Critic Reviews

Joel Keller

Oct 19, 2021

Queens is one of the best new fall network series because it’s smarter than it needs to be and leans hard into its frothy premise. Read full review

Queens‘ early promise lies in the magic of its leads. All four feel fully formed from the jump. ... Collectively, they share an easy chemistry bolstered by strong, specific dialogue. Read full review

The pilot episode of “Queens” is efficient, dramatic and intriguing without feeling overstuffed, which is a feat given its many intersecting plotlines. In that respect, too, the core acting foursome of “Queens” bring crucial skill and personality. Read full review
