What to Know

Critics Consensus

Every generation deserves its own sitcom of likable screwups, and Adults more or less delivers one for Gen-Z with its ensemble of funny and maddening strivers.

Dan Einav Financial Times While there’s something to be said for a show that doesn’t sanitise the griminess of flat-sharing twenty-somethings, Adults can often be wilfully vulgar. Rated: 2/5 Jun 4, 2025 Full Review Lisa Weidenfeld Boston Globe The setups are frantic — the show has a manic energy that it has trouble wrangling into effective payoffs. May 30, 2025 Full Review Karl Quinn The Age (Australia) ...[Adults] is hilarious, unhinged, and has plenty to say, for the adults and their elders alike. Rated: 4/5 May 29, 2025 Full Review John Stark Mac the Movie Guy Adults wants to grow up and into the kinds of shows it emulates, all while being born from the generation used to swiping right and hash tagging their feelings. Rated: 71/100 Jul 29, 2025 Full Review Alberto Carlos Espinof Yes, 'Adults' is quite funny, but I think its writing falls somewhat flat. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/5 Jul 5, 2025 Full Review Juan Pablo Russo EscribiendoCine ...the series presents itself as a generational comedy that flirts with satire, though it never quite decides whether its mission is to disturb, move, or simply make us laugh.

At first, I really didn’t like it, but after the first episode, it turned out to be a really good show. I love this show because it portrays the lives of different people who ultimately come together in the end. I just want to say thank you all!
