My Life with the Walter Boys

So, i watch quite a lot of shows and mostly crime thrillers so dramas like this don't usually appeal to me. However I enjoyed this i loved the concept of a big family, the farm nice sceneries, the brothers and the sisters. This is so much better than the summer i turned pretty and honestly deserves a watch. Team Cole all the way. Love the dynamics of all the characters and chemistry between them too. I also like the adult relationships and there characters as well. Looking forward to S2 hopefully it is a bit more spicy and hope they don't take ages releasing it or are too slow with carrying on some story lines.

I refuse to apologise for the fact that I finished this show within less than a week. Yes, the acting is average but who actually cares? Does no one want to watch mindless teen dramas anymore? Since when did we all start analysing TV shows that were clearly not made to showcase elite acting and plots as if they all have to be emmy nominated performances? Who ACTUALLY cares. If its watchable I'm going to be invested!!!!

I enjoyed it to keep it simple. It was addictive, easy to binge and I was invested. Just a shame that annoying alex kept coming back. I hope they play out the Jackie and Cole plot more in S3 instead of starving me.

One note- please someone stop Alex from smiling. It was incredibly disturbing.

This show had some potential after the first few episodes. I started watching and was like: "okay, nice story and lots of room to develop characters". I didn't expect most of them would turn out to be so annoying and predictable. Certain level of predictability is tolerable in these kinds of shows, but that level has been crossed IMO. Very disappointing altogether. No chemistry between the characters.

Alex is so annoying I started skipping scenes with him.

Cole is just simply too old to have any chemistry with Jackie, it's weird.

Will - seriously? Are we supposed to believe that Donna (sorry, Katherine) gave birth to him? Come on.

Whoever did casting here, please do better next time.

The only character I actually like at this point (8 ep) is Erin.

Where's her inheritance?

Seems if I appointed someone a guardian, I would also leave money for her upkeep, especially if I were wealthy, and aware that the family are farmers.

The uncle has it, and is keeping it as leverage?

Is he the land developer trying to purchase their land?

Is he a good guy or a bad guy?

This really annoys and frustrates me, although I love the Walter parents a lot.

Not really sure that this deserves a second season.

Since I'm only on episode 9, maybe it's all addressed in ep 10?

Guess I should finish it all and come back to leave an additional review based on the whole of it.

I agree with the other reviewer, the whole entire time I was watching the show I kept on wondering why Jackie could not help out the Walter family with some money from her inheritance. Her Mom was supposedly successful in the fashion industry. There is no way her parents would not have made some kind of accommodations in case of an emergency. This made no sense and really took away from the believability of the story. I never read the book, so was not familiar with the story line or the characters. Some of the acting seemed rather stiff, I am not really sure if this show is worth a second season.
