If you're hoping for a direct replica of the movies, you might find yourself let down. On the other hand, if you're looking for an enjoyable series that offers a more mature take on Gossip Girl with some elements reminiscent of the original Cruel Intentions, then this show is worth your time. Many reviewers tend to analyze each character in comparison to the original, but that's not the right approach; this series deserves to stand on its own. It features a new cast and fresh scripts. I appreciated the portrayal of most characters, including the side ones like Cece, who had engaging storylines. This show kept me captivated, and I ended up binge-watching it in just one day.
