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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Everything I Know About Love is a refreshingly candid and uninhibited portrait of a maligned generation.
-
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.

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.
