Feb 26, 2020Despite the lack of originality, personality and a good script. The series manages to sustain itself only with its good humor and its setting "80s"

May 17, 2020I thought this was a decent show. I don't think it merges the two sides of this world very well. It feels more focused on the normal teen drama side than the supernatural side. But it's cute and short enough that it doesn't feel like a huge waste of time. I'm willing continue on with the show to see where it takes us in Season 2.

Dec 24, 2020A show that showed a lot of potential early on but faded late. Still would of loved to of seen a second season as it had developed a solid base from which to build.

While the ‘80s-esque teen comedy outer shell is likely enough to attract plenty of casual viewers, what will keep people invested is how “I’m Not Okay With This” offers a poignant emotional heart and soul that isn’t found in most attempts at regurgitating the supernatural/coming of age formula.

“Okay” suffers from the same bloat as far too many streaming shows; its 140 minutes contain at most 90 minutes worth of material. Which is too bad because Lillis is an oddly arresting actress and the use of super-powers as a metaphor for teen angst and raging hormones is at least time-tested.

Being a teenager is pretty cliched, so it becomes more about the character work within that construct on a show like this one. “I Am Not Okay with This” works so well because of how deftly the creators and cast balance those character beats with a breakneck plot that unfolds in only about 140 minutes.
