”What I appreciate most about Flatbush is that it’s a hangout comedy that doesn’t limit its cast of characters to a single workplace, social clique or even age group.… A genuine cross-section of the neighborhood.” - TIME

“Flatbush manages to be relevant and modern without feeling performatively “woke” or desperately topical, dry without being banal, sardonic without being too caustic. In a sea of dramedies, it’s refreshing to see a clear-cut sitcom of such quality.” - Paste Magazine
