Season 1 Reviews
Pajiba
Allyson Johnson
School Spirits has no soul or heart, and the tone is a mishmash of Degrassi and an equestrian show you've never heard of that your grandmother watches. It's decent background noise, but it's immediately forgettable.
Black Girl Nerds
Cassondra Feltus
Cool concept but falls short when it comes to an intriguing mystery, likable characters, and fully fleshed out supernatural elements. The series struggles to build and maintain tension other than ending episodes on cliffhangers.
Variety
Daniel D'Addario
Without losing sight of the sorrow of Maddie's story, School Spirits manages to be surprisingly sparky and fun -- proof positive that there are new stories to tell about the institution no one would ever want to be stuck in for their entire afterlife.
The Hollywood Reporter
Daniel Fienberg
Sometimes the familiar trappings of the high-school genre can open the door for a show to do wilder and more inventive things than more allegedly mature shows. School Spirits, unfortunately, takes no such liberties.
But Why Tho? A Geek Community
Kate Sánchez
School Spirits is a stellar YA thriller-comedy-whodunnit. While I don't know exactly where to put it in terms of genre, it has a lot of heart that propels the story to be more than just a gimmick.
The Spool
Tim Stevens
Like living teens, they roil with unrealized dreams, the desire to get the hell (no pun intended) out of dodge, and to embrace the comfort of the familiar all at once.
Collider
Rae Torres
School Spirits will reel you in with its overarching mystery, but it will keep you hooked with its heart.
Paste Magazine
Anna Govert
It's addictive, it's funny, it's charming, and it's heartwarming, all the elements that make a teen drama worth watching.
Common Sense Media
Stephanie Morgan
With a cast of relatable and talented young actors, School Spirits manages to balance dark humor, teenage angst, and supernatural elements to create a murder mystery that will hold viewers' attention throughout its eight episodes.
Decider
Joel Keller
We were pleasantly surprised by how mature of a show School Spirits was, not just because of List's steady lead performance, but because it doesn't delve in the current cliches that drag down most high-school dramas.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
School Spirits, which recalls The Lovely Bones, albeit with a far less dreadful tone, is entertaining and Ms. List is magnetic.
The Mary Sue
Julia Glassman
School Spirits may owe a big debt to the genres it pulls from, but the strength of its storytelling and the vividness of Maddie's world carry the show.
Pop Culture Planet
Kristen Maldonado
While the show can be uneven at times, things really pick up in the finale and when they explore more of the lore of the ghosts. They go to some unexpected places that will definitely have you hooked by the end.
TV Fanatic
Paul Dailly
The first two episodes were fine, but the pace might be too slow to become fully invested in this universe.
Cultured Vultures
Joey Rambles
Engrossing from start to finish, School Spirits proves the teen drama genre still has a lot of stamina left in it thanks to its stellar writing and cast, with a particularly star-making performance from Peyton List.
