The Episode Review
This is the first episode and we are getting to learn more about each character. So far, Maggie and Birdy seem to have a co-dependent relationship. The four girls are enjoying their youth and are living it up in London.
Maggie seems to be conflicted about what she wants. She seems to want a relationship, but she also seems to want independence. Hopefully, we will see her live her fairytale as the show progresses. It is too early to say if this is just another show where young people are making bad decisions in the name of being young and independent.
