The review

Jackie is a girl with no house, and a loud family gives her one. That first movement is worth something. The series cannot leave it alone. Two brothers, one girl, and the grief becomes the reason the triangle feels deep. It is not deep. It is a shelf of the same afternoon.

A thirteen-year-old will understand the crush and miss the orphan. If you watch any of it, stop after the episode where the house simply feeds her, and talk about what it means to take someone in. Do not finish the season for the kiss.

No house has filed a sentence for this yet.

Live Historic number 44. Yours can differ.

The glance

Industry and Piety and Courage and Temperance and Truth are the thin ones.

Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

Consider this

Virgin River

61 instead of 44

Virgin River is still a drama show, and it scores 61 instead of 44. What you gain is industry: She delivers babies and keeps a clinic that would close without her.

The eight

4
Industry
The ranch is work. The show would rather be in a bedroom.
6
Household
A family opens the door to an orphan. Then the door becomes a contest between brothers.
3
Piety
Loss is felt. Reverence is not.
4
Courage
She starts over in a new town. The risk the show cares about is which boy.
5
Republic
A big table is still a table. The town is Colorado and mostly scenery.
4
Temperance
Teen romance is the sugar. It is constant.
4
Truth
Grief is not a lie. The triangle treats it as a pause between kisses.
5
Stewardship
Being taken in is a form of handing on. The series does not stay with that.

Always a Witch

44Leave it.

A girl out of her own century, trying to stay herself. The magic is the engine. The love story is the bait.

The review

The useful picture is a girl the old city tried to burn, walking around a new city that does not have a category for her. Cartagena is doing real work whenever the show lets it. Most episodes would rather get back to the boy and the spell.

Acceptable at thirteen if fantasy is already the dialect of the house. Ask what the old century thought it was punishing, and whether the new one is kinder or only louder.
