Check out the top reviews so far:

“When Young Rock stops long enough to focus on any arc, the show gets very well done.” – Allison Shoemaker, RogerEbert.com

“Sadly, it’s also rare to see so many people of color on a TV show and ‘Young Rock’ benefits from the carefully chosen group, filled with distinct and vibrant personalities.” – Ben Travers, indieWire

“When ‘Young Rock’ returns to the past, the show gets a lot more fun – thanks to the unusual creation of Johnson, who is somehow still identifiable, in addition to his cast filled with instantly likable actors. – Jen Chaney, New York Magazine / Vautour

“Noisy as his aspirations may be, three episodes of ‘Young Rock’ have left no clue of who Johnson is – just what he wants. Maybe it can be your vote someday, but right now it’s your attention, and it can be hard to feel it deserves it ”. – Daniel D’Addario, Variety

Enjoy watching:

“’Young Rock’ isn’t very funny at first, but it seems like the laughs get bigger as we get to know the characters. – Alan Sepinwall, Rolling Stone

“[Stacey] Leilua is quite magnetic to watch here, and while everyone at Young Rock is perfectly chosen, her role, to say the least, is the most compelling surprise. – Bob Strauss, Chronicle of San Francisco
