	Author	Review
United States	Liz Kocan Decider	"[2nd Season Review]: Firefly Lane can be soapy and sappy, but it’s a fun ride full of humor and high stakes relationship drama"	POS
United States	Christina Izzo AV Club	"[2nd Season Review]: It seems as though 'Firefly Lane' hasn't learned much over the years (...) All of the stuff that was wrong with season one is still wrong with it this time down the road"	NEG
United States	Kristen Lopez IndieWire	"[2nd Season Review]: Despite it all, we’ll miss this duo"	POS
United States	Caroline Siede AV Club	"It’s the sort of cheap-looking, unevenly written and acted series that’s easy to rag on (...) [But it] offers an exploration of women’s interior lives that still feels relatively rare in the TV landscape"	NEU
United States	Caroline Framke Variety	"'Firefly Lane' loses out on much of its potential emotional resonance by getting lost in its own narrative trickery."	NEG
United States	Meghan O'Keefe Decider	"For all its obvious turns and emotionally manipulative choices, you’ll be hard pressed to stop watching. The performances of the four actresses playing Tully and Kate are so spectacular you’ll be sucked in."	POS
United States	Kristen Baldwin Entertainment Weekly	"'Firefly Lane' would be entirely forgettable without Heigl and Chalke — which is both a compliment and a disappointment."	NEU
United States	Amy Amatangelo Paste Magazine	"The show truly fumbles when it tries to take on bigger issues (...) The other problem is the lack of investment I had in the show’s central love triangle"	NEG
United States	Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times	"Heigl and Chalke are terrific together (...) They’re three-dimensional characters in a series where many of the supporting figures (...) are relatively thinly drawn and not particularly compelling (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"	NEU
United States	Inkoo Kang The Hollywood Reporter	"Overloaded with saccharin and cheese (...) It’s a rich premise squandered by awkward casting, tearjerking storylines and knee-high ambitions."	NEG
United States	Candice Frederick TV Guide	"10 impossibly fast, nearly one-hour episodes fly by without them saying anything profound (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Kristen Lopez IndieWire	"Chalke and Heigl make the series far more entertaining than it has any right to be."	NEU
