Even if you can't technically improve on perfection, it's damn impressive to see these folks try. Read full review

The stories are told with such intimacy, such empathy, and such attention to detail, that it transcends labels and generalities. It's the story of these specific people, exceptionally small, but also exceptionally told.... This was a terrific show last year, it's even better this year. Read full review

As was true in season one, the first thing to notice about Togetherness--in addition to its spectacularly talented cast--is the amount of sophisticated wit the writers manage to dredge from standard sitcom craziness, the exuberance they wring out of emotional pain and everyday sodden travail.

A small pleasure. [19/26 Feb 2016, p.110]

This season’s determination to be bleak and honest isn't as pleasurable. The series is very good at what it does, but I can’t help thinking that more Gonzaga, Peet and Gallagher--in upbeat story form--would go exceptionally well with less dire versions of the excellent Lynskey, Zissis and Duplass.

Zissis and Peet pluck the heartstrings as Alex and Tina do the dance of the modern rom-com, often with different partners, but it's Brett and Michelle whose struggles to connect make Togetherness a little too real to be funny. Read full review

Collider Allison Keene

Much of the new season’s happiness and levity is whimsical and spur-of-the-moment (and the moments of sojourn, reverie, and revelry are visually sumptuous). They are earned as much as the sadness is, though their time is so much more fleeting. What’s left is that most of the dark, awkward, painful, naval-gazing realness of the rest of the season fosters less of a sense of universal togetherness, and more of a desire to retreat away completely.

Drama, romance and comedy have been a staple of television lately. Standing out in this crowded field requires something exceptional and HBO's Togetherness delivers. It's a story of complications in relationships as much as social pressures that come with marriage, parenting, and friendship.Drama, romance and comedy have been a staple of television lately. Standing out in this crowded field requires something exceptional and HBO's Togetherness delivers. It's a story of complications in relationships as much as social pressures that come with marriage, parenting, and friendship. This show is directed towards a new age of adults and could almost be a family show. It's a sweet story that keeps one hooked and rooting for the characters.… Expand
