Season 1 Review:
While the friendship between Midler and Hershey was really given time to grow onscreen, this bonding feels more rushed. There are moments worth tuning in for, though. ... Menzel still crushes the musical aspect of CC. And Long manages to imbue cold Hillary with a nice warmth.

Season 1 Review:
When they’re on, they’re really on, spending every waking moment cheerfully chattering away about anything and everything. That sort of happy dynamic is relatively easy to replicate, but when things get difficult, the chemistry between the actresses isn’t crackling enough to really sell the passion behind the conflict.

Season 1 Review:
The remake's biggest flaw is that it isn't funny. There are tears, but there isn't much in the way of laughs. Lifetime's Beaches isn't bad. For a TV movie, it's pretty good. And if you haven't seen the original, you'll like the remake more. But the younger generation is smart enough to know that the original is better.
