More Critic Reviews for You're the Worst Season 1 All Critics (32) | Top Critics (17) | Fresh (26) | Rotten (6) Despite an unusually cynical and misanthropic worldview, the show is romantic at heart. The two leads are charismatic and funny, and the writing, although frequently coarse, is also frequently clever. Jul 16, 2014 | Full Review… Tom Conroy Media Life Top Critic It's a masterful non-rom-com. Sep 8, 2014 | Full Review… Joanne Ostrow Denver Post Top Critic I find these misanthropes truly interesting and pretty damn funny. Jul 17, 2014 | Full Review… Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com Top Critic You're the Worst feels very much like the sitcom version of an R-rated romantic comedy, in which tawdriness and dirty jokes are used to make a square and sentimental boy-meets-girl story seem sophisticated. Jul 17, 2014 | Full Review… Willa Paskin Slate Top Critic Though relatively unknown, [Chris] Geere and (especially) [Aya] Cash are sharp and winning; they don't trade banter as much as they hot box it. Jul 17, 2014 | Full Review… Andy Greenwald Grantland Top Critic You're The Worst is perfectly willing to let its sparks fly while also managing to warm viewers to the overall premise of two flammable, relationship-phobic humans finding each other in fits and spurts. Jul 7, 2014 | Rating: B | Full Review… Ed Bark Uncle Barky Top Critic Boundary-pushing graphic sex and language in funny series. Jul 24, 2014 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… Joyce Slaton Common Sense Media At one point in the premiere, Jimmy compliments Gretchen on one of the many damning but clever speeches she throws his way, calling her words, "Funny, true and mean - my favorite kind." Personally, I'd say the same of You're the Worst as a whole. Jul 15, 2014 | Rating: 9/10 | Full Review… Isaac Feldberg We Got This Covered It's Gretchen and Jimmy's repartee, their unrelenting need to voice their awful thoughts, that makes Worst worth watching. Jul 14, 2014 | Full Review… Sara Smith Kansas City Star You're the Worst... evince[s] an acidic sweetness through its bleakness. Jul 6, 2014 | Full Review… Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette If you want to do more than merely tolerate a comedy -- in other words, if you want to fall in love with one -- try binging on FX's You're the Worst. Sep 10, 2014 | Full Review… Maureen Ryan Huffington Post Cash and Greere have an curious chemistry that gives the series some added life. Jul 2, 2018 | Full Review… Jessica Johnson Time Out Chicago View All Critic Reviews (32) Audience Reviews for You're the Worst: Season 1 Dec 01, 2019 HULU is really presenting some excellent shows, and YOU'RE THE WORST is one of the best. I haven't seen any of the previous work of the actors in the show, but they are all excellent in YOU'RE THE WORST. Excellent ensemble cast, writing is witty, sharp, and funny, and the pacing is really brisk, which is great! (I appreciate the intertextuality!) James L Jun 19, 2019 THIS IS THE WORST SHOW EVER! THE ONLY GOOD PART ABOUT IT ARE THE SEX SCENES!!!!! robert m Jan 03, 2019 Unfunny romantic comedy Harsh C Oct 20, 2018 Funny and clever Youre the Worst is a pleasant surprise. Good B Dec 17, 2017 Love the dynamic between the two actors. Great modern relationship storys that unveils the not so bright side of relationships, including cheating, jealousy, commitment, independence and other sensitive themes while keeping things funny. The drama doesn't seem over the top and it touches on a lot of topics because of the diverse cast of characters which are all written very well and the interwoven plot of each character. The characters feel real, each with their own unique outlook, personality, circumstance and relationship with one another. Definitely one of my favorite shows that follow the lives of a couple and their relationship development while dealing with other relationship issues and dramas through the supporting cast. Also both the main characters are super similar to my own personal beliefs are ideals. Also I have a thing for redheads :) so if i could rate this a 5.5 stars out of 5 I would. James V Aug 24, 2016 I loved season 1, it was such a funny comedy. Then season 2 became one of my favourite TVShows ever. The cast is beyond amazing, specially Aya Cash. This is much more than just a comedy. Miguel Ángel P Aug 13, 2016 You're the Worst's first season is dirty, twisted, sweet, and hilarious in all the right places. Its format may be similar to that of other shows that focus on relationships (i.e. Love, Catastrophe), but You're the Worst outdoes its peers in a very crucial element: character chemistry. Jimmy and Gretchen are quite possibly the most corrupt couple in television history, but they're also fully human and relatable, with Chris Geere and Aya Cash simply being the actors that were born to play them. It also touches on dark content from drug use to depression, yet this never demeans the show's affable tone, and the laughs are big all season long! A great debut season for the best rom-com on television. Peter F Jan 01, 2016 You're The Worst is freshly original and has some very funny moments, and it boasts palpable chemistry from leads Geere and Cash. Sometimes they can be grating as far as being characters, but that's what makes this show different. However, I can see this show getting stale sooner than later. David J Nov 14, 2015 This is a funny show. Well cast and unique characters and it very racy. Good stuff. Jim S Nov 14, 2015 I like this show. The character are interesting and the actor are pretty funny. Not bad.
