Season 1 Review:
The performances are first-rate, Ms. Bruccoleri above all, though Ms. Varma is wonderful. So is Ms. Jones, even though Mrs. Bennet is a shrewish plague upon her most introverted daughter. It is a credit to principal writer Sarah Quintrell that the peculiarities of the characters in “Pride and Prejudice” become more acute as they age.

Season 1 Review:
It’s incredibly tough to inject freshness into stories so frequently retold. But The Other Bennet Sister provides the ideal hit, combining all the comfort-watching pleasure of a beloved classic with the anticipation of following a previously little-known character on a brand new journey of self-discovery.

Season 1 Review:
Matters improve for both Mary and the viewer when she is sent away to be a governess and is allowed to develop some character and interests. Until then, The Other Bennet Sister feels too slight a thing even for the pre-watershed Sunday evening slot it is designed for (insofar as time slots mean anything to us in these crazy digital streaming days). But the growing charm and heft – not to mention the lovely central performance from Bruccoleri – make it one worth sticking with.
