The Great North: Season 1 (2021) 100% EDIT “Once I got over my own self-contrived expectations of what it wasn’t, I could appreciate how fantastically hilarious and brilliant the show actually is.” – The Mary Sue Jan 19, 2022 Full Review Superstore: Season 6 (2020) 95% EDIT “It set a solid bar for what a modern workplace comedy can be-funny and smart and intensely honest without ever getting too dark or veering into Very Special Episode territory.” – The Mary Sue Mar 26, 2021 Full Review Made for Love: Season 1 (2021) 95% 3.5/5 EDIT “Milioti is the clear standout among an already impressive cast. Even when the deliberately scattered storytelling wears a little thin, she holds our attention with no trouble.” – The Mary Sue Mar 25, 2021 Full Review Clarice: Season 1 (2021) 42% EDIT “These heavy themes seem to butt heads with the construct of a CBS procedural and end up being played out fairly chunkily.” – The Mary Sue Feb 19, 2021 Full Review The Baby-Sitters Club: Season 1 (2020) 100% 5/5 EDIT “The most substantial way in which the series pays homage to the original is the ways in which it celebrates kindness.” – The Mary Sue Dec 15, 2020 Full Review PEN15: Season 2 (2020) 100% EDIT “PEN15 is easily one of the funniest comedies on right now, and it's made so much better by the fact that the conceit of having two adults play middle schoolers surrounded by actual children is never the source of that comedy.” – The Mary Sue Sep 14, 2020 Full Review Locke & Key: Season 1 (2020) 65% EDIT “The first season was a lot of fun (super dark fun) and it would be nice to see where it goes once it really gets its footing.” – The Mary Sue Feb 11, 2020 Full Review Golden Globes: Season 75 (2018) 83% EDIT “If you want a "feminist" host at a moment in time that is specifically focused on past discrimination and future empowerment, here's a suggestion: HIRE A FREAKING WOMAN. That being said, Seth Meyers -- as I and many saw it -- did a fantastic job.” – The Mary Sue Nov 25, 2019 Full Review Emmys: Season 70 (2018) 29% EDIT “Last night's Emmys-which was hosted by Michael Che... [was] most definitely not funny.” – The Mary Sue Sep 10, 2019 Full Review GLOW: Season 3 (2019) 87% EDIT “This season is just as enjoyable and just as heartbreaking as past ones and the high points are really, really high.” – The Mary Sue Aug 12, 2019 Full Review Four Weddings and a Funeral: Season 1 (2019) 43% 2/5 EDIT “If you're hoping this will rival its source material or hold up against the rest of the new "Romcom Rennaissance," you'll definitely want to lower your expectations.” – The Mary Sue Jul 29, 2019 Full Review Veronica Mars: Season 4 (2019) 90% EDIT “Season four might not have been perfect but it was a bold step in an interesting direction and I'd like to see where a fifth season might go. And if we're left hoping for more, that has to be a win.” – The Mary Sue Jul 18, 2019 Full Review Chilling Adventures of Sabrina: Season 2 83% EDIT “For the most part, this season propels Sabrina's arc and those of her friends forward in a darkly enjoyable way.” – The Mary Sue Apr 5, 2019 Full Review PEN15: Season 1 (2019) 94% EDIT “PEN15, like its name, is goofy and weird as hell. But that goofiness is almost a smokescreen...A darker show about '90s/early 2000s youth would, say, focus on the dangers of young girls developing attachments to strange men in the early days of AIM.” – The Mary Sue Feb 21, 2019 Full Review Big Mouth: Season 3, Episode 1 (2019) EDIT “The most compelling subplot-and the one that's peak Big Mouth's trademark mix of heartwarming optimism and soul-crushing bleakness-is Matthew's.” – The Mary Sue Feb 15, 2019 Full Review Lovesick: Season 1 (2014) 95% EDIT “While that title may not inspire you to give it a shot...the show itself is surprisingly good.” – Pajiba Feb 12, 2019 Full Review EDIT “If that sounds cheesy, it's not, not in the slightest. It's hilarious and heartwarming and sexy.” – The Mary Sue Feb 8, 2019 Full Review Dirty John: Season 1 (2018) 67% EDIT “For all the sensational elements of this story, it's a realistic and empathetic look at abuse, manipulation, and courage.” – The Mary Sue Jan 14, 2019 Full Review Brooklyn Nine-Nine: Season 6 (2019) 100% EDIT “NBC is diving in head first and not letting any of these characters rest. And, again, the jokes are still A+ and rapid-fire.” – The Mary Sue Jan 11, 2019 Full Review BoJack Horseman: Season 5 (2018) 98% EDIT “While, arguably, no single episode in the newly released fifth season may be as devastating as season 4's heart-shattering "Time's Arrow," the season as a whole does succeed in finding new depths of darkness.” – The Mary Sue Dec 22, 2018 Full Review She-Ra and the Princesses of Power: Season 1 (2018) 100% EDIT “This is not the She-Ra you or your parents grew up with. The new show,... is so timely in its messages and so modern in its inclusivity and respect for its young audience that I'm mad that it didn't exist when I was growing up.” – The Mary Sue Nov 9, 2018 Full Review The Good Place: Season 3 (2018) 98% EDIT “This is a show that has repeatedly reinvented itself right in front of our eyes, and season three is no different.” – The Mary Sue Sep 27, 2018 Full Review The Handmaid's Tale: Season 2 (2018) 90% EDIT “These specific references are a bit jarring, but it doesn't mean this season isn't great-it very much is. It's just different, and it can't hurt going in with a separate set of expectations from the original season.” – The Mary Sue Apr 16, 2018 Full Review Everything Sucks!: Season 1 (2018) 72% EDIT “I'm so glad I kept watching, though. Because while much of the show is uneven and a bit of a mess, it eventually stumbles into something wonderful.” – The Mary Sue Mar 1, 2018 Full Review The Good Place: Season 2 (2017) 100% EDIT “The possibilities and mysteries of this season are so exciting, and we have no idea where this ride will go.” – The Mary Sue Dec 29, 2017 Full Review
