Younger is an entertaining and heartwarming series and one fans of Bechdel-busting television should seek out. Read full review

There's merry if repetitive humor in the nuances of [Sutton Foster's character's] physical and digital transformation. [3 Apr 2015, p.58]

Liza’s wonderfully written interactions with each of these characters, especially the women, will undoubtedly draw you in and keep you watching. Read full review

The writing is sharp, funny, surprising and also very true to the characters Star has created. As funny as it is, it’s actually more mature than the writing on “Sex and the City.” Read full review

There's a sweetness to the series, an almost admiration for the various crummy behaviors. Read full review

[Sutton Foster is] charming and so is this show, whose entire first season I scooped up in a few sittings. Read full review

Younger is fine. But in a TV universe of ever more scripted series, it also feels unessential, which is exactly what original programming today cannot afford to be. Read full review

Creator of "Sex and the city" Darren Star's femin show is funny and sexy he is like a little women inside, he has the comical humor. Foster's charisma is charming and hilarious as the supporting cast. Grade A-

Delightful use of Sutton Foster to explore an implausible idea. She makes it work. I have missed her since Bunheads was cancelled and am delighted to be able to see her again regularly.

Like many TV Land shows, this isn't going to game change TV. What it gives you is a well written, fun comfortable show. I laughed out loud a few times, and enjoyed my time with these characters!

The premise is interesting. They play it purely for lighthearted comedy, but I think they could have gone a bit deeper or more serious on occasion. It's still watchable, even if I'm not laughing all that much. I like the lead and Duff's character. They are delightfully less mean-spiritedThe premise is interesting.

This is a very warm and endearing show. However, with the premise already being somewhat far-fetched, what could bring some truth and reality to it is casting a more diverse set of people. Why is everyone white? How is this at all a reflection of young working life in Manhattan?

Despicably awful show that somehow creates an idea that millennials are a deciding force, when most of them are struggling with college debt and mediocre careers. The whole "OMG I'm 40, what's a twitter" premise is so demeaning to any age, it's pathetic, and Sutton Foster is so cardboardDespicably awful show that somehow creates an idea that millennials are a deciding force, when most of them are struggling with college debt and mediocre careers. The whole "OMG I'm 40, what's a twitter" premise is so demeaning to any age, it's pathetic, and Sutton Foster is so cardboard that no one would notice her or her age. I don't know how things like this get passed any production team.… Expand
