Normal People (BBC/Hulu) #1: "Life offers up these moments of joy despite everything”
Here's the trailer if you haven't heard about it:
I quite enjoyed the show. It really concentrates on the connection between two characters. A lot of story development in that 30 min per episode format without being too rushed. So well done. __________________

i have no issues with the acting, writing, directing or cinematography, but i detest everything which makes the 'normal' people normal on this show  __________________

Ha. You're not alone. I didn't hate it but I didn't quite get what made so many think it was so wonderful.

It's being released weekly here so I've only watched the first episode and so far I'd say it's just alright. I think it does try a little too hard to paint Marianne as an outcast so maybe I agree with you? I mean she's cute and she's well-off and I've seen how that goes a long way when you're still in school. That being said I'm intrigued by what it's trying to do and I do love a good slow-burn character study so I can't wait to watch episode 2. __________________

i like the show because it's believable. the struggle and connection with the challenges of becoming a young adult. characters that i can relate to.
also i love and miss Ireland. __________________

how i am on the outer with regards to being in a circle of people like maryanne (or a reverse female version of connell - the articulate scholarship student) because of my background and circumstances- raised in a redneck town means i would have "bitten off more than i could chew" to be involved in the world of these normal people theres nothing wrong with these people, they have the same reactions to certain things that i would have, and may even mean well to you, but i will never be close to them ∴ the hate-watch __________________
