Critics' reviews

"[2nd Season Review]: [It] is a frustratingly unnecessary mess (...) Unfortunately, the season's execution is frequently dismal."

Daniel Fienberg: The Hollywood Reporter
"[2nd Season Review]: It’s still captivating viewing (...) The show doesn’t offer solutions, but it does offer empathy. And sometimes, that’s exactly what’s needed."

Liz Shannon Miller: IndieWire
"[2nd Season Review]: [It] is even more insufferable in Season 2 (...) A tawdry, unnecessary exercise (...) There are zero reasons to put yourself through it (…) Rating: ★ (out of 4)"

Kelly Lawler: USA Today
"[2nd Season Review]: The show has sacrificed the momentum associated with season one's structure (...) The flashbacks work notably better than the present-day material"

Brian Lowry: CNN
"[2nd Season Review]: A satisfying, self-aware season 2 (...) The writers accurately capture the center-of-my-own-universe angst of the teen mind"

Kristen Baldwin: Entertainment Weekly
"[2nd Season Review]: The strengths (...) remain the same, while the weaknesses (...) have failed to resolve themselves (...) Minnette is a marvel"

Kevin O'Keefe: Variety
"'13 Reasons Why' is undoubtedly sincere, but it’s also, in many important ways, creatively successful"
