First

Wow... This series really struck me like Lightning.

The romance , the faces , the feelings , the ... Love.

This was everything I needed it to be and more. Issa Rae's channel carries so much good content and I can't wait to dig into more of these series and shorts. I already loved James Bland's Giants, and now this. Exciting!

First is the most romantic web series on YouTube, hands down. The chemistry between the two lead characters is as potent as possible, and every episode, we are clinging onto their every word, discovering their past, present, and future. This Issa Rae-produced series is a stand out from most YouTube series in that all the central categories - acting, direction, writing, production - are all very well done and never distracting. Also, bonus points for showcasing black relationships so beautifully and such a relatable fashion. Eagerly awaiting the next season (if it will ever happen). 9/10!

I watched this series over 7 years ago, and recently watched it again in a few days. Can I say how beautiful the portraying of melanated love is. It's beautiful to see a dark skin women ( who is gorgeous by the way- divine facial feautures) take on a lead as such! She is fierce yet so soft and feminine. I love that we get to see the feminity of who we are as dark skin women. How a man is so raptured in love, it's just aweeeee! Is season three ever going to comes out! Pleasssseeeeeeee!

I also love seeing the relationships that are pure honest and nothing to do with violence. It's refreshing to the soul.

Big thankhs!
