While early episodes hint toward a couple of missed opportunities to improve upon itself, HSM: TM: TS makes up for it with stronger character development and a viable plan to move the story beyond its origins. Go to Full Review David Reddish Queerty 03/13/2022
3/4
Its a sweet, if chaste, high school fantasy, and one that is unapologetic about its gayness. Were fine with that. Go to Full Review Kristen Maldonado Kristen Maldonado 06/01/2021
This season wasn't as successful to me as the first season. It got too muddled with romantic drama and not enough focus on the musical. Go to Full Review Kat Pettibone Tell-Tale TV 05/31/2021
3/5
Without the nostalgia of High School Musical to help it along, clever satire is what will ultimately hold a larger demographics' attention in the long run. Go to Full Review Petrana Radulovic Polygon 05/25/2021
The show's only been back for two episodes and already, the high school theater department drama is ramping up and I cannot wait for more. Go to Full Review Bruce R. Miller Sioux City Journal 05/17/2021

Jerry M. @JerryWayneM Nov 23 Definitely the weakest of the four seasons but still a solid watch See more Bianca L Jul 17 The rini break up? A mess. The end of the season? A mess. The only good part? The portwell ship. See more Thalys R @Thalys 08/24/2024 HMSTSTM traz um plost-twist que ninguém esperava nesse final de temporada. A 2º temporada traz um final que traz consigo uma mistura de sentimentos, além de trazer desde o início da série, uma espécie de "metalinguagem do cinema" o que para atuar não são para quaisquer atores. See more JT W 09/05/2022 The musical this season is Beauty and The Beast, which works perfectly with the theme of this season, Love. This season is all about falling in love (and falling out of it), and It's literally perfect. This season also shines the spotlight on the entire ensemble this season giving every character a moment to shine. I think this season really brings Sofia Wylie's Gina Porter to the forefront as the lead, and she is my favorite character. Joshua Basset is amazing and emotional as Ricky Bowen and I can't wait to see the story continue. My favorite show! See more Tim 09/01/2022 Season 2 wasn't as good as season 1 but it was fine. Slow start of a show. See more 05/26/2022 Esta bien pero los mejores episodios son los que aparece Nini See more Read all reviews
