Review of Maggie

Maggie (2022)
6/10
Maggie feels like an original idea trapped in an outdated, overused template.
6 July 2022
A cookie-cutter series, with each scene feeling repetitive to past shows I have already seen, like a thirty-minute deja vu. Why watch reruns of Modern Family when you have Black-ish, why miss Pivoting when you have Maggie. Disney, Hulu, and ABC shows, always have these great twists that end up playing out in the same mirrored fashion. The main character is written in a way where she is such a sad person that laughing at a funny topic about her made me feel like a bully. The other characters are lovable, with a few funny moments in each episode that helped to keep the show somewhat entertaining. Maggie is a show that I like, but don't love, which is disappointing because it could and should be so much more.
