    It’s a treat to see all the characters get so fully fleshed out, further aided by a talented ensemble settled well into their roles by now. ... Never Have I Ever offers a rambunctious good time in a sea of bad-to-average Netflix originals. The show is going to end with its upcoming fourth season (set up perfectly by the end of this third one), but its legacy is already cemented as one of the streamer’s most entertaining and heartfelt offerings to date.

    Overall, Season 3 of Never Have I Ever does a fantastic job of portraying the ups and downs of a year in the life of a teenage girl. It also sets up new love triangles/interests/struggles for the fourth and final season, and a few surprises for some of our beloved characters.

    Never Have I Ever has established a pattern of starting a season far funnier than it winds up, and the flow this time feels particularly immaculate, with a clearer command of tone that allows the silly and the sad to sit side-by-side.

    It’s a sweet return to the world of Devi Vishwakumar. ... [Maitreyi Ramakrishnan] delivers the script’s jokes with perfect timing, and she plays the dramatic moments with an appealing understatement.

    The show continues to be a realistic and empathetic portrayal of what being a teenager looks like.

    For better or worse, Never Have I Ever's new season offers more of the same as its last two outings. It's not a surprising show, but rather a comfortingly consistent one. It remains smart and funny, with a killer cast.

Thanks to the light, funny and sometimes heartbreaking but always great writing. Full Review »

    I mean, at this point, Devi's charm is keeping the show alive, but with a third love interest, Never Have I ever has turned quite formulaic and basic.
