Representations of neurodiversity on screen often borders on the sentimental and the pedantic. We could do with a lot more authenticity instead. Go to Full Review

Succumbing neither to darkness nor schmaltz, it's a real standout. Go to Full Review
Eric Deggans NPR 01/22/2022
Katims has created an emotional, touching series that gives each character a compelling, empathetic storyline. Along the way, he's provided an important example for how TV can improve its depiction of characters on the spectrum. Go to Full Review

On a scene by scene basis hardly anything that happens in any given episode qualifies as a joke, intentional or otherwise. Go to Full Review

Silje Maria T @RT79869854 12/29/2024 Loved it ! Thought it was a good way to let people see there is more than one way to be autistic. Even though it doesn't represent everyone with autism, I think it'd be next to impossible. Loved and laughed so much this serie See more Michael S @RT01071574 12/16/2024 Really wonderful show. Made me both laugh and cry. Really sad there is only one season. See more 07/19/2022 I was trying to think of reasons to give this show less than 5 stars and I simply cannot. such a heart-warming yet sometimes tragic show that does a great job of depicting autism at many different levels. I cannot recommend this show enough. See more 06/13/2022 Not only an enjoyable watch, but a huge step in the right direction for authentic autism representation! See more 05/16/2022 As someone who has autism, I really love seeing a series like this. Modern day, and showing all of the struggle and the good moments. Every person with autism is different, so I like seeing these 3 characters portrayed realistically. See more MICHAEL M @MichaelMpeaty 04/23/2022 Why a show about people on the spectrum will not even mention the word spectrum once is ridiculous to me. Violet drowns the show so much she should just have her own one man show. See more Read all reviews
