Though Grosse Pointe Garden Society doesn't get off to the strongest start, it's funny and dramatic enough to keep you tuned in.
-
The first four episodes of Grosse Pointe Garden Society introduce a predictable and meandering mystery while speeding through its more interesting subplots. Still, there is fun to be had with the story of a group of people scrambling to cover their mistakes.
-
It’s perfectly okay but not much more, existing in a lukewarm middle state that’s potentially intriguing enough to press play on the next episode but not so gripping that you’ll find yourself trading theories around the water cooler or frantically looking for Easter eggs on Reddit.
-
Feels derivative and shallow.
-
The show they’re on is the TV equivalent of baby’s breath: a filler flower, fluffy and inoffensive but ultimately forgettable.
-
Other than a couple of likable performances, “GPGS” misses the mark in both categories [vibrant personalities and sharp plotting], digging in for too long on dull plot arcs for forgettable characters. It’s not a disaster, but it won’t stand out enough in the TV garden.
