Antoine W. Mara Brock Akil is truly a joy—I'm a lifelong fan of her work, and Forever is no exception. The cast, the pacing, and the storytelling are all excellent. Every time Karen Pittman is on screen, I’m moved to tears. She brings such depth to her role as a protective (if slightly “cray cray”!) mom, and I absolutely love it. Justin’s dynamic with his family is another highlight—it feels real, warm, and layered. I’m already counting down the days until Season 2! 10/10 Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/26/25 Full Review alienfromvenus ¡ this show is horrible. completely horrible. i’ve never in my life seen such a corny, boring, cringe, irritating, show. i don’t care about the “oh but the black teen experience-“ honey this is nowhere near close. rich OR poor this is not what we do. and can we talk about the cousin scene between justin and that lightskin girl???? that was DISGUSTING. completely. DISGUSTING. like who wrote this show??? FIRE THEM IMMEDIATELY !!!!! never watching this again. this show literally has no deeper plot. it’s the same “make-up” “break-up” continuation storyline. the only eye catching thing about this show is the soundtrack. that’s completely it. a match made in hell. thank you.

Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/04/25 Full Review Erika M Slow, repetitive (breakup and make-up) and lacks depth. Not sure what the hype was about. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/01/25 Full Review latasha n Loooove it! Rarely do we get to see the depth of the teenage black experience. Two families with strong values & morals attempt to support their teens as they navigate a walk we all are familiar with-young love. Some scenes are monotonous with the "break up to make up" rhythm, but that's teenage love. It's the modern day "Love and Basketball" movie with all the drama that modern technology affords. Kudos to the all-star cast, directors and writers that brought depth to this story. A modern day MUST watch! Hope there is a season2. Bravo! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/31/25 Full Review Francis S The show is kinda slow and adds nothing to a story (book) with great potential. Nice it was shot in L.A., but the photography especially in Episode 1 is very lazy. Too much music is used to portrait the teenager's world and is there to mask poor character's development. (SPOILER) There is a video that seems to be a big problem for one of the character but other than shedding tears there is no action taken. Repetitive and dull. Won't watch past the first one.
