The Hollywood Reporter and Variety reviewed the show positively but commented on the length
of the episodes (up to 40 minutes) and the familiar premise do not always work in the show's
favor.[8] Daniel Fienberg at The Hollywood Reporter observes, "It's a variation on a common
theme, but it's also squirmingly effective, fitfully funny and carried by a great, uncompromising
performance from Gillian Jacobs...If you can warm up to the prickly, but probably realistic,
characters, there's a lot to like, if not love."[7] Alan Sepinwall of Hitfix reviewed it positively and
said, "I can see all those issues, and more. I just don't care. When you feel it—as I very quickly
did with Love—nothing else matters."[11]
On Rotten Tomatoes, the second season has an approval rating of 94 percent based on 17
reviews, with an average rating of 7.19/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "In its
sophomore season, Love treads the balance between comedy and drama with greater
confidence, going deeper into the endearing, frustrating, delightfully realistic relationship of
Mickey and Gus."[12] On Metacritic, the season has an average score of 80 out of 100, based on 6
critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[13]
