I like the heart paper in the dog line, the little paw prints in the tiny hearts are just adorable. The cat line doesn't really appeal to me as it's way too bright and juvenile for my 15 year old.
Looking at the You're the Man line really made me realise how little typical masculine lines suit my DH. He watches chick flicks with me, his man cave is more about his gaming consoles, and he's the least handy person I know.
Overall there's nothing here I have to have.

While each line is nice, I have no use for them.
I did have a random thought tbough. Why do we not tell women & girls, "You are epic"?

I like the dog line, especially the embellishments.

I like that the Meow line isn't PINK, it's a litle bright for me but I'll buy it anyway...I have way too many cats and cat photos not to.

I like that the pet lines are the same color palette so that you can mix and match if you want. I have no use for the lines, but I think they will be great for others who have pets. I also like that they are not pastel or pink. The You're the Man line is ok but I'm with everyone else that it's overplayed and not really relevant.

Nope, there's not one thing on either pet line that I can hijack to use for hamsters or guinea pigs...
The same with the dad line, DH doesn't have a man cave. He works in IT and plays board games...

I like the pet lines for sure. I also like the lightbulb paper in the "man" line. But as usual, I buy things on sale so none will be added to my list right away.

I don't have any pets so those lines are a no for me, but I do appreciate the bright clean colours. I wish the "man" line were just a little bit more generic and had some more papers to round it out. Going through some of my older stash, I really miss the diversity in the colour palettes that we used to see. While some of the theme elements won't work for my SO, there might have just been enough for me to purchase if there were some more papers included. I'll reserve judgement until I can see it in person and may pick and choose a bit of it.

I want the paper with the cut out sayings in the MEOW collection, I have a gray cat and that "THIEF OF HEARTS" is too cute.

I like the pet lines, but I just got a paper pack for pets and don’t need more.

I did have a random thought tbough. Why do we not tell women & girls, "You are epic"? There are a few cliche "man" terms on this line, but overall I applaud photoplay for keeping it general. While I don't really know what "100% man" is (seriously. That is just a silly phrase) (and I would be offended if someone put "100% woman" on a page about me!) I think "you are epic" is fairly gender neutral and I have used it on my DDs pages. I wish they would write "All that awesome in one amazing PERSON" (instead of Man): it's such a strong phrase, yes? I love the paw print hearts too Chinagirl828, but agree that most of it is too juvenile. "Welcome home happy dance performed here nightly". love it!

Meow (same color palette as Bow Wow) - I like that it is not pink and I love the cat paw and the cat paper. It is still pretty juvenile, though. My 14-year-old cats need something more adult. Bow Wow (same color palette as Meow) - There are a couple nice papers and the dogs are cute. This is also juvenile, though. You're The Man (includes a card kit) - The papers are awesome but I don't have any need for the sayings/icons. I don't know why everything has to have "man" on it. The colors and patterns are perfect for teenage boys- why limit the use of the line? Thoughts? What's on your wish list? Why must they continue to make pet papers so juvenile and cartoony? Every company keeps releasing the same thing when it comes to pets. I also don't know why they have a diecut paper, instead of actual diecuts. Well, I know it is cheaper for them, but... I like both of those papers but so much fussycutting! I'm never a huge Photoplay fan, though.

Carta Bella Family Game Night might have been a good option. I loved that collection, but we’re not a board game family (I’ve tried, nobody is interested).

My cat would have hated me using pink papers for his layouts. Even a colorblind creature knows that isn't cool for a cat of his manly stature. He was more of a red fan.

The animals weren't cartoony but not terribly realistic either. Such a beautiful paper line.

I love the B side of the light bulb paper in the You're the Man line.

The cat and dog-o-mania papers are very cute. I love an all over print! That cat stencil is.. a choice though

I do like the colors, and that they used the same colors for cats and dogs, but I don’t care for the illustration style.
