Chris Vognar Boston Globe 1d
“Sterling Point” has an organic specificity, a care with character backstory and motivation, that makes it better than it needs to be. Go to Full Review
Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times 6d
The series emanates a sense of urgency without cooking up abnormally dramatic situations. Go to Full Review
Michel Ghanem TheWrap Aug 5
Sterling Point is an easy recommendation. It’s funny, charming and knows when to go for the jugular on existential coming-of-age musings. Go to Full Review
Rahul Pratyush The Indian Express 1d
2.5/5
It begins with a promising premise, but before long, it starts piling on characters, romances and twists, eventually becoming just another American YA show. Go to Full Review
Belen Prieto Espinof 2d
4/5
The series explores how grief, family wounds, and inherited secrets shape the lives of its protagonists, offering characters and a plot far more complex than usual in this type of production. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Malys R @RT45702639 1h PLEASE WATCH IT IT’S AMAZING THE VIBE IS AWESOME IT’S BEEN SO LONG SINCE I WATCHED A SHOW LIKE THIS ONE WE NEED MORE See more gia T @giaren 2h The genius of Megan Park plus a phenomenal cast —> guaranteed success See more Ken K @RT25234314 3h Much, much better than the usual teenage summer vacation schlock, at least this one has a decent plot, pretty good and sassy acting and manages to keep (pique?) your interest. Also it's genuinely funny in some places. Having said that, the whole thing is wrapped in too much of a PC wrapper. Like the only sex happens on the night of the girl's 18th birthday? I mean, come on! Plus the ending (don't worry, no spoilers) leaves a lot to be desired. I see this a lot in US TV series, it's as if the writers get bored halfway through the series and want to finish it off as soon as possible - c'mon guys, even *I* could've come up with a better last episode than this. See more Esme S @RT57720666 3h This show is genuinely one of the best representations of how Gen Z talk. All of their conversations just flow so naturally as well. I binged this show in one day! SO, SO, SO GOOG! I do recommend! See more Courtney S @GetOverIt23 5h Why do shows always portray the lesbian couple as toxic/never works out but the straight girl who’s seeing 2 guys at the same time is seen as cute/normal??! See more Sylvia J @RT82555228 5h I liked it a lot. but the plot was a bit predicable, which made the unnecassary woke politics screenwriters squizzed into the story annoying. What is wrong with young girls attracted to eachother and falling in love? Instead they became vehicles for something else. One of them had to present the non binary category, articulating dissatisfaction with her breasts, before they could continue having beautiful sex... Political correct homophobia in mainstream drama disgusts me, which make me a lesbian terf -- I guess!? See more Read all reviews
