Season 1 Review:
Meant to be a satire of the rich, "elite" political Left, the series makes fun of them but offers an infantilizing imagining of conservatives from a liberal point of view. ... Stories of the pandemic are half-baked and feel tacked on in "Coastal," which otherwise is more interested in political debate. But the special is misguided in its exploration of the crisis we are living through. Dever's monologue is entirely about COVID, and while the actress is accomplished in her delivery, the script is egregiously shallow.

In this capacity, by the basic functioning of art, Rudnick and Roach have failed. As activists, doubly so.
