IndieWireSteve GreeneAug 25, 2022
Season 1 Review: Figuring things out is the fuel that drives “Everything I Know About Love,” and its debut season reads like a first chapter of a book that’s still being written. With luck, there’ll be more time to spend with these four before long. Read full review

VarietyMike McCahillNov 17, 2022
Season 1 Review: Bottling whatever optimism pre-Brexit Britain possessed, the series proceeds with the breezy confidence of Working Title’s 1990s romcoms, and a similar streak of generosity towards its supporting players that bulks out its sense of a many-storied city. Read full review

The TelegraphEleanor HallsJul 11, 2022
Season 1 Review: Alderton (who also created the show) has always been a wryly self-deprecating writer and her obvious self-awareness keeps this love letter to female friendship as charming as her memoir. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Everything I Know About Love isn’t a show to think about too deeply. It’s a joyous, cringeworthy, surface-level celebration of being a twentysomething and all the neuroses and panic that comes along with it. ... It’s a show made for the people it’s about. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Everything I Know About Love is a refreshingly candid and uninhibited portrait of a maligned generation. Read full review

Radio TimesFlora CarrJul 11, 2022
Season 1 Review: Everything I Know About Love is an easy, fun watch, and feels comfortingly nostalgic, populated by hopeful, funny young women dressed in Kate Moss for Topshop and navigating their first jobs, first loves, and above all, the ups and downs of female friendship. Read full review

The Daily Beast Fletcher PetersAug 24, 2022
Season 1 Review: The reason here is our two leads, longtime best friends Maggie (Emma Appleton) and Birdy (Bel Powley), who have enough BFF chemistry to greenlight a handful of seasons together. ... Unfortunately, though, Everything I Know About Love spends so much time unpacking Maggie and Birdy’s relationship that it droops a bit in the B- and C-plots. Read full review

DeciderJoel KellerAug 25, 2022
Season 1 Review: The friendship at the center of Everything I Know About Love is what is going to fuel the show and keep it flying off into just showing hipster nonsense. But the first episode felt much longer than its 43-minute runtime because of all that hipster nonsense. Read full review

The GuardianLucy ManganJul 11, 2022
Season 1 Review: Everything I Know About Love has been billed as a Sex and the City for our times, but the characterisation isn’t strong enough and it doesn’t have that touchstone’s wit, subtlety or wisdom – or at least distance from the turbulent time depicted that would pass for the latter. But it’s fun to spend time with Maggie and her gang. Exhausting, but fun. Read full review
