Videoland

I don't watch any Australian tv shows (even though I'm an Aussie) but this Aussie show surprised me in the best way! It was only 2 episodes long but I hope they release more eps on Netflix.

It was fun, cheesy, admittedly cringey but definitely got some laughs out of me.

The delivery was over the top but I liked this style. The pastel pink and blue aesthetic was a good choice. I liked that despite the show only taking place at the 'Videoland' store set, it was still felt engaging.

The small cast Hayley, Jennifer, Tanya, Daniel, Mel and Karen did a superb job. There was Tanya's no-filter and supportive BFF energy, Hayley's self-discovery and nerdy references to movie lines, Daniel's character arc and Karen just being a Karen. I liked that Mel had older sister energy and did a great job of being the apparently stern boss but still rolling with Hayley and Tanya's shenanigans, it was just great.

The characters felt so distinct and hope they get fleshed out abit more later. Would definitely recommend checking out this show!
