Judy Berman TIME Magazine Sep 2
The shoulder pads are indeed impressive, as is the rest of the brightly colored, richly textured production design. Go to Full Review Chris Vognar Boston Globe Aug 22
It’s just not every day you see a sexy, over-the-top stop-motion melodrama inspired by Pedro Almodóvar... I mean, it’s possible you’ve seen such a thing before. If so, I’ll have what you’re having. Go to Full Review Daniella Mazzio Chicago Reader Aug 21
Women Wearing Shoulder Pads is exciting for more than its representation. The season’s arc deftly weaves together themes like matriarchy, queer identity, and colonial greed across episodes both absurdly funny and deliciously melodramatic. Go to Full Review Jenny Nixon Common Sense Media Jan 13
4/5
If a 1980s telenovela were mixed with an old-school Rankin-Bass holiday special and directed by Pedro Almodóvar, you might end up with something similar to this show. It's niche, yes—but wildly unique. Go to Full Review KT Mahe For Your Reference Podcast Oct 10
4/5
The choice of stop-motion animation pairs well with the intrigue, playfulness and straight-up drama of the world of Women Wearing Shoulder Pads. Go to Full Review Oti For Your Reference Podcast Oct 10
4/5
Stop-motion, quirky, and delightfully surreal, this show ticks all the right boxes. It takes a moment to find its stride, but once it does, it’s as weirdly wonderful as its cuys. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Kalissa H. @kali_416 Jan 27 I did not think I would enjoy it as much as I did. It’s unusual and gripping. See more Nina F Jan 4 Visually interesting with an unconventional format that is refreshingly chaotic. It is both humorous and darkly heartfelt. Worth the watch. See more John P. @1GodzillaFan Nov 25 Genuinely a good show if given a chance. The stop motion is solid and the plot is pretty good. However it is in Spanish and that might turn people off. See more Audrey S Oct 16 Hilarious but also surprisingly sweet and heartfelt with a satisfying if bittersweet conclusion. I absolutely love this show. Please watch it. If you don't want to watch read subtitles there's also a dubbed version. See more JJ O Oct 13 It's an odd show, but I loved it. It reminds me of the telenovelas my mother used watch, with a small taste of absurdist/random humor. See more Bernardo L Sep 23 Fresh. Quirky. Tons of fun. And all that in bite-sized episodes. Who could ask for more? I am a native Spanish speaker so watching the series in Spanish with no subtitles made it all the more enjoyable. And the music is so fun and clever. I find myself rewatching the episodes just so I can hear the songs again. If there really is going to be a full movie out soon, I cannot wait! Animo Coquita! See more Read all reviews
