Labor of Love is unspeakably tacky. Yet it has a purpose. Go to Full Review Daniel D'Addario Variety 05/22/2020
No pleasure is truly guilty, but this may come close; that it's a pleasure all the same, though, is all an entertainment-starved viewer may need to hear. Go to Full Review Melissa Camacho Common Sense Media 06/03/2020

I've never seen such an unintentionally successful lampooning of the traditional project of procreative heterosexual marriage. Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider 05/26/2020
Parenthood definitely changes you, and we're curious to see if the male contestants in Labor Of Love are truly ready for the responsibility. We just wish the format weren't so damned skeevy. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

06/19/2020 I love this show!!! It is so nice to see a well spoken lead with a great head on her shoulders. Great concept that really calls out the gender roles. Camera work is very professional and high quality. My only critique is the voice over work. So much editing with vocals laid over the top to make it appear as if some things are being said in the moment when they were really just laid over top in post production. I know all reality TV shows do this but it is really over used on this series and incredibly obvious. See more Read all reviews
