Free Rein

Can we please stop with the movies and TV shows with teen girls wearing 10 pounds of flawless make-up 24 hours a day? It's totally unnecessary, unbelievable and detrimental to young girls' self esteem. The main character isn't too likable... actually none of the characters are, but maybe that's because the acting is stiff and the dialog is ridiculous. The show itself is silly, predictable and completely unrealistic, full of plot holes big enough a horse could fall into them. This is a total waste of time for most people unless you really, really love horses.

I watched this series with my 6 yr old horse crazy daughter over a weekend and we absolutely loved it. The story line is easy to follow for young children, the characters are likable and there's no inappropriate themes. The English country side is just beautiful as are the horses. Admittedly we are horse lovers but this is a really enjoyable show for young families to watch together. My daughter is desperate for season 2, fingers cross it's renewed.

The show was a series that gave teen drama, horse lovers, and family all in one show. It was so great that I watched the whole season over a day after first watching it. This show is great for anyone that loves horses and a little teenage drama that keeps the audience attention when watching it. Hope many enjoy the show as much as I did and hope that another season will happen with all of the same characters as season 1.

This show changed my life. I did not know what I was going into as a pressed "start episode" on my blotchy iPhone screen. As the minutes passed by, so my spirits lifted. "Could there be any show on earth more incredible?" I inquired to myself. Turns out, after minutes of searching and viewing, there isn't. This show has anything your aching heart could desire: the vibrant British country side, little horsey boi, drama, and attractive British lads! Yes, Free Rein has it all. And it has my heart. No other show can possibly be as perfect, as pure, as wonderful as this series. If you are questioning whether to begin on this epic journey that is streaming this series, I personally would like to invite you on the ride of your life. Don't forget to bring your horsey helmet, it's going to be the greatest ride of your life.

My children and I loved this series and watched most of it all at once on a cold day in. It's gripping, intriguing and has a nice clean story line making it great family viewing.

We particularly enjoyed the horse riding as we have just started horse riding lessons and found the horse riding accurate and interesting.
