What do you think? Did you watch the Blue TV series on YouTube’s WIGS channel? Do you plan to watch Blue: A Secret Life, next week on LMN? Tell us.
Am enjoying Blue on LMN!
I LOVED this show the first go round and would LOVE to see it come back with many more episodes!!!
This is a unique look at the difficulties of single motherhood and the frustration of low pay and wage disparities. Julia Stiles nails it. I wish LMN hadn’t found it necessary to silence the curse words; this censorship puzzles me, as the visual and mental images are more extreme than a few curse words. Nevertheless, I’m already addicted to this series and will watch it to the end. Thank you, LMN!
There IS NO END!!!!
I was channel surfing and stopped on Blue. I’m so glad I did! This show is awesome. Can’t wait to see it again tonight.
I love this show and plan on watching every episode. Is this only going to be a short series of 4 episodes? I hope not. I’d LOVE to see it be at the very least a full 1 series television show if it can’t go any longer than that. I really enjoy the show.
I absolutely luv this show! !! Julia is awesome. … would like it to continue.
I definitely like this show so far, looking forward to new episodes.
I think this show is great! It shows how hard it is being a single mom raising kids especially teenagers trying to make ends meet. It shows women who are strong, smart, hard working it is about women being able to speak freely about sex and their feelings. As women sometimes we can’t speak freely. I think this show deserves a shot. I can’t wait to see more. Thanks!!
Love the show. LMN please play more.
Definitely would like to see more episodes of “Blue “. It seems like a no-brainer to me.
Yes I would like to see new episodes
I would like to know where u came up with the name Blue. Did u know her?
WHAT? Odd WHO know her? The name was a nickname given to her by Her now incarcerated father
I really hope this is more than 2 episodes. I like Julia Stiles but this is above and beyond –even better than her run on Dexter
