Season 1 Review:
There's palpable give-and-take energy throughout the young ensemble and even the performances that don't instantly mesh — Sanchez is maybe more naturalistic than the show around her, while Alexander's character demands to annoy you — are still good vehicles for the clever dialogue. The parents are used smartly and sparingly — a couple of one-liners or notes of compassion, and out. The writing and acting in Generation are superior to the directing.

Season 1 Review:
“Genera+ion” will likely prove insufferable to plenty of adults while ringing true to at least some adolescents. ... “Genera+ion” is more grounded and relatable in other scenes, particularly those featuring Chester and Sam or the longing for friendship, acceptance and love as evinced by Greta.

Season 1 Review:
Aims for something between Gen X’s “Freaks and Geeks” and millennial cornerstone “Skins,” though without the shaggy charm and piercing twists that respectively made those series so compelling. “Generation,” though, is undeniably strongest when telling straightforward stories of teen angst and heartbreak — which are, as it turns out, timeless.

Season 1 Review:
Toggling between horny and clueless, the characters on “Genera+ion” feel less like 20-somethings than the pervs of “Euphoria” and less wholesome than the ones on “Sex Education.” Unfortunately, it’s everything that happens in between that’s a bit of a confused mess.
