    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 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!

    The characters may be types, but what they do as back waiters, servers, bartenders and sous chefs is convincing.

    Tthis is an amuse bouche packaged as a full meal; a promise of a new coming-of-age adventure that, as seen on TV, feels all too ordinary.

    The contrast between the steamy, fast-paced controlled chaos of the kitchen, and the air of serenity that pervades the dining room rings even truer. Sweetbitter does a good job of illustrating how challenging it is to toggle between those two environments all night, every night, while trying to maintain sanity. Where it struggles is in its character development.
