"Good Trouble" follows Callie and Mariana as they embark on the next adventure in their lives in Los Angeles. Mariana tackles the male-dominated world of tech, and Callie faces the harsh realities of the legal system as she clerks for a federal judge. After moving to The Coterie in downtown Los Angeles, Callie and Mariana realize that living on their own is not all it's cracked up to be. Although they have new neighbors, new romances, and new challenges, the sisters must rely on each other to navigate the City of Angels.

Good Trouble is a strong renovation, at least so far. It feels built to disarm skeptics. Go to Full Review

8.9/10
The series deftly captures what it's like when you're in your early 20s and just starting out, navigating a new career, new living situation, and new relationships. Good Trouble is well worth your trouble. Go to Full Review

Good Trouble avoids that trap, keeping the show's narrative focused and balanced, even while introducing all these new characters... Go to Full Review
Emma Clark-Dow The Post NZ 05/04/2023
Although it may look trite on the surface, Good Trouble manages to tackle life’s big dilemmas – equity, career progression, traumatic childhoods – while somehow managing to have fun doing it. Go to Full Review

Fabio M May 4 I saw the first episodes of the first season and I had to leave the series because there is this story between the protagonist whose name I do not remember and a certain Joel who is truly horrible and trivial the ugliest thing is that everything is focused on this story are unable to insert anything else interesting there is the work at the law firm but it is written very bad after this there are only parties in three episodes there are 4 parties, in practice you find yourself looking at parties and only parties. In the first episode it is still worse, I can't watch a TV series that does not propose any kind of content but only sex as if it rained and parties after a while you break the boxes as it happened to me, however and the relationship between Callie and Joel seemed the film 9 weeks and ½ with a duration of 18 hours made me the vault stomach !! See more Jo B @JojoRottenTsWhat 04/23/2024 I didn’t mean to get invested. A background show turned into something I actively put my phone down to watch. See more Penelope M 05/24/2023 I fell in love with The Fosters and when I saw Good Trouble I started to watch it without hesitation. I have adore seeing Mariana and Callie's life transition from teenagers to adults. The show addresses topics that the public would prefer to turn their face away from rather than to see reality. Do I agree with everything? No. That is why we have something called "opinion". I believe the scenarios portrayed are very similar to the struggles of our current world. The best part is, the show gives you the chance to see how making good or bad decisions will affect your life one way or another. It makes you think… what kind of decision you would've made in their shoes? I wish for more tv shows like this one. See more KT C 04/02/2023 Just watched season one. The storyline is interesting, but the characters are not likable. They try too hard, it's not real. See more 07/20/2022 Absolutely love it. Sure opening, realistic, sexy, a bit drama, a bit fun. I love it and will be watching the fosters next to get more background. See more 03/26/2021 I have no complaints! I love the character developments and the real issues they touch on.
