Cash Queens 2026 Tv Show Review
Cash Queens centres around a group of woman who haven’t got two Euros to rub together, whether from general cost of living issues, and while Sofia (Naidra Ayadi) has bad mould issues in the kitchen which might result in her kids bring taken away (even though, surely, the landlord should sort that out?), Rosa (Rebecca Marder – The Round-Up) wins Top Trumps of bad luck because most of her salary is going to pay off her jailed husband’s debt.
Since the latter works in a bank, they all plan to rob it, as it’s apparently quite easy if you work there and know that the staff are told not to challenge anyone, and just to hand it over.
When it comes to the investigation, the police may as well be the Keystone Cops in how terrible they are, aside from periodic slapping of male suspects.
Aside from that, there was a scene in the opener mirroring One Battle After Another, the film featuring a a pregnant woman firing a rifle, while this one has a man in a wheelchair with nothing about his person below the waist.
Cash Queens‘ original title, Les Lionnes, actually translates as The Lionesses, but then there’s already Paramount+’s Lioness. That was a good drama, though. This new opus, however, is just a silly farce that might extend to a daft 105-minute comedy, but several hours across 8 episodes?
Thanks to our friends at Netflix for the screener prior to release.
Cash Queens is on Netflix from today.
