High school is hard for all students, but it's even more difficult for somebody who is dealing with personal challenges that most teens don't. That is the case for Alexa, who is undergoing cancer treatment while trying to adjust to high school. She maintains her outgoing personality and enthusiasm for life despite her health issues, thanks in part to loyal best friend Katie remaining by her side through it all. Whether they're at school, home or the hospital, the girls are always by each other's side through thick and thin. Also part of Alexa's life is determined and protective mother Lori.

Mike Hale New York Times 03/29/2018
As a comedy, Alexa & Katie is about average, or a little below, if graded against the cable shows it resembles. But it's a little more tough-minded than you might expect. Go to Full Review Hanh Nguyen IndieWire 03/26/2018
B
Overall, the show's charismatic and peppy ensemble is what makes these storylines work, especially because the show is incredibly silly, sometimes painfully. Go to Full Review Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter 03/22/2018
Alexa & Katie is probably pitched at tweens and pre-tweens with high school dreams and their parents who don't mind leaving those kids with 13 episodes of unremarkable, uncontroversial, completely well-intentioned programming. Go to Full Review Meghan O'Keefe Decider 04/13/2018
Alexa & Katie is the kind of show they hardly make anymore: it's entertainment served up with a dash of hope. Go to Full Review Tess Cagle The Daily Dot 04/11/2018
4/5
The Disney Channel-like sitcom offers a heartwarming, comedic story about battling cancer, coming of age, and the power of teenage friendship. Go to Full Review Joyce Slaton Common Sense Media 03/27/2018

Samaira S @RT87332470 5d LOVE the show. It's funny and emotional at times. The last episode is the best and so emotional. Absolute just watch. If you haven't watched this show yet, you're missing out. See more Maddi K @Maddi-3 Jun 5 This series is the best show I watched as a child. It used to be my favorite comfort watch. It was funny and serious at the right parts, and it taught me so much as a child! See more Oatlegile T @RT39999972 04/06/2025 Alexa is such a attention seeker and thinks about herself and when someone shouts at her it's a problem but if someone tries to shout at her its a problem and lucas doesn't get as much attention as alexa. Alexa has a attitude I just don't like alexa BUT THE REST OF THE ACTORS ARE OKAY AND KATIE CAN BE A LITTLE DRAMATIC ABOUT ALEXA AND HER CANCER See more Deivid F @RT78926649 02/14/2025 Sim. Alcançou a perfeição, falo com tranquilidade. See more James V @James09007 05/22/2023 Its a solid show, with the first season having tight writing. However, as the seasons continue, it feels like they ran out of material. But the first season is pretty good. See more Annabell M @RT09925049 04/06/2022 Totally recommend this show to anyone 10-18, it's a classic! See more Read all reviews
