The Five Star Weekend Reviews

9/10 really loved this show. Amazing characters amazing storylines just a really good show cried laughed just super relatable

It’s a lot of dialogue and drama but good thing I don’t mind movies that are mostly about talking m. Drama keeps you watching and comedy is a bonus. I like how you get to see how someone is always going through their own shit and life doesn’t get put on hold.

Pretty good watch. The depth of this show was incredible, covering guilt, pain, betrayal, forgiveness, and letting go. The cast was excellent, and everyone played their role so well that I was locked in from start to finish. 8.5/10.

mid but entertaining

Cute! similar to the book with only some differences which didn’t bug me. Love the vibes and want to go to Nantucket lol. I LOVEDDD Brooke!! And I thought the actresses did great! Plus jacks cute

Such a great watch

Messy friendships, complicated relationships, and enough drama to keep me watching episode after episode.

Episode 8 was my favorite, and honestly, it ripped my heart wide open in the best way. It gave me that exact feeling of finishing a really good book and immediately wishing there were more pages left. This finale felt full and satisfying, but I still wanted more, especially more of Jack and Hollis.

That reveal about Matthew was devastating in the most complicated way. Finding out he had already decided to end things with Gigi and was actually turning around to go back to Hollis doesn’t erase the betrayal, but it adds this painful layer of what could have been. Josh Hamilton’s presence has hovered over the whole season, and that twist made the grief hit even harder.

Jennifer Garner is so good here, especially in Hollis’s final confrontation with Gigi. Forgiving her while also telling her never to contact her again felt painfully honest, and sending her away with homemade toffee and cardamom was such a perfectly Hollis move. Of course she would serve heartbreak with a hostess gift.

What I loved most is that the finale lets healing be messy instead of magical. Caroline learning the truth gives that mother-daughter relationship a real emotional payoff, and watching her stay to support Hollis adds so much heart. The rest of the women get beautiful moments too, especially Brooke stepping more fully into herself and Tatum facing her diagnosis with real vulnerability.

Overall, the finale hit that perfect bittersweet note. It was sad, healing, and full of heart without pretending everything could be tied up neatly, which made it feel all the more real.

I rather enjoyed this. It wasn’t perfect but it was an engaging watch. The cast really carried what could otherwise have fallen a bit flat. I’m a big fan of D'Arcy Carden anyway, so particularly enjoyed her character.

Absolutely loved the cast. Was a good story.

Fine

Cute watch
