    Kaling and Fisher have a robust grasp of what works, as well as which of their actors to lean on. But the duo are also too reluctant to jettison the components that no longer serve a purpose. The result is a follow-up season that, despite its greater narrative streamlining, feels crowded with characters and conflicts that make this otherwise sweetly horny, hijinks-fueled series feel bloated and weighed down.

    Never Have I Ever, now in its sophomore season, struggles with the same sort of identity crisis of its protagonist. It tries so hard to win over particularly white viewers who might say they don't identify with the main characters, but in doing so it sometimes dilutes what makes its heroine so great.

    An ok reissue of season one going so much as still not resolving Devi's love life. No growth has happened and people seem to always tolerateAn ok reissue of season one going so much as still not resolving Devi's love life. No growth has happened and people seem to always tolerate her toxic and inconsistent behaviour. It's not memorable in the slightest and feels difficult to commit to. With that said it's still entertaining to watch casually while u do something else like write this review.… Full Review »
