The best part of Girls5Eva is I know when I watch it again, there will be jokes I missed. It’s that fast and clever. Go to Full Review Kelly Lawler USA Today 12/29/2021
With hilarious earworms ("Dream Girlfriends" and "The Splingy"), a cast brimming with energy and chemistry, "Girls" is the kind of happy-go-lucky sitcom that's perfect for a post-"Ted Lasso" world. Go to Full Review Lucy Mangan Guardian 12/21/2021

Marisa R @RT60620070 10/01/2024 very funny and fast paced. Truly enjoyable. I binged all three season in a few days!!! See more Nitsan F @RT29440553 07/29/2024 Very loud and annoying. Most of the characters are horrible to hear talk - and that's all they do non-stop. See more Jackson M @Nshvlleindie 04/18/2024 It's pretty cringeworthy if we're being honest. It's not funny, it's not ironic, and it tries way too hard. See more Rachael B @Rachael0515 03/14/2024 I love this show! These ladies of comedy make gen x look cool in 2024. See more Mark S @MarkSteger 02/28/2022 Girls5Eva (TV 2021): 4 members of a '90s girls group reunite to give fame another try. A TV sit-com where the 4 characters never jell. There's no reason to believe they were ever friends. The wit is forced, like jokes picked up from the rejects on the floor of a writers' room.
