There are no cloying Very Special Episodes to be found among this bingeable batch of six. In fact, the only real complaint I have about the first season is that it’s far too short. If ever a TV series could support an old-school, American broadcast order of 23 episodes, it would be this instant classic among teen dramas.
Does Boarders say anything new? That’s yet to be seen. But even if it treads well-worn ground, it does so in a way that’s witty and funny, with just enough drama to let the audience know that the stakes for these five teens are pretty high.
Witty and sharp, “Boarders” gets to the heart of what it means to learn who you are when you’re being simultaneously ostracized and objectified.
Boarders, though, consistently manages to both fit into the old tropes and reinvent the clichés to fit around these characters. It’s a real charmer.
Razor-sharp writing and great performances make the six episodes deliciously bingeable.
It’s a fun, funny and complex coming-of-age story that encompasses all the mess and joy of youth, where few people ever really feel that they fit in.
Boarders offers six episodes of solidly executed covers of the greatest hits. It’s consistently likable, occasionally clever and the young cast of relatively newcomers delivers across the board.
