More Critic Reviews for Twenties Season 1 All Critics (14) | Top Critics (9) | Fresh (13) | Rotten (1) It's a series that clearly wants to set itself apart with its visual style and rhythm, and, for the most part, it succeeds in that regard. Mar 6, 2020 | Rating: B+ | Full Review… Tambay Obenson indieWire Top Critic While the dialogue sometimes veers into cliché, Twenties is sharpest when its characters work through issues rooted in Waithe's own path to Hollywood power. Mar 6, 2020 | Full Review… Hannah Giorgis The Atlantic Top Critic Newcomer Gibbs is good, but it's a shame Waithe doesn't appear in her own story - a sharply written, often amusing one. Mar 2, 2020 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review… Verne Gay Newsday Top Critic From creator Lena Waithe comes this light yet smart, easy-to-binge comedy about three black women in their, yes, 20s trying to carve out careers in Hollywood. Mar 27, 2020 | Full Review… Judy Berman TIME Magazine Top Critic Twenties never comes down hard one way or the other about what makes for good black art, but revels in showing people having the debate... Mar 5, 2020 | Full Review… Jennifer Wilson The New Republic Top Critic Gibbs' easygoing chemistry with each of her co-stars - including recurring player Kim Whitley, who plays Hattie's lonely mom - mean that the central trio make for believable besties from their very first scene together. Mar 4, 2020 | Full Review… Inkoo Kang Hollywood Reporter Top Critic For the moment, Waithe's Twenties is fine, it gets by, but here's hoping it exceeds that to become the Black excellence Waithe believes she can deliver-and that her viewers deserve. Mar 4, 2020 | Rating: B- | Full Review… Kellee Terrell AV Club Top Critic Twenties is definitely light on character development, but Gibbs shines as Hattie and the perspective the show presents is unique. Mar 12, 2020 | Full Review… Joel Keller Decider Twenties feels like it's cutting corners. Mar 11, 2020 | Full Review… Carmen Phillips Autostraddle Twenties' is most enjoyable when it allows itself to be unapologetically silly, and one way it maintains its own sense of quirky identity is by peppering Old Hollywood references (black-and-white movies, Sinatra-style big band tunes) into the story. Mar 6, 2020 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review… Malcolm Venable TV Guide Twenties is a hot mess in all the best ways. Mar 5, 2020 | Full Review… Dominic Patten Deadline Hollywood Daily Gibbs and Brown possess an unmistakable chemistry that makes Twenties eminently watchable, if only because it appears to be on track to answer a question that thus far, no other show has: What happens when the #MeToo bogeyman is a black woman? Mar 4, 2020 | Full Review… Soraya Nadia McDonald The Undefeated View All Critic Reviews (14) Audience Reviews for Twenties: Season 1 Mar 15, 2020 Hilarious.
