Anne With An E: a Netflix review by 9-year-old MissObservation

Hi everybody! Welcome! My name is Phoenix and today I’m going to be talking about a show instead of a movie. The show is called, “Anne With An E” and I just got done watching it on Netflix. Even though the show was called “Anne With An E”, you might know it better as “Anne Of Green Gables” because those are what the books were called and the books were written a long time ago and the show was based on the books. This is one of the few shows that me, my mom, and dad can all watch together and we can all enjoy.

This story takes place in Canada, which is kind of cool for me because my grandma is from Canada. So it starts out with this girl named Anne. And she has long red hair. And she has freckles. And she has lived a very hard life because she was an orphan. And then these people have adopted her. And it’s an old lady and she’s living with her brother on a farm called Green Gables. The old lady is Marilla and her brother is Matthew and they’re the Cuthberts.

Anne is very emotional. Like, everything that happens is a huge drama. And that’s kind of funny. But, Anne is also very smart and she likes to read a lot. And she uses big words, and I don’t even know what she’s saying half the time, and that’s funny too. So Anne is very helpful around the farm but sometimes she can be a little bit clumsy and she’ll start breaking things. Anne also has a very big imagination, just like I do, and sometimes she’ll forget to do her chores around the house and farm and she’ll forget to do her homework and she’ll be lost inside her imaginary stuff and she’ll forget all about that and she’ll get in big trouble, just like I do. Anne also has to go to school and she doesn’t really fit in there because everyone’s mean and a bully to her. But there’s one guy who stands up for her and is nice to her because I think he likes her and Anne probably likes her back too.

So I watched the whole show, all the episodes, and I think there were like seven of them, and there were like two or one part that my dad had me cover my ears because they were talking about adult stuff and it was too mature for me. I really hope there’s another season of it because I would really like to see more. I think my parents would also like to see some more episodes because Anne With An E is kind of like a period piece and they really like period pieces like Downton Abbey.

Overall I thought this show was great. And if you like period pieces of strong girls who are very smart and talented and creative, you’re gonna like this show. So yeah, that’s pretty much the end of my review for the show called, Anne With An E. Thank you for watching. I’ll see you next time. Goodbye everybody.
