Life's humor is cringey, its dramatic moments rarely authentic. I'm hard pressed to think of another show in recent memory that gave you so little reason to tune in the following week.
March 07, 2018
Life Sentence has an off-putting preciousness to it while grinding through one "crisis" after another.
March 08, 2018
Despite the cliches, Brooke Lyons and Jayson Blair are instantly appealing.

The relentless cheer can be annoying, but Hale's charms, and the appeal of the wider cast mostly smooths it over.
March 07, 2018
Life Sentence comes from that vein of CW shows that echo programming from the old WB, sentimental and amusing dramedies that generally haven't succeeded.
March 08, 2018
Life Sentence picks one of the least dramatically satisfying paths, one that doesn't leave room for much truth either.
March 13, 2018
Sweet but shallow dramedy about life after cancer.

You can see why the CW was intrigued by this setup from show creators Erin Cardillo and Richard Keith: Girl escapes death and lives not-so-happily ever after. Hale is a winning presence, all wide eyes and cute Peter Pan collars.

Life Sentence only seems to want to laugh at life's propensity for head-kicking. That, in turn, makes the series' investigation of second chances overly saccharine. And that feels like a disservice to the cast, which is really quite enjoyable.
March 09, 2018
Life Sentence is not that show. It's a whimsical family drama with an unexpected, poignant jumping-off point.
