"It quickly evolves into a bighearted, bittersweet, sometimes perverse chronicle of three unique siblings teaching each other how to live."

—

Time Magazine

"It's a concept as old as time, told with specificity, smarts, and sincerity by [Josh] Thomas."

—

Rolling Stone

"Thomas again displays a deft and distinctive touch."

—

The Age

"This updated execution results in a deeply funny comedy teeming with heart, wit, and a refreshing level of humanity."

—

A.V. Club

"Part of the pleasure of "Everything's Gonna Be Okay" is watching the characters realize that there is no precise model for their arrangement..."

—

The New York Times

"A winsome, witty new series from an Australian comedy wunderkind."

—

Hollywood Reporter

"If the series can maintain this momentum, it could become the next big thing in American pop culture, and deservedly so."

—

Salon

"There's also a careful attention to small details that show how the series hasn't forgotten what's come before."

—

IndieWire

"Thomas and this show is far more interested in the weirder, funnier, more real moments that can happen in between life's seemingly biggest events than drawing out unnecessary drama."

—

Variety

"Has three fascinating leads and a multi-layered approach to showing how its characters will find themselves as the first season goes on."

—

Decider

"Delightful. It's uncomfortably honest at times."

—

Sydney Morning Herald

"The jokes suffer from its distracted direction, which isn't helped by an annoyingly jaunty score and the kind of over-lit cinematography befitting of a daytime TV soap opera."
