Sterling Point is nostalgic for a certain kind of 1990s/2000s teen storytelling while also feeling fresh and contemporary in its character work. Go to Full Review

Adele N @Adele222 19h Loved.If you’re a fan of well-done coming-of-age stories, you will like this. It’s about sisterhood, queerness, with some straight love triangle stuff if that’s more your jam. See more Sharlene V @Sharlene839 2d I just finished it. there were good moments and the acting and dialogue was realistic. But the story didn't really captivate me. I was bored out of my mind. I think it went on for too long. I'm all for character driven plots etc but this just wasn't for me. See more Luz S @Luz1987 2d It's so much better than it has any right to be. Not a matterpiece by any means, there a absolut ly flaws, but i really enjoyed it. And it makes me happy when media for teens is actually good. See more Elisha I @asapidox 3d A slow and pretty average start, but Episode 4 was a huge turning point. The season picked up nicely in the second half, with some really strong episodes before settling into a decent finale. See more Fran H @clumsy2726 3d I was pleasantly surprised how nuanced the script and the acting were. The dynamics between the majority of the characters were exceptionally well thought out. See more Jenna B @RT78990033217 3d This was a pretty easy watch. A few storylines felt a little predictable, but overall I had a good time with it. See more Read all reviews
