CGiii Comment

This really is aimed at a particular demographic...young-ish lesbian professionals...who like to date lots and lots of women.

When you think about it young European lesbians are grossly under-represented on television...so, this goes some way in making amends. The appeal, perhaps, is that of shared experiences...note comparing on girlfriends past, present and future...the good, the bad and the downright insane choices [of partner] we have all experienced.

Unfortunately, for us, the production values veer more towards that of a web series rather than a fully fledged television production...which, for us, is its downfall. Each episode runs for an average of 20 minutes, bite size...we prefer something we can really sink our teeth into!

Still, Channel 4 [in the UK] have picked it up and all episodes are available to stream on their website. So...it is enjoying some success.

The(ir) Blurb...

When it comes to queer women and dating, we often recognize universal rites of passage: first love, the older woman, the closeted—or the wild—one.

In this smart, sexy new web series from the Netherlands, Anne is looking back on her liaisons with various girlfriends,as she moves into a new apartment.Each episode features one of Anne’s past relationships, from its swoony beginnings to the depressing, frustrating,or inevitable end. Along the way, Anne learns a great deal about herself and what she wants.

This series takes an honest, funny look at what it means to be young and in love. And as Anne works her way through her past romances, you just might recognize some of your own ex-girlfriends.
