For so many reasons, I sincerely hope Sort Of gets renewed for another season, but one of my main interests is to see more of how the show will grapple with gender dynamics within Sabi's family. Go to Full Review E. Alex Jung New York Magazine/Vulture 12/01/2021
Sort Of is gentle with its characters even as the stakes are existential. Everyone feels fully inhabited, and as Sabi's carefully compartmentalized worlds begin to collide, a fizzy alchemy occurs. Go to Full Review Stephanie Zacharek TIME Magazine 12/01/2021
Baig, an affable performer as well as a keen observer of human behavior, is one of the most intriguing new voices I've encountered on TV this year. Go to Full Review Stephanie Morgan Common Sense Media 02/22/2024
Sabi's character, both guarded and deeply likable, offers a fresh perspective on resilience and the dynamics of support within their community. Go to Full Review Jason Flatt But Why Tho? A Geek Community 01/23/2023
8.5/10
Sort Of is excellent for its comedy and drama and revolutionary for its total causality with regards to its gender, sexuality, and racial representation. Absolutely enjoy it for what it both represents and for what it is all on its own. Go to Full Review Bill Brioux Brioux.tv 08/30/2022
Unlike many of the characters, this show isn’t finding itself; it’s there. Nothing feels forced or preachy either. Like on many other shows, these are diverse characters just trying to figure out who they are. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
