United States	Raven Brunner Decider	"[2nd Season Review]: it will keep viewers on their toes in more ways than one"	POS
United States	Ricky Valero Ready Steady Cut	"[2nd Season Review]: The second season of 'Life & Beth' ups the ante with strong writing and outstanding performances from Amy Schumer and Michael Cera (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Alan Sepinwall Rolling Stone	"[2nd Season Review]: Second season of Schumer's Hulu series doubles down on the guest stars — and levels up on the humor and pathos in a big way"	POS
United States	Vikram Murthi The Daily Beast	"[2nd Season Review]: Sometimes the tonal shifts complement each other, or at least aren’t conspicuous. Other times, it feels like two different shows stitched together.	NEU
United States	Manuel Betancourt AV Club	"[2nd Season Review]: If it doesn’t quite land every one of its many well-intentioned and often very funny setups, it at least hits a welcome note about how difficult it remains to live in this world and connect with one another"	NEU
United States	Marya E. Gates The Playlist	"[1st Season Review]: Mining your life for art can be a rich exercise, but unfortunately with 'Life & Beth,' Schumer tries to do too much, too fast (...) Despite its unfocused format, it is compulsively watchable"	POS
United States	Angie Han The Hollywood Reporter	"[1st Season Review]: It’s neither as hilarious nor as moving as it seems like it could be, and the tonal shifts between 'dram' and 'edy' can be jarring (...) Nevertheless, it’s intriguing for the rawness that Schumer brings to the table"	NEU
United States	Amanda Whiting IndieWire	"[1st Season Review]: We’ve seen Schumer in the throes of an early onset midlife crisis before (...) but never with this much raw sincerity (...) [It] bends genres to suggest a rich and complicated vision of what it means to be a grown-up"	POS
United States	Caroline Framke Variety	"[1st Season Review]: It’s frustrating that it takes until this sixth episode for some of the show’s puzzle pieces to find each other, but when they do, they make up a picture that’s more subtly moving than initially meets the eye."	NEU
United States	Alan Sepinwall Rolling Stone	"[1st Season Review]: Life & Beth is an interesting and ultimately sweet and likable tale, and a solid soft-relaunch of sorts for Schumer herself (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Lauren Sarner New York Post	"[1st Season Review]: The show tries to be too many things at once (...) and because it often abruptly shifts in tone from melancholy to wacky, not all of them land."	NEU
United States	Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe	"[1st Season Review]: 'Life & Beth' brings out the best in Amy Schumer (...) An impressive and enjoyable series"	POS
United States	Tim Lowery AV Club	"[1st Season Review]: It’s a setup that works really well with Schumer’s strengths as a comedic actor, allowing us to relate to each befuddled look, furtive, disgusted glance, fake laugh and awkward gesture."	POS
