United States	Alan Sepinwall Rolling Stone	"The 'Sex and the City' formula pays dividends in this sweet, smart comedy (...) [It has] the kind of energy that can spark when old friends hang out together (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Caroline Framke Variety	"[A] smart, vibrant update of NYC relationship dramedies (...) [It] proved too good and fitting to resist"	POS
United States	Kellie Carter Jackson The New York Times	"[It] doesn’t assert a social justice agenda; instead, what it offers is pure pleasure (...) Many of these shows are gifts in their own right, illuminating essential aspects of Black women’s experiences"	POS
United States	Inkoo Kang The Hollywood Reporter	"Davenport and showrunner Yvette Lee Bowser lean less on archetypes than on thorny relationships to flesh out their foursome (...) Fizzy yet substantial"	POS
United States	Aramide Tinubu AV Club	"For much of its eight-episode first season, 'Run The World' is refreshing (...) [There are] moments when the series feels grounded in real life"	POS
