What to Know

Critics Consensus

Still getting great mileage from its marriage of the feminist and the frivolous, Minx's second season is smart, sexy, and fun.

Judy Berman TIME Magazine 01/03/2024
Season 2 improved upon Season 1, testing the characters in the crucible of success and complicating their relationship with the addition of a benefactor, played by the wonderful Elizabeth Perkins, whose motives may not be entirely pure. Go to Full Review

4/5
Ordinarily, when a show gives its characters exactly what they want, it starts to flounder, but Minx manages to keep it compelling, and moves lightly on its feet. Go to Full Review
Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe 07/25/2023
The ensemble -- it’s almost a workplace comedy -- is well-defined, energetic, and amusing. Go to Full Review

B+
The show is more robust this time around, with stories that feel keenly relevant today despite its flashy ’70s setting. So, yes, it’s a strong sophomore run, proving that HBO Max was stupid to cancel it and Starz was smart to keep it going. Go to Full Review
Chris Revelle Pajiba 09/08/2023
Minx serves up a delicious tea tray of glamorous clothes, high hair, and groovy vibes, but it also keeps the darker realities firmly in view. Go to Full Review
Audrey Fox Looper.com 08/13/2023
If Minx struggles a little bit in transitioning its underdog porn mag to the big time, it still offers up plenty of heart, classic 1970s showdowns, and yes, more prosthetic penises than you can shake a stick at. Go to Full Review

Steve J @Steve2112 Dec 17 If you’re not easily offended by penises or insecure from seeing strong complex women portrayed you’ll probably enjoy it. The negative reviews here almost parallel the negative reviews of the fictional magazine. It’s all shock value and offensive to men. LOL life imitating art. See more Stace G @RT70118909 Nov 10 Definitely an adult show that has ruffled a few feathers because of the subject matter. I'm not sure why, 50 years later, that nudity still seems to scare people. <shrugs> Perhaps the lack of violence and chase scenes is causing the bad reviews? The portrayal of the time period is spot on in my opinion. The acting is well done, the writing is really good, smart and thought provoking. It tells a good story. I'm sad that it was cancelled before the story could be told completely. See more Mark T @RT50672113 02/07/2025 Absolutely horrible show! Would never get a single positive review if female genitalia was shown like male genitalia is here. Sickening and sad so many women are seeking some sort of revenge against men by exploiting and degrading them. See more Gareth v @geewah 06/23/2024 The prudish will be blinded by the nudity, but what drives this show is clever writing and a cast of engaging characters. Season 2 builds the development of these characters, and it's shame we won't be able to see what's in store for them going forward. See more Darryl A @RT88490720 02/07/2024 The production value is great, the story is pretty good, and the actors are good together. I liked both seasons, and wish more were coming, if just for the awesome setting and 70's vibe. See more Djole P @RT34604155 09/29/2023 I think I enjoyed season one a lot more.
