    Binge worthy

    I was hooked from the first episode. Good story line. The background music was weird and annoying at times as it did not suit the situation.

    One of the best things I ever seen in tv

    Why nobody talking about how good this tv show is , brilliant directing amazing cinematography wonderful casting performances , really good writing, this is a masterpiece nobody talking about, especially the director should do something more because no movies or tv show he did , this my favorite tv show ever with prison break.

    Very enjoyable short TV series

    Miu Tomita was especially convincing in this teen fantasy-drama. I hope to watch more of her work. Actually, the entire cast was superb. Some of the scarier scenes were disturbingly realistic. This series conveys some valuable life lessons and I'd most highly recommend it for school-age viewers.

    Brilliant story with brilliant acting

    I think like a few users here I was recommended switched because I was erased. I only really watched it because it only has 6 episodes and they are all under an hour however I was gripped by just the first episode and I got a lot more from this than just a way to pass the time!

    It's a very important message that it doesn't matter what you look like on the outside, it's the inside that counts and although it's aimed at teens (I'm 27) I think it's an important message whatever stage of life you're in.

    Fantastic acting, you really felt for the characters and cried and laughed with them. Kaga stole the show for me- he is an absolute sweetheart!

    100% recommend this to anyone!

    Good Enough

    Switched is surprisingly a very entertaining drama. The execution of the fantasy element was well made and the whole body switching was nicely explained. The drama hit the top when we discovered the real personalities of the characters. The twist in the end was lovely as well. In addition the love triangle was really really cute and that helped with the love story to be intense, though the plot focused more on the characters rather the romance, which was a relief. The performances, finally, were top notch from every actor and actress in the drama.
