    Thanks to some deft writing and the heartfelt performances by the lead ensemble players, “Jolene” takes some surprising yet authentic turns. ... With immaculate, polished, freshly varnished sets (including double matte framed portraits on the walls) and some conveniently tidy plot resolutions, “These Old Bones” is at times a glossy and overly sentimental memory piece, but it’s in keeping with Miss Dolly’s take on the world: A lot more sunlight than twilight.

    Parton’s Madea-like role in the “Jolene” episode is a big part of its appeal. ... Heartstrings does not suck. Know what would make it suck even less? More Dolly.

    ["These Old Bones" is] a bit pat, and it’s definitely too long, but Turner is warm and peppery, Goodwin is likable, and by end of it, I admit it -- I was reaching for the tissues. ... More interesting, however, is “Jolene,” which isn’t exactly a folksy, feel-good number.

    “Heartstrings” isn’t HBO-caliber TV but for viewers who want feel-good stories with a bit of an edge. this Netflix series offers a more expansive approach to uplifting programming.

    I love Dolly Parton! Not so much this series of story's though. Not unless you want to be utterly depressed.

    Only critique: more Dolly!! The scoring is beautiful, and so are the sets and costumes. But when Dolly’s on the screen, magic happens!
