‘Freeridge’ (2023 – ): A series on Netflix with touches that Are… Different

Freeridge is a comedy series created by Lauren Iungerich, Jamie Dooner and Jamie Uyeshiro. It stars Keyla Monterroso Mejia, Shiv Pai and Bryana Salaz. Freeridge is a different kind of comedy, with very different kinds of characters.

Forget about perfect families living in perfect mansions with blonde bangs in the wind. These four teen friends fight with each other, have real problems and they buy things in supermarkets that offer bargains, and, they have a problem: an ancient box that ruins their lives and makes them be victims of a curse, so they will try to do everything possible and impossible to get rid of it.

Freeridge is amusing although a little conventional and it tries to break away from pre-established rules, but always remains within conventional patterns for teen comedy.

Beyond the characters, and what sets them apart from other comedies of this type, the series is “fun”… within a manageable order and without one expecting contents that are really original. Simple, but amicable.

This is a series with 8 episodes lasting thirty minutes in pills that are easy to take, lightweight, don´t make you choke and above all, entertain the viewer without complications beyond the characters who are not handsome, perfect and with blue eyes.

Four teen friends work to reverse a curse after a peculiar old box seems to bring misfortune — and more — into their lives.
