Sisters Peyton and Skye--one the co-anchor of a hit morning show, the other a stay-at-home mom in the New York suburbs--seem to have everything, until an Ivy League college admissions sting involving Peyton's husband threatens all they have worked for.
Peyton has a seat at the anchor desk of the most-watched morning show, an adoring husband and a Princeton-bound daughter. Skye, her sister, is a stay-at-home mom living in a glitzy suburb of New York, but dreams of a life beyond the PTA and pickup. Max, Peyton's daughter, is poised to kiss her fancy private school goodbye and head off to pursue her dreams in film. Until... One little lie. That's all it takes for the illusions to crack. For resentments to surface. Suddenly the grass doesn't look so green. Will any of them have what it takes to survive the truth? -- adapted from jacket

Didn't Love It submitted by selujules on July 22, 2021, 8:39pm I found most of the characters unlikable and entitled... it's a somewhat nuanced look at the college admission scandal (it made me think it's a grayer thing than the black-white way I had previously perceived it), but the lack of characters I cared about made it a bit of a slog. Not my favorite.
