What to Know

Critics Consensus

The honeymoon is over for Jessie and Tom's courtship as well as Starstruck's euphoric thrill, but Rose Matafeo's comedy still charms with observations about the ordinary challenges of sustaining extraordinary love.

Judy Berman TIME Magazine 02/13/2023
Starstruck, with its high-wire setup and flair for flirtatious banter, feels much more like an updated take on the 1930s screwball comedy. Go to Full Review
Linda Holmes NPR 04/15/2022
Jessie, who is played by the show creator, Rose Matafeo, is a kind of rom-com heroine we just don't see nearly enough. Go to Full Review
Kimber Myers The Playlist 04/14/2022
A-
The second season is nearly as strong as the just-about-perfect first go-round, offering a half-dozen more bingeable episodes (though lacking a moment as instantly iconic as Jessies post-hook-up dance to "Return of the Mack"). Go to Full Review

B+
Nothing is forced in Starstruck; instead, Matafeo, her friends, and boyfriends (both new and old) bring levity to dating, bringing a smile to any audience member’s face, including mine. Go to Full Review
Sarah Ward Concrete Playground 06/25/2022
Matafeo is still a multi-layered marvel as Jessie, especially as the series wades through more of her tumultuous choices. Go to Full Review
Jodi Walker The Ringer 04/22/2022
As the movie theaters continue to side-eye the rom-com, HBO Max’s ‘Starstruck’ is proof that the small screen could be the perfect home for the beloved genre. Go to Full Review

Yoshi G 08/24/2023 It is very entertaining but Jessie is very hard for me to watch. Actress is great but her character is so incredibly selfish and it literally pains me and I'm always just feeling sorry for Tom. See more Tom M 02/02/2023 I was pleasantly surprised with this series. Entertaining and interesting. A good production. A quick watch with the short episodes and only 6 episodes per season. See more ma'ark t 09/11/2022 Starstruck Season 2 was funny and an easy rom-com to watch. Don't get me wrong it was very enjoyable but just not quite as good as Season 1. Interested to see what happens next season. See more 05/02/2022 Not as good as the first season, but still very funny and endearing! See more 03/30/2022 Still good, but a little more over the top this season. See more The_Matthew 03/25/2022 It's an easy breezy watch but this season does nothing to build on the premise it endeared us to in the first season. My one foot in is now sliding out.
