Variety

Brian Lowry

Season 1 Review: It's too early to declare victory just yet, of course, but Tower Prep appears to have the right lesson plan for the task at hand. And based simply on the needs of a network still getting its feet wet in a new genre, the show passes its first test with flying colors. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The first episode of Tower Prep ends on an intriguing note and the show offers reason for young viewers to come back for more, which is exactly what a pilot episode should do. Read full review

Season 1 Review: This is a modest production that nevertheless generates a good bit of energy and benefits from sympathetic casting, decent dialogue and keeping things ambiguous.

I’ve been rewatching Tower Prep for the first time since it aired in 2010 and I’m just realizing how good it was. It was funny, but also had cool mysteries and intrigue. It’s too bad @Paul_Dini never got to finish the story.

I blame the cartoon elitists who hated it.
