What to Know

Critics Consensus

B Positive's familiar sitcom trappings are elevated by its charming cast - especially the weird and winsome comedic stylings of Tony winner Annaleigh Ashford.

Michael Starr New York Post 11/11/2020
It's almost a given by now that any Chuck Lorre sitcom will be cleverly cast and sharply written, with snappy one-liners offset by a smattering of heartfelt sincerity. Go to Full Review Brian Lowry CNN.com 11/06/2020
Thanks to its stars, B Positive earns mildly favorable scores at the outset, even if the title, as sitcom grades go, would be a bit too positive. Go to Full Review Caroline Framke Variety 11/06/2020
In Ashford's hands, even Gina's most basic lines get a smart delivery, and she allows just enough genuine vulnerability peek through that the character becomes the show's most intriguing by a mile. Go to Full Review Natalia Trzenko La Nación (Argentina) 01/13/2022
Middleditch's (Silicon Valley) ability for physical comedy and renowned Broadway actress Ashford's immense talent of helps a lot. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut 05/11/2021
2.5/5
B Positive has an interesting enough hook to be worth returning to for now, but it's lacking any big laughs or genuinely new ideas. Go to Full Review Aaron Barnhart Primetimer 05/11/2021
Casting is key, and Annaleigh Ashford nails it as Gina, which one would expect from the Tony Award winner for her portrayal of Essie in You Can't Take It With You. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

07/08/2022 I liked the second season but not as much as the first season. I also do not like the new intro song. I liked the first season intro much better. See more 01/25/2022 I find this show to be unwatchable. Overacted and always going for the cheap laughs- the cast deserves better! See more 11/19/2021 The lead actress voice is so appalling I expect my mirrors and glass windows to break.Amazing list of back up actors for such a lousy pair of leads. See more 07/02/2021 "The more you give, (more you give,) The more you live, (more you live,) Your happiness, (happiness!) Is relative. (Ahh, ahh,) But if you're feelin' like crap, It's time to face the facts. It's your prerogative, (yoooour prerogative,) To be positive." With such a wonderful theme song, how can one not enjoy the show? Well done, love Anna Leigh Ashford. See more sam t @sam_windsor 06/28/2021 not bad , its kinda funny See more 05/24/2021 A light hearted comedy in a tense time. Isn't always a home run but delivers some solid singles and doubles along the way. See more Read all reviews
