"Not perfect but highly watchable..."

—

Variety

"n entertaining half-hour comedy that feels far more mature than most rookies out there."

—

Hollywood Reporter

"Immensely quotable lines peppered with pop culture and literary references..."

—

A.V. Club

"Might have been better off as a feature-length rom-com."

—

Vulture

"Like its protagonist, the ideas behind Younger have been around the block a few times. But it doesn't show its age at all."

—

Time Magazine

"Foster is sweet, wistful, conflicted, exhilarated and exhilarating..."

—

Los Angeles Times

"The gimmick wears thin fairly quickly, but Foster is such a charmer, she practically wills you to invest in the premise."

—

USA Today

"The series surely delivers, as the incomparable Foster is wont to do."

—

Entertainment Weekly

"An amusing new TV Land comedy about recapturing lost youth."

—

The New York Times

"Younger feels like it belongs on a different network. And that's probably a great thing for TV Land."

—

Paste

"At 56, Star ... may no longer be able to claim to the wunderkind tag (damn that ageism), but he retains his feel for the zeitgeist, and an uncanny ability to wed hi-gloss fantasy to real-world concerns."
