Mix Tape

I would highly recommend this series, it is well worth a watch. It is so sweet and beautiful. A lovely heart warming watch in a time when the world is so unbearable complicated. From the begining right to the end it had me hooked. I never once looked at my phone while watching. It pulled on every heart string and left me wanting more. I am devastated that I'm finished all 4 episodes. I wish I had spaced the episodes out so that I had it in my life for longer. The characters and their lives are relatable. The soundtrack is fantastic and if you are of a certain vintage will take you down memory lane.

Well, I'm a man in my 50's and this resonated on every level with me and was thoroughly heartbreaking from start to finish.. I thought that the two younger actors were amazing and really bought to life working class England of the late 80's - which they would have had no idea about , so hat's off to the writers & creators. The adult characters were well portrayed too and all in all it was, at times, verging on too agonising mainly with what was left unsaid and unresolved.. Sometimes in these pieces the switch between timelines can be a bit harsh, but not here - as every move between them was summoned in by a classic 80's tune - whose lyrics set us up for the switch - I found this aspect to be seamless. Talk about a ride, my wife and I watched all 4 hours on a rainy Sunday evening.

Just wanted to review this amazing new drama series. I have had to binge watch it because I couldnt stop watching it.

This is one of the best series I've watched in a while. It got me hooked and my husband has loved it too.

Throughout it, I've felt quite emotional, it's just so good and so well produced and directed and well acted. The 4 main actors are really good.

Living near to Sheffield, it brings the city in the late 80s back to life .

Fantastic amazing tearjerking series.

LOVE IT LOVE IT !!!!

Its got a great soundtrack too.

I really cant recommend it enough. Just wanted to give it as many stars as I could.

Mixtape (2025) completely won me over. It's one of those shows that sneaks up on you and stays with you long after the credits roll. The characters feel real, the music is incredible, and every episode made me feel something. It captures growing up, falling in love, and figuring out who you are in such a relatable way. I laughed, cried, and kept hitting "next episode" without thinking twice. It's warm, nostalgic, and full of heart. Honestly, it's one of my favourite shows this year and I'd recommend it to anyone who loves stories that feel personal and true.

What makes it even more special is how effortlessly it blends everyday life with a sense of magic and meaning. The friendships, the awkward moments, the big emotions - it all feels genuine. It reminded me of being a teenager again, and how powerful music can be during those years.

I've given it a 10 because not much makes me cry, but this did. The story is close to my own and hit some raw nerves. But even if it wasn't that way I think it was superb. True the adult characters are not quite old enough but relax into it, enjoy a great story and absorb the amazing music. The intertwining of 1988 and present day is seamlessly done. A superb production, will there be a season 2? Probably doesn't need one.
