Game changer

I was really impressed with this. Extended run time and clever plot tackling themes of homophobia and mental health. Lead actors who show a convincing range of emotions and intimacy. People might claim the MDL rating is over-inflated but in the context of LGBT+ representation and the limited budget, this is one of the best. I didn't see the plot twist at the end coming, so that is testament to the story. It gets better as each episode goes on.

I saw some reviews that criticised the fantasy plot-line and found it a distraction. I disagree. I think it is refreshing to watch an LGBT+ series with a developed and distinctive plot. Representation is important but I want to see both: LGBT+ romance and a clever, engaging drama that does not skirt around important issues. This series delivers on both fronts. Hopefully this will encourage studios to consider a 12 episode, 1 hour format.
