Diane Werts Newsday There's fun in the tube zingers and dizzy diva dialogue. But it all needs to add up to more than what's indicated by the lightweight pilot episode. Sep 6, 2019 Full Review Austin Smith New York Post There's nothing particularly gross about Grosse Pointe, but it is pointless. Sep 6, 2019 Full Review Tom Shales Washington Post To ask of satires that they be funnier than whatever they satirize hardly seems extreme. Grosse Pointe fails at even this banal, basal minimum. Sep 6, 2019 Full Review Will Harris Bullz-Eye.com There's nothing more disheartening than watching the premiere of an intelligently written show, laughing constantly throughout, and, as the closing credits roll, knowing full well that it's never, ever going to be a hit. Rated: 4/5 Sep 6, 2019 Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Grosse Pointe is wicked fun. Sep 6, 2019 Full Review Scott D. Pierce Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Grosse Pointe is wryly funny in spots, but the odds of it being able to extend its one-joke format very far are negligible.
