	Author	Review
United States	Daniel D'Addario Variety	"This is simultaneously a creative response to the trauma of the past year and not quite transformative enough to possibly be recommended on grounds other than masochistic completism"	NEU
United States	Inkoo Kang The Hollywood Reporter	"Like pretty much all COVID-centric series thus far, 'Social Distance' suggests that we’re still too close to the subject matter to say anything meaningful about it"	NEG
United States	James Poniewozik The New York Times	"Sharp, provocative and cathartic, and more often than not, it’s rooted in pain."	POS
United States	Joyce Chen Paste Magazine	"[It] is a pretty jarring experience. Attempting to dramatize what’s already naturally dramatic can feel burdensome and heavy"	NEG
United States	Joel Keller Decider	"Since 'Social Distance' is an anthology, you can pick and choose which episodes you want to watch. That’s good because, like most anthologies, things are hit-and-miss."	NEU
United States	Melissa Camacho Common Sense Media	"There are some fun, laugh-out-loud moments, as well as scenes that underscore the overwhelming feelings of desperation and loneliness when you aren’t free to spend time with the people you want to be with"	POS
United States	Judy Berman Time	"More people may give 'Social Distance' a shot (...) That doesn’t mean the sketchy vignettes that make up this scattered anthology seem especially likely to linger in the restless 2020 zeitgeist."	NEG
United States	Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut	"Thanks to the rigorous effort taken in ensuring authenticity, the artifice is much more noticeable than it is in a more traditionally dramatic show (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Greg Wheeler The Review Geek	"I can’t help but feel that those interested in real-life stories about coping through Corona will just load up YouTube and watch their favourite Vlogger instead."	NEG
