Part 1 Reviews
Common Sense Media
Joyce Slaton
Relatable teen dramedy centers on a solid female friendship.
TV Guide
Megan Vick
Yes, it's a show about cancer, but it's also about hope and friendship and living life to your fullest, no matter your circumstances.
indieWire
Hanh Nguyen
Overall, the show's charismatic and peppy ensemble is what makes these storylines work, especially because the show is incredibly silly, sometimes painfully.
New York Times
Mike Hale
As a comedy, Alexa & Katie is about average, or a little below, if graded against the cable shows it resembles. But it's a little more tough-minded than you might expect.
The Hollywood Reporter
Daniel Fienberg
Alexa & Katie is probably pitched at tweens and pre-tweens with high school dreams and their parents who don't mind leaving those kids with 13 episodes of unremarkable, uncontroversial, completely well-intentioned programming.
Decider
Meghan O'Keefe
Alexa & Katie is the kind of show they hardly make anymore: it's entertainment served up with a dash of hope.
The Daily Dot
Tess Cagle
The Disney Channel-like sitcom offers a heartwarming, comedic story about battling cancer, coming of age, and the power of teenage friendship.
