I really enjoyed the series. Its biggest weakness is that it seems to lack energy until about the fifth episode. It’s not that the first four episodes are bad, I just felt like the story didn't really kick into full gear until Episode 5. After the first episode I was hesitating whether to continue watching, but I hung in there and I don't regret it. On the contrary. I even decided to get the book on which it was based so I could compare it with the show. (07.09.2017)

After a shaky start, the story started unfolding in an interesting way, the authors provided more and more insight into all the main characters. I ended up having a surprisingly good time. 4*+ (25.07.2019)

The pilot seemed to me to be quite chaotic, the story jumped like a drunk frog back and forth, in addition to that, there was an introduction to a fairly large group of characters and I wasn't too sure if this series would interest me. Then the conflict at school came, the boy narrowly avoided lynching, and I understood that the series would be about amazing American morality, education, and other similar matters, and it was clear that there would be more episodes as well.

I'm glad that I gave the series a chance, the second episode develops individual characters and the story, the conflicts between both sides are spreading even among those who were previously uninterested, and as is typical for American culture, there is also a case of sexual harassment in the first grade of elementary school, so overall I'm satisfied. Additionally, I have to admit that alongside Nicole Kidman, Reese Witherspoon delivers the best acting performance, even though I don't particularly like her. (06.09.2017)

Okay, it's definitely decided, this series is good. With each episode, the creators offer me the opportunity to get to know the individual characters better and to immerse myself in the story. I am actually surprised at how much the story, mostly about women in households, their relationships and children, has captivated me, but it has happened. (06.09.2017)

I don't know if it's just my feeling or reality, but with every episode, the series seems to be getting better. It's funny that Ziggy should visit a psychologist because it looks like he belongs to the minority in the community who, unlike others, doesn't need such help. (07.09.2017)

I have already made up my mind, it really gets better with each episode. In this one, the events really started moving nicely, I got immersed in the plot, and before I knew it, so much time had passed and it was over. More and more, I regret that Renata doesn't have more space in the series because Laura Dern portrays her excellently. (07.09.2017)

A high-quality conclusion of a high-quality series. The school party was successful, the story plot escalated very well, and I had a great time, even though I figured out who was behind the bullying among the first graders and who signed Jane so ugly. (07.09.2017)

I’ve said before that I had serious concerns about the second season, and even though a few of the episodes had some obvious flaws, the result was a pleasant surprise. Two new characters appeared in the story: while Elizabeth Howard only served to stretch out the story, Mary Louise Wright portrayed by Meryl Streep was a great addition to it. An incredibly annoying woman with lips clenched like the rectum of a heterosexual at a gay bar. An excellent character. I can tell by the fact that I occasionally thought about how happy I would be if she had some sort of a fatal accident. The second season was a bit weaker than the first one, but deserves four stars for its excellent atmosphere. (18.11.2019)

I wasn't overly hyped for the second season, fearing it might just ride the coattails of the first one. Yet, the opening episode pleasantly surprised me. The pace was leisurely, as expected, but the plot intrigued me. Plus, Meryl Streep's portrayal of Mary Louise Wright was delightfully irritating, leaving me curious about what's next. (17.11.2019)

The second episode really stepped it up compared to the first one. While nothing major happened, the attention to detail was top-notch. Once again, the creators nailed the atmosphere, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. (17.11.2019)

The third episode hit a bit of a plateau in terms of plot development, so I'll keep this review brief. The main storyline didn't move forward much, but I did get a deeper dive into the American education system, reaffirming what I've long thought about it. (17.11.2019)

Once again, the story didn't progress much, with Amabella's celebration taking up a good chunk of time, reminiscent of last time with the school issue. These constant flashbacks are beginning to grate on me, much like Mary Louise. She's a pain, but I've got to hand it to the screenwriter for crafting her character and to Meryl Streep for bringing her to life. (17.11.2019)

I can't shake the feeling that the second season is somehow losing its touch. The characters' stories feel repetitive, except for Celeste's, with her looming trial adding some much-needed tension. The plot seems to have hit a standstill, and what was discussed in the previous episode is just being rehashed in this one. 4*- (17.11.2019)

The episode finally brought the much-needed development. The creators handled the trial with absolute mastery, and I would gladly add a fifth star if it weren't for the completely unnecessary storyline with dying Elizabeth. This character was clearly added to the story to stretch out the plot. (18.11.2019)

The previous episode already had me excited, and the finale just sealed the deal. While I still found the contrived plot around Elizabeth a bit of a stretch, the courtroom drama delivered once again, and hurricane Renata was a highlight for me. (18.11.2019)
