Bob and Carol Chase thought that raising five babies was difficult ... until their sons and daughters turned into five teenagers. Each quint has his or her unique personality and look - sometimes it's hard to believe they're all the same age and from the same family.
Quintuplets — Season 1

What to Know

Critics Consensus

The always affable Andy Richter can't save Quintuplets from its lame plotting and cringe-inducing attempts at comedy.

Andrew Ryan Globe and Mail 01/08/2020
The actors playing the quints don't actually resemble each other, but it doesn't matter. The kids drop into scenes to deliver smart-ass punchlines, then wander off. Bob and Carol roll their eyes. There's not much in the way of inventive plotlines, either. Go to Full Review
Joanne Weintraub Houston Chronicle 01/08/2020
Andy Richter's presence in Quintuplets will attract fans of his short-lived Fox comedy Andy Richter Controls the Universe, but his new show is as dumb and formulaic as his old one was smart and imaginative. Go to Full Review
Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times 01/08/2020
There is a leering attitude to the humor that the writers may have mistaken for edginess. Go to Full Review

2.5/4
It had a few good lines... Still, it is rather routine and probably won't get much buzz. Go to Full Review
Bruce R. Miller Sioux City Journal 01/08/2020
A unique idea -- life with quintuplets -- is squandered by bad acting and bad writing. Go to Full Review
