Some of you need to learn how to have fun and not take everything so seriously. I swear some people are so uptight with their reviews. I thought this show so far (I'm three episodes in) is lighthearted and fun. The comedic writing is good, the storyline/plot is entertaining so far and I like Nell and most of the cast. It's fun natured and clearly meant to be entertaining and lighthearted and good fun. You're not watching a freaking documentary for the love of God, so if you expect it to be perfectly accurate to the time period and history, watch something else. This clearly isn't for you. It's fun and it's not meant to be watched as a film snob or to be taken quite so seriously, I thought that was pretty evident from the very first episode...Some of you didn't get the memo clearly.
This series is very well produced and acted! Actually made my Mom put her Solitaire game on her phone down! (I have created a tech monster at 85 y. O. She is like a teenager with her phone...but I digress). The characters are great. The actors are fabulous! So many favorite characters with this series. Nell's character has hints of Gentleman Hack (another great show that unfortunately is no more). This series is also casted very well, in my opinion! Unexpectedly funny, if you actually pay attention. We are binge watching it today! Three more episodes to go. There better be a second season!! I can't imagine Disney not doing so!
Renegade Nell delivers an unforgettable experience, largely due to the exceptional performances by Louisa Harland and Frank Dillane, supported by a great full cast.
Harland's portrayal of Nell is both fierce and vulnerable, capturing the essence of the character with nuance and depth. Showcasing her versatility as an actress, making Nell a multi-dimensional and relatable protagonist
Dillane's charismatic presence as the antagonist adds a thrilling dynamic to the narrative. Their on-screen chemistry is palpable, elevating the story to new heights. A must-watch for their outstanding performances alone.

I loved it from start to finish. The action was great and the acting was lovely. I was hooked from the first episode and couldn't wait to watch the next. A bit dark, exciting, and a great female lead. A few laughs here and there to lighten it up a bit. So disappointed there won't be a second season. I would have absolutely loved to see where they were going to take the story. Such a bummer when they make good shows but they don't stick around. I feel like this show had some new adventure to it, not just a remake of old stories. It was refreshing to have such a strong female lead whose sisters were awesome too.
I noticed the show when I was browsing through the disney+ app while bored. It's not the usual type of show I watch but I decided to give it a try. I'm definitely glad I did! The show is such fun! It has everything you could want. Action, comedy, drama, great acting and quite a compelling story. I was even suprised that I actually liked most of the characters, definitely thanks to the talented actors and actresses who portray them. The show was so good that I binge watched it all in just two sittings and was left wanting more. I really hope it gets another season so I can see more of the characters and see how there story ends.
