The young cast is engaging and the dialog seems natural with angst that seems less weaponized than say, "Euphoria".

There's so much going on in Genera+ion, and episodes can fly by in a disorienting flurry of loud colors and pop music, but it knows what it is and what it wants to say.

Genera+ion displays a few moments of world- weary teens that seem clichéd, but more often than not the show excels in avoiding the expected in favor of subtlety even with its most outwardly demonstrative character, Chester.

Watching it, I felt about as old as the dinosaurs... But even as a relic from the Late Cretaceous period, of this I'm sure: kids these days are, most assuredly, alright.
March 11, 2021
Genera+ion is enamored with the superficial things that make these characters feel contemporary, without showing much interest in what makes them distinctive just as people.
March 11, 2021
Genera+ion is a refreshing new teen drama that takes a different angle on the genre by switching the focus on who the show is about.
March 11, 2021
Generation is, hopefully, a step in the right direction for representation and ambition in teen shows. Unfortunately, that's not an excuse to treat characters with disingenuousness, nor is surface-level progress the recipe for a good watch.
March 11, 2021
The pilot is frenetic, trying to introduce too many people and plots at once. But once the series gets going, it finds a pleasant rhythm.
March 11, 2021
The difference between the borderline-unbearable writing that some characters receive and the sensitive storytelling that others are granted is stark.
March 11, 2021
Generation arrives at a moment when TV has no shortage of shows about, as Megan sarcastically describes it, "this secret life of teenagers' hoo-hah." It's lighter than some of its peers, but still self-conscious... Still, there's promise here.
March 10, 2021
Genera+ion is very impressed with itself, and wants us to share in that sentiment, to be wowed by its inelegant envelope pushing, even though the pushing has been done much better by other shows in just the last 18 months.
March 04, 2021
There are moments in Generation when you can feel the writers doing some hipper-than-thou flexing, but more often the show, created by Daniel Barnz and his 18-year-old daughter, Zelda, is an astute drama-comedy featuring well-drawn characters.
