Queenie

This isn't normally the type of show I watch. Admittedly, I put it on for noise in the background while I did other things however, pretty much right from the beginning it grabbed me. It's a very honest look into young women's lives and makes it OK to feel the way we feel, I don't have any information on producer Director or actors but I can tell you that they did a great job writing and casting this show. I am almost done with the eighth episode and I'm very excited to get a season two to see what is coming for Queenie. By the way, she is a great actress and I hope to see her more things Love love love.

This show has so many layers to it. A 25 year old woman living in a modern urban existence attempting at navigating her career, her relationship and family through a quarter life crisis..Queenie gets deep on the varying dimensions of relationships, friendships, coping in life through alcohol abuse, sexual abuse and the difficulty a lot of young people have in todays modern "dating app" era in wanting to feel loved and needing a relationship. Queenie brings many interesting stories in to short episodes of drama that leave you hooked and make you wanting to come back for more each time. I'm sure that many many people can relate to the narratives. Brilliant would thoroughly recommend! At times the story can be jerky and jump around a bit quickly making it appear less believable but at times very funny, sad, interesting and above all a great watch.

After watching the show in it's entirety I can see why people would think the lead character is unlikeable initially, but once the story develops it shows her vulnerability, her struggle and strength which develops increasing that emotional connection and understanding who she really is and what's important in her life. You can see the tone of the program change half way through, it becomes less laughter and more dramatic, shot tighter to show more emotion and it felt more engaging. Overall it was a great watch, there was some exceptional acting it was easy to follow and well executed. Well done Onyx and Channel 4.

My Jamaican parents immigrated to the UK during the Windrush generation. My father was offered a job in the United States, so thy relocated to America. I was brought up in the U. S., and I am grateful for the opportunity that it has given my family. However, it was nice to see a realistic portrayal of a West Indian family living in England. The only time Jamaicans are portrayed in movies or shows, they are dreadlocked pseudo-rastafarian drug dealers, or brain-dead weed heads, who only know two words in English. "Yeah Mon!" FYI -English is the official language of Jamaica, and Jamaican patois is not a language. Queenie is a great film and a treat for West Indians.

To me, this was perfect television. This is what shows should be about - vulnerable, well made, and exploring our humanity. I cried so much watching this as I've never seen myself so much on screen before. I was so moved and inspired by Queenie and her family's journey. I hope the same for my family...and I'm so grateful this show was made! I never finished the book but maybe I'll go back and read it now, but it really hits so much seeing it on screen. Thank you Candice Carty-Williams for your breath-taking work on this show. Hulu, please find and put out more content like this, thank youuuuuuuuuuuu.
