For as long as they can recall, Grace and Frankie have been rivals. Their one-upmanship comes crashing to a halt, however, when they learn that their husbands have fallen in love with each other and want to get married. As everything around the ladies is coming apart, the only thing they can really rely on is each other. This Netflix original re-teams Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin ("9 to 5") as Grace and Frankie, respectively, bringing their chemistry to the small screen. It's a casting reunion on a grand scale, as Tomlin is reunited with her co-star from "The West Wing," Martin Sheen, who plays Grace's husband, Robert. And Fonda is back with Sam Waterston, her co-star from "The Newsroom," who plays Frankie's husband, Sol.

Ali Barthwell New York Magazine/Vulture A wonderful ride. Rated: 4/5 Jan 23, 2019 Full Review Liz Shannon Miller IndieWire Grace and Frankie has its flaws, but it remains unlike anything else on television. It knows there are limits and ends to everything, and it's making the most of the time it has. Rated: B+ May 10, 2016 Full Review Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya AV Club Grace And Frankie really thrives when it comes to emotional, character-driven storytelling. Rated: A- May 9, 2016 Full Review Alicia Eler The Daily Dot It's both heartwarming and obnoxious to see two women who are in their late '60s/early '70s form an organic bond. Jan 23, 2019 Full Review Roger Catlin rogercatlin.com It's strangely fascinating, but almost never funny. May 6, 2016 Full Review Mitchel Broussard We Got This Covered Still slow-moving and unsurprising, Grace and Frankie's writing and humor ages better in a second season that feels more like a fully realized - and deeper-cutting - dramedy than its initial debut. Rated: 7/10 May 6, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews

Nestor G It starts to improve a lot in every episode. I love Brianna attitude Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/02/23 Full Review Audience Member I love it you must watch it I have watched this season over and over and can't get enough. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Finding its feet, funny and well written! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member This season was definitely an improvement on the last one and I'm so happy they are focusing more on the leading ladies and their relationship with each other. Sometimes a bit scattered in its focus but most of the problems I had with the show were gone by the 8th or 9th episode and I'm ready for the wild and fun ride I'm sure to be the next season. Some very funny moments like the tobasco throwing, the blood from the palm oil, and a lot more. 3.5/5 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Season 2 remains to be 100% entertaining just like season 1! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member This show so far has became my favorite Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
