	Media	Author	Review
		Inkoo Kang The Hollywood Reporter	"Unfortunately, creator Moisés Zamora squanders this opportunity to reintroduce Selena (...) to a new generation (...) [The] lack of tension pervades, and enervates, the season"
		Judy Berman Time	"Who was Selena? The new Netflix series about the singer doesn’t have a clue"
		Kiko Martinez Variety	"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."
		Meghan O'Keefe Decider	"It is fine, it is fun, but it also is a missed opportunity to go deeper into the soul of one of the most gorgeously iconic voices in music history."
		Lorraine Ali Los Angeles Times	"Selena could sing. But she also had a voice. Too bad she’s not given one here."
		Kayla Sutton AV Club	"Unfortunately, Selena: The Series follows in its predecessor’s footsteps too often to match the ground-breaking spirit of its subject."
		Kathryn VanArendonk Vulture	"[It lacks] stakes, tension, momentum, a purposeful tone, or any effort at all in developing Selena as a character."
		Brian Lowry CNN	"[It] should stir curiosity among her fans but which proves so light on substance as to make watching the initial nine-episode run a slog with few high notes"
		Daniel Hart Ready Steady Cut	"Simply put, this biological fictional account is desperately generic and weak (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 5)"
