ELLE WOODS FROM the film Legally Blonde has long been a fun screen character. Now we’re getting another look at her life with the prequel series Elle, which is streaming on Prime Video now.

As we wrote on Best of the Box last week:

This prequel brings us back to Elle’s high school days, and essentially is all about showing us the experiences that shaped her into the iconic gal she was in the first Legally Blonde film.

But have you seen Elle, and if so what did you think of it?
