Life Sentence

This is more drama than comedy. i saw many movies about cancer but none about life after cancer. so this is refreshing and good. i saw 3 episodes. and a lot happened in 3 episodes. generally i dont see that much happen in tv series in such sshort span. its actually movin g forward pretty well. main lead is likable. also supporting characters too. how they cope with every thing they sacrificed to help her through cancer. i also see plot thickening how the desicions made while yo u were dying is not exactly sure for living. and so on........waiting for next episodes. give it a shot.

This show starring Lucy Hale has comedy potential, but the story most certainly is all over the place. You kind of get a headache when you are taken along for the ride with Stella (played by Hale) and discover with her all the secrets her family kept to themselves while she was sick. There are sweet messages dropped in throughout the pilot and crazy interactions between siblings, parents, etc. but nothing to really grab onto except for Stella's humorous marriage relationship. Wes (played by Elliot Knight) and Stella were probably the best part of the series beginning. Her readjustment for the future basically drives the show...however I'll mention once again that Hale and Knight are the real gems. All the other characters make for okay curveballs as the series tries to continue, though they tug more at your pity than your funny bone. Also, the medical aspect of the series and how Stella is cured from her cancer does a fine job of throwing in a unique angle at how to perceive "living" and takes away the dark and off-putting circumstance that cancer can be. Instead, Life Sentence chose to approach cancer in a more light-hearted way that causes you to view the disease as a hurdle rather than an antagonistic monster...not allowing cancer the satisfaction of winning (something I appreciate).

I was really confused as to if i would like this show or not when i first watched it but let me say not soon after the begining of the show i had fell in love with lucy hale and her character shes sweet funny charming and bubbly just a cute character in general and the show is packed with laughs and heart it dosent seem to fit well coming on after riverdale but it was sweet and i reccomend trying it

Ok, no cancer isn't funny and should be taken seriously. This is just a fun new series about a girl who gets cured of it and has to figure out how to live! Lucy Hale is fabulous, as is the rest of the cast, as they all have to figure out there lives moving forward. Truths and lies come out along the way. Unlike cancer folks this should be enjoyed and not taken seriously. It is just a T,V show so relax.

I watched this show after Riverdale last night and i must say i was impressed by how touching the show actually is i love Lucy hale and she truly shines on this shes charming likeable and super sweet i laughed out loud several times and cant wait to see next week a true winner of a show no doubt
