	Media	Author	Review
		Charles Barfield The Playlist	"[2nd Season Review]: There are moments towards the end that show us, once again, why it was one of the best TV series of 2021. However, the journey to that point is exhausting and might prevent some viewers from even finishing the binge"
		Jack Seale The Guardian	"[2nd Season Review]: this fantasy drama pulls off a miracle (...) Its gripping storylines, violence and cute kids with animal features are a joy for all ages (...) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Ed Power Telegraph	"[2nd Season Review]: Netflix's family friendly dystopia is darker, but just as adorable (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Ross Bonaime Collider	"[2nd Season Review]: it attempts to up the stakes, but in the process, it often loses the charm and love that made this show great in the first place"
		Gissane Sophia CBR	"[2nd Season Review]: Grittier while upholding its wholesome charm"
		Samantha Nelson IGN	"[2nd Season Review]: The second season of 'Sweet Tooth' provides a charming post-apocalyptic tale about the need to accept change"
		Adam Lock Ready Steady Cut	"[2nd Season Review]: The world-building is superb, and the hybrid children are just downright adorable, but the show’s initial magic is somewhat lacking until the final third (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Karina Adelgaard Heaven of Horror	"[2nd Season Review]: It’s dark and yet hopeful (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Chris Vognar Rolling Stone	"[2nd Season Review]: 'Sweet Tooth' remains quite welcoming, the kind of thing you might watch with your adolescent. The series has a big heart, but it only occasionally veers into mawkish terrain"
		Alex Maidy JoBlo	"[2nd Season Review]: It isn’t quite summer yet, but 'Sweet Tooth‘s' second season has already become one of my favorite series of the year and proves that real magic can happen when you get the right cast, writers, and directors"
		Tauriq Moosa The Verge	"[2nd Season Review]: ['Sweet Tooth']'s second season frustrated me, even if it did eventually move me"
		Joel Keller Decider	"[2nd Season Review]: 'Sweet Tooth' continues to be an engaging and fun story, which is pretty impressive for a show about the human race being quickly wiped out"
		Ian Freer Empire	"[It] combines some of Mickle’s harder horror edges with moments of Spielbergian-style charm and wonder (...) a children’s fable fit for grown-ups (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Charles Barfield The Playlist	"A hopeful post-apocalyptic story a post-COVID world desperately needs. (...) it’s in the complexity of human emotions that allows “Sweet Tooth” to rise above being a saccharine, feel-good distraction"
		Huw Fullerton Radio Times	"The chemistry between Convery and Anozie keeps the story ticking along (...) It stops Sweet Tooth from being just another grim apocalypse drama, and turns it into something else (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		David Opie Digital Spy	"Even fans of the original comics might be surprised by just how euphoric this version of Sweet Tooth can be at times, but in a genre as crowded as this, that's no bad thing (...) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Alex Maidy JoBlo	"The result is a blend of The Walking Dead and Twelve Monkeys but through a Tim Burton-esque lens and quite possibly the show everyone will be talking about this summer."
		Brian Tallerico rogerebert.com	"It’s intense, riveting storytelling that recalls the spirit of Amblin (...) It would have been excellent television in any year, but "Sweet Tooth" strikes a different chord in 2021 than anyone could have expected."
		Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"Emotionally and geographically, this is a show with real epic scope, and it earns the laughter and occasional tears that it wrings from the audience thanks to a real and unquestionable, well, sweetness."
		Alan Sepinwall Rolling Stone	"A gentle take on a dystopian tale (...) a slightly dark but mostly optimistic fairy tale — and a very entertaining one, at that (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"
		Daniel D'Addario Variety	"Tthere is enough in the way of complication here to keep parents intrigued without sending the show spinning down into pure absurdity for its own sake"
		Ben Travers IndieWire	"The series’ efficient storytelling, world-building, and character work make it easy to switch off your brain and enjoy the adventure"
