Chris Vognar Boston Globe 17h
The performances in “Margo’s Got Money Troubles” carry it a long way. Fanning can do fierce or tender, and when Margo smiles (and scowls) for the webcam, we see not a victim but a woman taking control of her image. Go to Full Review
Robert Levin Newsday 4d
4/4
Fanning, one of the best in the business, gives a performance of uncommon richness and grace. She understands this person in a visceral way. There's strength and wisdom in the character, but also the sort of innocence that comes with being a young adult. Go to Full Review
Peter Travers The Travers Take 4d
3.5/4
You might think that a series with Elle Fanning as an unwed mother who turns to OnlyFans to work her way through college would not be a mile of smiles, but it most definitely is. Go to Full Review

Barbara Ellen Observer (UK) 16h
I end up thinking of Margo as an updated "Juno," with a different outcome. The show pulls it off beautifully. Go to Full Review
Alci Rengifo Entertainment Voice 1d
For Fanning, in particular, this is another career high mark, full of the fear, tension and well-earned joy of someone taking bold chances because they are suddenly tethered to a new life. Go to Full Review

Michael K @kennedyland 7h Excellent show. Great script, acting, music, the whole show. See more Bryon D. @RT15347691 1d Just three episodes into the show It's already funny charming down to earth real life of a new mother and what has to be done to make it. See more Tom W @TexOracle 1d Good so far, chick flick faire, but characters, acting, and direction are compelling to keep the men watching, too. They're dribbling in the episodes weekly (hate that) so difficult to tell if story ultimately proves satisfying and entertaining, but so far so good. See more Ken D @mynameisken 1d Why's Nicole Kidman EVERYWHERE?! Give the job to someone else. See more Rob K. @muscleblaster 1d I just watched the first episode and I just started to Watch to see if I’d like it and man, was I impressed with the writing and acting. Looking forward to the next 2 episodes and the ones after that. I believe this will be one of Apple TV’s best and most watched shows. See more Summy L @Summyreviews 2d Wow such a great show!! Definitely a must see and a potential awards juggernaut See more Read all reviews
