can't help but get sucked into the absurdity of it all.

The characters were all generally unlikeable but I'm guessing that was the intention. Mia was the character I liked the most. Probably because she was not the spoilt rich kid but she just hung around them to try and be like them. She seemed the most real.

The unhappy swinging couples that were the parents was something I really didn't understand. I'm guessing they were showing that just because people have money it doesn't necessarily make them happy. It was just weird.

While it was set in 1995, and there was elements of the 90s included like Roxette playing in the background and the Saab 9-3 convertible, the fashion/hair styles seemed very modern and didn't really feel 90s.

Barracuda Queens is such a fun and addictive watch - you'll finish it in one sitting. The main characters are all so different in their own ways, and their group dynamic feels real and raw. It's not the typical copy-paste girl gang, and you actually believe their personalities. The way they decide to take matters into their own hands and pull off those reckless heists? Honestly, it's chaotic in the best way - thrilling and entertaining. The side relationships give the show extra layers i love it , and the 90s/early 2000s fashion is gorgeous!!!. The acting is seriously solid too. We need more episodes and longer seasons. 2 seasons wasn't nearly enough! Please give us more.

I typically do not start watching a new series that are only around 30 minutes per episode but somehow I did with Barracuda Queens and that's ok. The language is dubbed not very well but that's ok as well. It didn't negatively affect my opinion of it because I enjoyed the short easy breezy series. In no time I was finished with it and wishing they would have given us a hour long episode when making it. I am from the states and had never heard anything about the girls but we are similar in age. Maybe that plays a role in why I enjoyed it as much as I did. I can't help but wonder how they all turned out. I hope well!

This series really caught my attention right from the first episode. Good actors, good production, great soundtrack, interesting story and characters but with so much development potential.

They have really succeeded in reflecting the environment from the nineties. The music, the clothes and the rest of the environment. It is an impressive interpretation that is based on real events. However, I missed other perspectives of the story. Therefore, the first season could have been several episodes. Alternatively, the episodes could have been longer than just thirty minutes. But in summary, it's a good series! I really hope there will be another season or more. It's really worth a watch!
