      • Feb 24, 2023
        Perverted… one of the scenes had the two teenage girls sucking on the others breast in the middle of the hall. So plucking nasty, and child pornish. Just really disturbing.
      • Apr 14, 2022
        Hilarious and delightful, the band concert scene will make you pee your pants!
      • Sep 14, 2021
        The funniest show since the Office. I'm obsessed with it's authenticity juxtaposing satyr you actually get lost lost in. I love this show. I really really really do.
      • Jul 19, 2021
        PEN15 balances its cringey atmosphere with some mature and inspired moments thanks to Maya Erskine's and Anna Konkle's incomparable chemistry and the sharp writing.
      • May 03, 2021
        This little gem'll sneak up on ya! Anna and Maya are empathetically exaggerated and bitingly funny in Pen15, an indie-vibe high school comedy that packs a pathotic and poignant punch —— no suspense of disbelief needed imo. Iroh's grade: B+
      • Apr 21, 2021
        Pen15 season one is better than two in all accounts. It introduces the characters very well. It has extremely entertaining episodes. It's also cringe, very very cringe.
      • Apr 11, 2021
        If the gender roles were reversed, this show would get me too'd into the next dimension.
      • Dec 14, 2020
        Wonderful show. So funny, awkward, and true to life. Having grown up around this time, it consistently makes me laugh.
      • Oct 26, 2020
        I spent the first episode trying to work out how anyone could think these girls are 13. I mean wow. Insert "how do you do, fellow kids?" meme from 30 Rock.
      • Oct 06, 2020
        I am in my 70's. I just finished watching both seasons and sorry there is no more yet. I loved it. Soooo funny and the casting is great and all super actors. Kudos !!
