Based on the acclaimed film of the same name, this Netflix-original series follows a group of students of color at Winchester University, a predominantly white Ivy League college. The students are faced with a landscape of cultural bias, social injustice, misguided activism and slippery politics. Through an absurdist lens, the series uses irony, self-deprecation, brutal honesty and humor to highlight issues that still plague today's"post-racial" society. Creator Justin Simien serves as an executive producer.

Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com "Dear White People" has wonderfully fluid cinematography, and is edited as well as anything on TV. Sure, the junior year of "DWP" hasn't quite found its voice, but that aspect of this year almost makes it the show's most ambitious. Nov 18, 2019 Full Review Lawrence Ware New York Times The college campus satire attempts to reconcile two complicated histories, and mostly succeeds. Aug 26, 2019 Full Review Carmen Phillips Autostraddle I'm not sure that Season Three of Dear White People is it's strongest season, it finds itself lost and meandering for the entire first arc before settling in and ending the season on firm ground. Still, it's positively its gayest season by a mile. Aug 20, 2019 Full Review Michael Cuby them. In its third season, Dear White People continues its satirical plunge into the fictional Winchester University with more daring jokes and involved storylines. Nov 1, 2022 Full Review LV Taylor AwardsCircuit.com Season Three continues to creatively and beautifully hold up a mirror to society at large for some much needed introspection and reflection. Rated: 4/4 Nov 18, 2019 Full Review Dan Ashby Cultured Vultures It is the boldest season so far, but the risks it takes only serve to elevate a highly entertaining and thought provoking show. Rated: 8.5/10 Aug 17, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Fetti Loses a lot of what made the first two seasons fun to watch, I wouldn't invest any more time in this. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/16/24 Full Review Lamalas E This got a season 3!? How? This show is bad. I just don't know what to say about it that I didn't already cover in my reviews of season 1 and 2. But I'll check it out and see. Yep. Same things. Inaccurate information, misleading hyperbole that purposely leaves out important historical context and other important information. Continues the disheartening trend of degrading my fellow African American brothers and sisters by making us look like racists and pushing examples of stereotypes. Makes me embarrassed for the people involved in this. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/29/22 Full Review Audience Member I think this season (and whole series) was very well written, acted, edited and produced. Just finished watching season 4. It was great to see something with such clear personality, perspective and drive that started from the beginning and carried all the way through. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member After the end of season 2, I had great expectations for season 3. It lost direction and by killing the narrator it killed the wit and dark humor that made season 1 and 2 one of the greatest things on tv. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Racial issues and relations of been tackled in film and TV for years. Where many have used clever, thought provoking writing, and deep meaningful characters to send a message with great effect, this show uses a hammer. It's message is one that pits groups against one another rather than try and see common humanity. It imputes whole groups rather than individuals for there beliefs and biases which will likely have the opposite effect to the goals the producers of this show had in mind. The stories un for the most part unrealistic, and the characters are caricature's of what the producers view as allies and enemies. In the end the show is a chore to sit through. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member And it sinks even deeper. I couldn't finish the season. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
