Teenage Bounty Hunters (Netflix Show)

Just started watching this.

I got quite a few good laughs on the first episode. Just starting episode 2 now.

 

My wife and I binged it last weekend. We really liked it. First and foremost the two lead actresses were really good. The were fun and exciting.

I also like how

Spoiler

April came out to Sterling. April did not play the typical "What do you mean I am gay? You came on to me, it meant nothing to me." April was honest that she knows who she is, even if she can't tell everyone. Too many times I have seen that played as "you (Sterling in the case) are the Lesbian and I didn't like it". (I also appreciated she added that God knows she is gay and He doesn't care either so matter of fact.).

Looking forward to a season 2.

 

Yes. One of the themes the whole season was averting overdone tropes. 10/10 would recommend. I wonder if they can do it again in another season?

We are watching it as well and have really enjoyed it. I think we are on episode 8.

 

Finished watching this show. Loved it.

But question for those who have also finished it:

Spoiler: Question contains spoiler

Wait, so they are not twins? And if they are not, what's up with the twin telepathy?

 

Spoiler: Answer

That appears to be the case. Unless their mom/aunt are lying for some reason. That would mean that mom and her sister were both pregnant at the exact same time and gave birth very close to each other. As far as the twin telepathy, guess they were close enough to twins to make it work? Not sure, but still a cool thing in the show.

 

Just started Episode 1. Question - at the very end, the picture on the board - the blonde gal - who is it ? I am not good at the 'linking it together' ! ha! But, really enjoy the show so far. Can't wait to watch Episode 2 tonight after work !

 

I have not finished but I have a guess

Spoiler

Their mother

 

Spoiler

That is the mother.

 

Thanks!!! I was guessing that !

 

Spoiler: Volt

How does the Volt not need charging for that long drive?

 

Spoiler: volt

The Volt is a plug in hybrid, it can run on the gas engine after the battery is dead. The Bolt is the all electric Chevy

 

Finished this last night. Thought it was pretty great. It could have been annoying in so many ways but they did a great job of avoiding all of that and keeping the show fresh.

 

Wanted to write more yesterday but didn't have time . I don't have enough to say to create a brand new spoiler thread but it is a bit of a shame we don't have one already...

First, I doubt too many people were shocked by the "big reveal" at the very end... it seemed pretty obvious to me that was the case almost from the time Sterling was picked up from the lock-in. Regarding that:

Spoiler

It's interesting the parents decided to tell them they're twins, instead of just sisters. Even if they're too close in age to be sisters, you could just lie about their ages to make it feasible. Kids develop at different ages. Clearly they're lying about ages anyway since they can't have really been born on the same day. I guess Debbie liked having a twin when she was growing up?

Second, I thought the attitude towards / depiction of religion and guns was interesting. Usually you get either "all bad" or "all good". I thought they made an effort to show both good and bad sides and also how kids are handling the messaging their parents are handing out, some of which they clearly don't buy, while still not tossing out everything. Just to see I went over to IMDb to look up the comments and was unsurprised to see a lot of negative comments about these aspects, coming from both "ends".

Spoiler

I was especially unsurprised to see complaints about being "bashed over the head" with the "gay agenda". Sigh. And on the other side, some complaints about how guns are shown here as part of a way of life, given the violence we're going through. Also sigh.

I definitely hope this show gets enough views to warrant a second season.

 

I binged thru this and quite enjoyed it. Not quite the intended demographic, but the story and characters worked for me.

 

Finally finished this... WOW- please bring on Season 2 soon!

 

Started watching this based on a recommendation, plus I've run out of my usual goto shows. I'm pleasantly surprised at how funny it is. Didn't recognize Kadeem Hardison. Last time I saw him was in "A Different World". Damn, I'm old.
