Is the first season of the Sweetbitter TV show on Starz a tasty treat? As we all know, the Nielsen ratings typically play a big role in determining whether a TV show like Sweetbitter is cancelled or renewed for season two. Unfortunately, most of us do not live in Nielsen households.

A Starz drama, Sweetbitter stars Ella Purnell, Tom Sturridge, Caitlin FitzGerald, Paul Sparks, Evan Jonigkeit, Eden Epstein, Jasmine Mathews, Daniyar, Katerina Tannenbaum, Todd Gearhart, Gabriel Gutierrez, Rafa Beatos, and Jimmie Saito. The drama centers on Tess (Purnell), who moves to New York City in search of a new life. Tess is just 22 years old when she hits town. Soon though, she is selected to train at one of the city’s top restaurants. Although she thinks she has landed in a safe place, with a reliable income, Tess quickly gets caught up in the high-energy chaos of the big city dining scene, where she joins a chosen family of her co-workers. Together, they’re trying to taste all that city life has to offer.

Fantastic! Cannot wait for Season 2!
The characters are so well written, the story line is just complex enough to keep you enthralled. I love Sasha and Will and even Simone and Tess is so honest and brave – perfect main character.
I simply cannot wait to devour another episode of Sweetbitter…the show has hooked me and I cant get enough…half hour is not enough time to tell this captivating story…..
Completely agree with you take on this series. If you ever held any position from bussing, wait staff, chef, bartender in a fast pace restaurant you can relate to this(especially if it was a time in your life when you were discovering yourself). I love from the book that this is based on how the author compares a well flowing restaurant to a well choreographed dance. Hope enough people see the genius in this series and keep it around. Perfect casting!!!
I’m enjoying the series very much. It’s coming of age story that takes place in a fast paced New York fine dining establishment. It’s edgy but wise. It’s well written, acted, and it seems realistic! I look forward to it’s renewal!
No! It’s boring and too white for tv nowadays. Starz should know better by now than to try something like this. Literally only one black girl and we barely see her. Not likely to get renewed.
