‘Never Have I Ever’ Review (Netflix)
At first glance, I, among the majority of the people who have heard of the Netflix original show Never Have I Ever, assumed this was just yet another teenage drama series but as the show progress it really did step up in my estimation…
Never Have I Ever opened with the lead character Devi praying to a selection of Hindu gods which was a very unusual opening. But it is fantastic to see this faith get mainstream attention, something which can only benefit members of the Hindu community. On top of this, opening a show with a prayer scene also captured the anxieties of Devi and, as she is a representation of a typical teenager, the fears young people face such as grades, friends and relationships – which is insanely clever.
Every character in t Never Have I Ever is well-rounded, portrayed realistically and honestly, which made them very easy to relate to.
