	Media	Author	Review
		Joshua Rivera Polygon	2The raw materials of the first half of this season are promising. For now, what’s most compelling is Y’s specific lens on one of the most familiar post-apocalyptic tropes"
		Alan Sepinwall Rolling Stone	"Y: The Last Man, a solid but frustrating show that frequently struggles to embrace what’s unique about itself. The problem partly is one of timing. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Darren Franich Entertainment Weekly	"Y: The Last Man was one of the best comics ever. Now it's a boring TV show (...) A dutiful adaptation, turning the comic's eccentricity into a familiar genre wallow."
		Judy Berman Time	"The Last Man improves so much over the course of its first six episodes that its potential feels limitless. (...) the show might well become something special"
		Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"An album of apocalyptic greatest hits (...) The series is often provocative, generally compelling and almost never quite as entertaining as it should be."
		Lacy Baugher Paste Magazine	"A Potent Dystopian Concept Is Made Bland and Unremarkable (...) an almost completely forgettable thought experiment that doesn’t bother interrogating the most interesting questions it poses in any substantial way"
		Caroline Framke Variety	"It can’t quite handle all its ambitions (...) the lack of humor and romance in the series represent sorely missed opportunities to create a more complete, believable world."
		Kayla Cobb Decider	"It’s a series with a whole that is far more fascinating than its slow-paced parts. If you give it the space of a few episodes, this new drama promises great things"
		Keith Phipps TV Guide	"[It counts] on simmering intrigue and the occasional burst of action to keep viewers engaged (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut	"It takes a while to get the exposition out of the way, but this adaptation of 'Y: The Last Man' has plenty of potential (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"
