The Failed Potential Of Big Girls Don't Cry
I have beef with Amazon India. Specifically with their original series. Some are good, some have potential but all most all of them lose steam so quickly. And Big Girls Don't Cry is unfortunately another in a long standing line of content. I had originally decided to watch the show based off of a trailer I had been subjected (rather forcefully) to watch by YouTube. But what really made me curious was to see the show was when, while scrolling on Instagram, I saw a post by Avantika, who played Karen in the new Mean Girls re-boot/ musical extravaganza. I liked her in that movie, she one of the few blessings and was set on watching this new show after that. Now, I already have history with Amazon India shows, a prime example being Made in Heaven (which we'll get into). That show was pretty good in its titular season and the it's renewal led to the weird mess that was season 2. I was disappointed due to Zoya Akhtar's involvement but in hindsight, that wasn't the worst ...
