Season 1 Review:
Love on the Spectrum takes these adults well past their comfort zones, testing their emotions and their interpersonal skills in dating situations that I found myself relating to way more than I expected. ... It’s not as moody or emotionally wrought as scripted shows like Netflix’s Atypical. But its quest is one that feels so relevant right now.

Season 1 Review:
It’s easy to fall for it, even if you find some of its unscripted storytelling techniques less than trustworthy. The subjects’ search for love and romantic companionship, as they navigate dating experiences that, for some, are their very first, don’t need much editorial flourish. The people on screen are so naturally charismatic and compelling.

Season 1 Review:
More than anything, Love on the Spectrum exhibits empathy toward the featured players without condescending toward them, and quickly bridges any cultural barriers in a broadly universal manner. In the often-cynical world of TV dating, that combination provokes pretty strong feelings of like at first sight.

This show is so absolutely sweet, you really have no good reason NOT to watch it.

Watched both seasons so far and enjoyed them very much. Unfortunately, I think it becomes clear in the second season that the cameras influence the participants and their actions onscreen. It starts to feel more like a conventional reality show and a little exploitative.
