#CAST AWAY MEGASHARE SERIES#
Definitely worth a watch, get your popcorn ready because this series is very binge-worthy and you won’t leave your couch for 4 days straight.In 1957, the Dollanganger children - 14-year-old Chris, 12-year-old Cathy, and 5-year-old twins Carrie and Cory - live happily with their parents, Christopher and Corrine, in Pennsylvania. With all the time I have spent watching it I am a little disappointed with the series finale, although the whole season was really good and the plot is amazing, especially with Annalise’s speech hitting it where it should, I can’t help but feel sad for the way it ended for some characters. They’re all so complex and interesting in their own way. While I was watching there were a few characters I immediately liked and others that I grew to like over the seasons. You never know what will happen and once you think you have it figured out they will completely surprise you with a plottwist. It keeps you on your toes and on the edge of your couch from the first minute. While I was watching there were a few Probably one of the best series I’ve seen.
