Season 1 Review: The cast here is so well-selected, the songs so infectious, and the stakes so refreshingly recognizable that the series becomes the first must-watch comedy of the year. Read full review

Season 2 Review: Season 2 proves that the show isn’t even close to running out of steam — each plot point is deliberately designed to take these characters in the most exciting and satisfying direction possible. Read full review

Season 2 Review: Ater an enthusiastically received freshman season faces the tall order of somehow capturing that magic again. Girls5eva season two manages to hit all the same highs, while expanding its range ever so slightly to make room for earnest self-reflection among all those goofy jokes. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Once all that premise establishment is taken care of, Girls5Eva is able to do what it does best: crank out joke after joke about the sometimes degrading and always ridiculous exercise of attempting to work in show business. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Girls5eva, with its sprint through zaniness and invigorating message about getting yourself back out there even if it might be scary, might be the comedy series to capture our transition back into a celebratory world. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Bareillis, who worked on the scores for the musicals “Waitress” and “SpongeBob SquarePants,” contributes some songs, too, and amid a lot of clever, outsized exaggeration, her easygoing presence grounds this promising series nicely. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Girls5eva, just like its characters, does its best to give us the monster hooks we’re used to while poking at the boxes constraining said hooks, coming up with a somewhat mixed but somewhat appealing result. Less Taylor Swift’s evermore, more Taylor Swift’s Reputation. Read full review

This show was fantastic! It has a compelling premise, plenty of laughs, and a hint of 30 rock (even a Fey cameo). The music was often goofy, but at times somewhat plausible which is surprising given Girls5eva is a fictional group. Renée Elise Goldsberry's performance was especially good.

The music was often goofy, but at times somewhat plausible which is surprising given Girls5eva is a fictional group. Renée Elise Goldsberry's performance was especially good. She has said in interviews that she thinks there's great chemistry among the cast, and I definitely agree. Looking forward to season 2!… Expand
