Reception
Review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes gave the show a score of 45% based on 42 reviews, with an average rating of 5.4/10. The website's critics consensus reads, "This old-fashioned tour through F. Scott Fitzgerald's vision of Hollywood has lush production values and an attractive varnish of glamorous pedigree, but lacks a storytelling hook or a compelling character to latch onto - resulting in an inert bauble that is pleasing to look at but elusive to feel." On Metacritic, the show holds a weighted average score of 57 out of 100 based on 30 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".
