Amazon Prime Video has released 'Elle', an eight-episode prequel series that focuses on the teenage years of Elle Woods, set in 1995.

Amazon Prime Video 推出了《Elle》，這是一部共八集的前傳劇集，聚焦於 1995 年 Elle Woods 的青少年時期。

The series expands the story of the 2001 movie 'Legally Blonde'. Produced by Reese Witherspoon and Marc Platt, the plot follows a young Elle Woods, played by Lexi Minetree. After her father, a plastic surgeon, fails professionally, the family moves from Los Angeles to Seattle. The show explores how Elle deals with high school social groups and the contrast between her bright style and the 'grunge' culture of Seattle in the mid-90s. The cast also includes June Diane Raphael as the mother and features the final performance of the late James Van Der Beek.

本劇擴展了 2001 年電影《金髮女郎》的故事。由 Reese Witherspoon 和 Marc Platt 監製，劇情由 Lexi Minetree 飾演年輕的 Elle Woods。在她的父親（一名整形外科醫生）職業生涯失敗後，全家人從洛杉磯搬到西雅圖。本劇探討了 Elle 如何應對高中的社交群體，以及她明亮的風格與 90 年代中期西雅圖的「垃圾搖滾 (grunge)」文化之間的對比。卡司還包括飾演母親的 June Diane Raphael，並包含了已故演員 James Van Der Beek 的最後一次演出。

Critics have expressed mixed opinions about the series. Some reviewers from NME and The New York Post describe the show as energetic and a faithful tribute to the original movie, specifically praising Minetree's acting. However, critics from IndieWire and The Independent argue that the series is simply a copy of the original and lacks the same comedic quality. They claim the writing is weak and relies too much on nostalgia rather than a strong story. Furthermore, some analysts suggest the plot is too simple, as if it were designed for viewers who are distracted by other screens.

評論家對本劇的意見褒貶不一。來自 NME 和《紐約郵報》的一些評論者將該劇描述為充滿活力且是對原創電影的忠實致敬，特別讚賞 Minetree 的演技。然而，來自 IndieWire 和《獨立報》的評論家則認為本劇僅僅是原版的複製品，缺乏同樣的喜劇品質。他們聲稱劇本薄弱，過多依賴情懷而非強而有力的故事。此外，一些分析師認為情節過於簡單，彷彿是為那些會被其他螢幕分心的觀眾而設計的。

At the same time as the launch, Amazon is facing legal problems with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission over unfair contract terms. Despite these legal issues and the divided reviews, the series has already been renewed for a second season.

在劇集推出的同時，Amazon 因不公平合約條款正與澳洲競爭與消費者委員會面臨法律爭端。儘管有這些法律問題和分歧的評價，本劇已經獲得續訂第二季。

The series 'Elle' is now available on Prime Video, keeping the franchise popular even though critics disagree on its quality.

劇集《Elle》現已在 Prime Video 上線，儘管評論家對其品質持有分歧，但仍讓該系列保持熱度。
