Critic Reviews

Season 1 Review:
Crucially, both actors [Connie Britton and Taylor Schilling] invest their characters with some much-needed animation and individuality, modulating the programme’s otherwise monotonous tone of grief, grief and yet more unimaginable grief. ... But there are many underwritten and uninvolving other characters whose scenes will have you counting the minutes till you can be back in Dee Dee’s New Jersey mansion, drinking wine and talking trash about her dead husband.

Season 1 Review:
Finding drama and resilience in the seeds of tragedy, Dear Edward is a sensitively done series that never fully recovers from its challenging premise . . . Intended to be uplifting, the Apple TV+ show is too much of a bummer to wholly recommend boarding this flight.

Season 1 Review:
A crushingly earnest melodrama. Despite many capable performances, few characters get enough screen time to evolve into more than stock types with generic problems. The sole exception, until its pat conclusion, is the story of the precocious, anxious, angry, erratic Edward.

Season 1 Review:
The first season of Dear Edward feels like 10 hours of 10 (or more) people crying at each other nonstop. There’s no room for anything to echo because the cacophony of misery is so loud and so pervasive. Dear Edward is made with enough craft and driven by enough solid performances that it doesn’t usually feel like straight-up misery porn.
