Twenties never comes down hard one way or the other about what makes for good black art, but revels in showing people having the debate...

The show's a bit thin on the comedy end of things, often going for more of a hangout vibe than trying to sling jokes. Fortunately, there's strong enough chemistry among the three leads to make that approach work.

Twenties is a hot mess in all the best ways.

Newcomer Gibbs is good, but it's a shame Waithe doesn't appear in her own story - a sharply written, often amusing one.
March 04, 2020
Gibbs' easygoing chemistry with each of her co-stars - including recurring player Kim Whitley, who plays Hattie's lonely mom - mean that the central trio make for believable besties from their very first scene together.

Gibbs and Brown possess an unmistakable chemistry that makes Twenties eminently watchable, if only because it appears to be on track to answer a question that thus far, no other show has: What happens when the #MeToo bogeyman is a black woman?
March 03, 2020
Twenties is a solid coming-of-age comedy that makes a concerted effort to develop its own rhythm and visual style to set it apart.

For the moment, Waithe's Twenties is fine, it gets by, but here's hoping it exceeds that to become the Black excellence Waithe believes she can deliver-and that her viewers deserve.
