Season 1 Review: Despite the sloppiness by the show’s producers, and some of its repetitiveness, we still appreciate Underwood’s coming out journey enough to make Coming Out Colton a worthwhile watch. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Coming Out Colton makes the point that Underwood's story couldn't be fully done justice in one morning-show interview. Nevertheless, as is frequently true in this genre, expanding that into a six-episode series feels like a bit of a stretch. Read full review
