La han criticado por repetitiva, pero creo que los conflictos que las separan en cada momento son distintos y las dinámicas que se desarrollan a partir de eso también son diferentes. Además todo es acumulativo y todo tiene consecuencias. Sigue fantástica. Go to Full Review Jackie K. Cooper jackiekcooper.com Jun 24

Jenaro V @JenaroV 1d De verdad es sorprendente como en esta epoca de tanta inmediatez, en lo que las formulas clasicas ya casi no funciona, en el que los formatos y estructuras narrativas se tiene que estar renovando constantemente para no aburrir a un publico exigente que esta pidiendo cosas nuevas todo el tiempo, esta serie se mantenga, siga vigente, que temporada a temporada se siga sintiendo fresca y entretenida. Que buena es Hacks y que grande eres Jean Smart. See more Tom F Nov 19 A strong season, eerily prescient about the real world of late night TV. See more Goose R. @rodrigug Oct 9 Season and successful female comedian has plateaued and gets kicked out of her Vegas residency. She’s paired by a feisty and opinionated young writer who might just have what the comedian needs. If they can get along. This is one of my favorite comedy series I’ve seen in a long time. We’re all caught up to season 3. Can’t wait for the new season 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿/5 on HBO See more Aye E Sep 17 Smart women going toe-to-toe to survive in their industry.
