    Whether thanks to the absence of those phones or not, there’s no missing the ebullience that courses through this splendidly realized drama of ambition, of workplace ties that bind--that brings it roaring spectacularly to life.

    If Sweetbitter were longer, I suspect it would lose much of its charm, but six 30-minute episodes is a welcome antidote to the number of television dramas with bloated episode runtimes. Rather than overstay its welcome, it remains fun and breezy.

    Sweetbitter has some sensory pleasures, a good cast and better wine (or so we're told). Otherwise occasionally pretentious and ultimately superficial.

    Occasionally laughable moments but poor character developments, Sweetbitter surely has the potential to expand further in its second season hopefully.

    I just finished watching the first five episodes and I have to adamantly disagree with the critics review. There are about 6 characters and II just finished watching the first five episodes and I have to adamantly disagree with the critics review. There are about 6 characters and I loved them all. A collection of New York individuals who come together in their work environment to become a family. A most enjoyable half hour show! Full Review »
