Press

“This show has some intense game... A+ action packed comedy” -Variety

“Broke all the rules of how to make television” -Forbes

“John Hughes for the modern generation” -Houston Press

“Smart writing, good acting, and just plain excellent storytelling.” - AdWeek

“The cast is a spectacular ensemble, the writers wield extraordinary command, and the direction trumps their wealthier contemporaries. That kind of quality is a product of love and care, a skimpy resource these days which makes it all the more precious. To think of where VGHS started to where this season ended on is kind of mind-blowing, a creative journey I feel grateful to have witnessed.” - ComicBastards
