I'm not sure if this is true for others, but the first review that comes up for me describes the show as unrealistic and promoting sleeping around, lying, and other debauchery- the main complaints I've seen about this show seem to be that it promotes sex, lying, sleeping around etc. or is ageist and sexist. What these reviewers seem to believe is that the show is either a guide to life that must teach morals directly, or that it is apparently not a tongue-in- cheek comedy using stereotypes to make social commentary in a humorous way. It is not a how-to guide on being a woman in today's world, and since it isn't a children's show, I don't see why anyone would be concerned that the characters are not all traditionally moral, conservative individuals. I, personally, prefer characters that make mistakes, grow, learn, and change, and have diverse viewpoints. This show has that, and for what it's worth, the main protagonist is neither 'slutty' nor wildly amoral and evil, but is instead rather 'normal' and sympathetic.

I would say that the show is witty, humorous, and at times thought- provoking. The characters are, in fact, more complex than the stereotypes they portray, and anything seemingly sexist or ageist is done deliberately and self-deprecatingly. Yes, it IS unrealistic that a woman over 40 would have to pretend to be in her 20s to get a job. That's the point. Would anyone really go into watching a show with the premise that a 40 year old divorcée is successfully passing as a 25 year old college grad in order to get a job and expect realism?

The show takes little kernels of reality and makes them more absurd, extreme, and unrealistic in order to present a charming, funny show that still provides some insight into social perceptions.

Also note that I managed to watch and enjoy the entire season without feeling the need to sleep around, lie pathologically, or mock anyone over the age of 40.

I started this show once a few years ago and didn't make it very far and now, I have no idea why. I started watching it again and I immediately got hooked. As soon as you get your character development, it's hard to turn off the TV. It's heartfelt, it's funny with a few laughs out loud moments. Of course, Sutton kills this role, but my favorite character has to be Miriam Shor's character. She's rough around the edges but hilarious and even kind at unexpected moments. Regardless, I get to hang with my old Saturday morning pal, Hillary Duff while enjoying heart throb boys and a metric crap ton of girl power.

Me and my mom loved this series from start throughout season 6, but after finishing season 7 I had to lower my rating from a solid 10 to a disappointing 9.. Very good series overall, but they could've ended it with season 6.

This show is fun and touches on the challenges of getting older while reminding us to stay young at heart. The main character is a women going through a mid life crisis who is forced to reinvent herself after going thru a divorce to a world that sees her as being washed up, out of touch, and unattractive to the job market and dating scene. Instead of accepting peoples'stereotypes she does a makeover of her life and re brands herself as a energetic highly skilled 26 year old. Too many people as they get older become plagued with responsibility and this show reminds people to get out and live life. We all have a lot of life left to live. We are only as old as we let ourselves be. This show reminds us to live life to the fullest. We cannot let stereotypes tell us what we can and cannot do. Love this show as it is well written and gives people the confidence to make changes and take chances. Highly recommended feel good show.

I stumbled across this show just looking for something new to watch. I've been binge watching ever since. I'm surprised how much I like it and really enjoying it!!

Generally, the previews interested me. Contemporary, fun, includes the older and younger generation? Very cool! Being a woman, I can see how this would appeal to my gender, but anyone can enjoy it really. I couldn't stop watching after the first episode. It's a bit liberal for my taste, I haven't seen other shows besides Hot in Cleveland on TV Land, but even with the "adult-situations" it's easy to watch, and there's a charm to it that sets it apart from new shows these days. Great actors and actresses for the main roles, Hilary Duff was what drew me in in the first place, but a good show wouldn't be good without who's in it! Just watch, be free, and enjoy it!

Oh come on get a life nay sayers! Show is adorable and shot for 25-60 year old male or females. Very cute premise and spot on casting. If you don't like chick flicks or rom-coms this is not for you!! Sutton Foster is truly a 40 year old who looks 26 & is smoking hot! She pulls off the part perfectly and kicks in enough spice to definitely heat this up a remind you just how sexy a 40 year old can be. Debi Mazar is the perfect sidekick & Hillary Duff kicks in just the right amount of naiveté to her role. I think this show will really start to gel as everyone grows into their rolls. It should have been written as an hour show. Just as the episode starts to hit stride, poof, see ya next week.

UPDATE; 3 Shows & "Rockin" What a fun show! It is gelling & non stop FUN! UPDATE #2 5 SEASON I sure love this show just wish the would they would make it an hour show. OR join the real world & release all so we can binge, lol.

Tell your friends, spread the word. They deserve to be entertained by a well written & witty comedy!

I loved this series. 79 and it got me in from the very beginning and didn't let me go to the end of series 6. The biggest binge I have ever been on. Loved it. I WANT MORE.

While I'd heard of this series years ago, when it was first beginning, I didn't start watching it until this year! However, from the time I watched the first episode, I was hooked. It's very easy to binge watch and therefore get through many episodes in a short time. I'm currently on Season 5, and am sad that there are only 2 more seasons after this one.

"Younger" is endlessly entertaining and fun! There hasn't (so far) been an episode I didn't like. The cast is top-notch, and all are fantastic actors. Sutton Foster is amazing and totally believable as the protagonist, Liza!

I only give this show 9 stars instead of 10 because I hate the fact that it's coming to an end.🙃

I've just discovered this show on NowTV and can't believe I hadn't heard of it. It's so good. It's rare to have a show where they are all really likeable characters - it makes it very easy watching and I love that it's set in New York, I want to live it. I can't believe Season 7 will be the last season when I've only just found it. I love how many strong female characters are in the show and a big shout out to Miriam Shor, Hilary Duff and Debi Mazar who all play excellent supporting characters, each would deserve their own spin off.

I enjoyed every episode and especially the way they got better up to the final one. The writing and directing was very well done, offering so many clever things packed into each episode, unfolding the romantic fantasies in so many fun twists and turns, and developing the characters in excellent ways. Let it be the excellent fantasy it is and enjoy the ride.

I was hooked since episode one. Binge watched it in 3 days! I guess that explains everything! ONE tiny thing.... Whoever is responsible for the makeup needs to get fired (makeup not matching the actors skincolor and YES it's obvious) #sorry. It's 2018. We are watching you!

I absolutely adore this show and the characters. I love Hilary Duff and Nico Tortorella. Fun show.

It's a fantasy that addresses relevant social issues. I'm Gen X and love the inter-generational discussions. Could use more ethnic diversity, but great with LGBTQ portrayals.

Genuinely great light tv watching... though not so light you can set and forget.... binged my through first few seasons. Loved the characters, fun & witty dialogue, and the costumes.... what fun fashion. Reminds me of Sex and the City, just less edge (though not far behind).

This is one of the best series I have watched so far great settings,great actors/actresses with nice acting skills I can't wait to watch the concluding season I really hope Liza ends up with Josh

I absolutely love this show! It's cute and witty and I can't wait to see where it goes next.

First of all, I'll start by saying that I'm 42, so I could definitely relate to many of the things that Liza is going through. I just was introduced to Younger a couple of weeks ago and have totally binged on the first 3 seasons. I absolutely LOVE it and just want it to keep going. Highly recommend!!!

This clever dramedy never dulls out at any point in five season and season five ended on really awesome emotional note. This show is full of energy and modernistic environment so much so that i can't put it down. Can't wait for season 6.

Sutton Foster is hysterical! Her deadpan one liners are laugh out loud funny. Loved her in Bun Heads as well. Sure the premise is a bit silly, but all the characters are enjoyable. Plenty of eye candy too. They seem to fall into the sack a lot, and drink a lot, but immediate satisfaction seems to be the hallmark of the generation being portrayed. Much better than all the stupid mind numbing reality shows like 90 Day Fiancé and Duck Dynasty! Can't wait for Season 4&5!

Stumbled upon this show and mow I'm addicted...despite being old enough to be their mom/grandma. The cast is superb and they have such natural chemistry together...one can tell they are friends off camera too.
