Season 1 Reviews
indieWire
Kristen Lopez
"Selena: The Series" ends up feeling like a Cliff's Notes take on Selena y los Dinos, the band, and not the woman at the center of it.
TIME Magazine
Judy Berman
[W]hile [Serratos] mere competence can't save the show, even a Lopez-level performer would likely struggle to salvage such stiff dialogue, aimless plotting, flat characters and blah direction.
Common Sense Media
Joyce Slaton
Tejano star rises in mostly family-friendly series.
BuzzFeed News
Alessa Dominguez
The show savvily depicts the clueless white stylists and photographers of major label EMI trying to sell her as an exotic "world" artist.
Black Nerd Problems
Khadjiah Johnson
I will admit, this is not necessarily "Selena" but rather "The Quintanillas" which is a beautiful story and is definitely part of who she is, but it feels separate from what viewers might be expecting.
Chicago Reader
Marissa De La Cerda
Part one of Selena: The Series attempts to capture Selena's artistry, but fails to bring full nuance in all areas of production.
The Ringer
Monica Castillo
Selena's greatness is almost always evident, but The Series posits that the personal, even mundane affects of her life were just as crucial in composing her persona.
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
The show carries the overly manicured feel of a licensed product. As a consequence, the series is both earnest and dramatically flat.
Washington Post
Bethonie Butler
The show's exploration of identity becomes more poignant when imagined in Selena's own words.
Bitch Media
Emilly Prado
When only one side of the story is given the greenlight, the other sides risk being forgotten... it is ultimately a disservice to Selena and to her fans, who want to better understand the late singer's humanity beyond a calculated public image.
Perri Nemiroff (YouTube)
Perri Nemiroff
Riddled with weak dialogue and low production value, but eventually, the connection to the ensemble does click. The show needs work in front of and behind the lens, but there's enough good there to up the anticipation for Part 2.
Hollywood Reporter
Inkoo Kang
Selena: The Series could've been a fitting tribute to a Mexican American trailblazer with still too few successors. But it never gets at what made her such a star.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Kathryn VanArendonk
So it's really a shame that the new Netflix series about Selena's life is so remarkably uninterested in any of that. Nor is Selena interested in any of the things that might make a series about its subject compelling viewing.
Los Angeles Times
Lorraine Ali
Selena could sing. But she also had a voice. Too bad she's not given one here.
Double Toasted
Korey Coleman
Maybe they'll make a better season next time?
Variety
Kiko Martinez
The care and compassion that has been injected into the first half of this biographical, two-part TV series is evident from the very start and never lets up during the initial nine episodes.
AV Club
Kayla Sutton
Selena: The Series contains a sense of uncomfortable voyeurism, a feeling of déjà vu-things that have been seen and experienced before, but now there is an air of repeated intrusion.
Double Toasted
Martin Thomas
The stakes are so low and there's so little meat...but what I got, I enjoyed, just not enough to stick with it.
RogerEbert.com
Cristina Escobar
In the end, Selena: The Series pulls enough poignancy from Selena's legend ... and the creators counteract the looming tragedy with silly, earnest, and heartfelt storytelling that gets you from one cumbia to the next.
NME (New Musical Express)
Rhian Daly
Part one of Netflix's drama about the Queen of Tejano music does little to add to the star's legacy.
