Generation tv series

"[It] is undeniably strongest when telling straightforward stories of teen angst and heartbreak — which are, as it turns out, timeless." 

"Uneven direction, but strong writing and a great young cast (...) The result at times feels more like an assemblage of big ideas and feelings than a coherent or cohesive show" 

"'Generation' tries so hard [to be authentic and raw] it’s exhausting, with characters who feel like they’re burdened with communicating everything the Barnzes want to say about Generation Z, rather than being allowed to exist as people first" 

"An astute drama-comedy featuring well-drawn characters." 

"It already has the comedy, but it needs to dwell more on real, heartfelt character developments to really shine." 

"[It] aims for slick edginess but devolves into nonsense (…) Rating: ★ (out of 5)" 

"[It] accentuates the comedy of teenage naivety, even as it seeks out the gaps in its young characters’ armor, sliding its skewers into their deepest wounds and vulnerabilities (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 4)"
