    There are weaknesses (even with Sally Phillips playing the editor, Queenie’s media workplace is too sketchily drawn), but this is nicely honed television not without bite.

    Brown does a decent job with what she’s given. But when her character’s name is the title, it’s around Queenie that everything revolves and with a weak central figure, that’s too much time is spent on her.

    Queenie feels like a dramedy dreamed up by half-arsed AI. The breakup, the queer pal who encourages her to date again, even the dreams of making it as a writer in the big city are painfully rote cliches. Because Queenie feels so imprecise, investing in any of these plotlines is difficult.
