Warm, loyal PR executive Kate and her longtime friend, no-nonsense psychiatrist Anne, attend a judgmental mommies' group, where they meet timid IT tech Jenny and blindly optimistic real estate agent Frankie. The four quickly form an unlikely friendship, sharing struggles of urban motherhood filled with the chaos of toddlers, tantrums, careers, and identity crises, all while trying to achieve the holy grail: a sense of self. The ensemble comedy is largely drawn from the personal experiences of star/co-creator Catherine Reitman ("Blackish," "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia").

It was instantly clear to me that Workin' Moms was bold and hilarious and raw and it not your everyday sitcom about modern motherhood. Go to Full Review Johanna Schneller Toronto Star Mar 24, 2020
Mom-on-mom judgment still rankles. This show exposes its characters' humanity and fights back with funny. Go to Full Review Amber Dowling Vox Oct 4, 2019
Privilege or not, any comedy that's willing to showcase the navel-gazing survival strategies of parents struggling to keep it all together while raising caring and decent human beings is a welcome addition to the pop culture landscape. Go to Full Review Cristina Escobar LatinaMedia.Co Jun 26, 2021
We see the specter of motherhood, this role that is supposed to fulfill you but requires never-ending self-sacrifice, as what it is: really fucking hard. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Chuck M. @cmeiers Jun 16, 2026 Very solid show with strong characters and a unique point of view! See more Cindy W @RT92706720 Apr 21, 2025 This series is so funny! I loved every episode. I thought the actors were relatable and realistic. I’m watching the series for a second time! See more mapule m @RT08973661 Apr 11, 2025 I hated it, you’d think that with character development and each season they evolved. The writers did a really bad job. Anne’s character gets worser every season, it’s like you’re holding your breath and when you want release she’s back into stupidity. She and her bestie, idk it’s a horrible show, that’s could’ve been written and better developed. We still don’t even know why Anne’s first marriage ended. No one’s growing, you can’t breathe through the show. The moms have money, like Kate and Sloane. What do you mean they’re struggling through that when in reality given how well off they’re? They can afford help. It’s a dumb show. Argh hated it. But it was a kill time I guess See more Ted C @RT13659009 Oct 9, 2024 we watched this a while back, it is a lot of fun See more avery @Averylamont7 Apr 27, 2023 the most amazing show i have watched in a very long time, its funny, heartwarming and I have become so attached to the characters through all the seasons, this show deserves all the credit it can get, ABSOLUTELY AMAZING See more viviana g @RT41643095 Jun 30, 2022 It doens´t quite make it for me. It´s lacking timing and the performances are not so good. Everything is kind of goodish. See more Read all reviews
