Reception

The series holds an average rating of 83% on Rotten Tomatoes, based on five positive (“fresh”) critic reviews and one negative (“rotten”) review. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/love_con_revenge Reality Blurred wrote that, "The series has things it wants to do: letting victims testify, telling them they aren’t crazy or stupid, and legally pantsing the men who made them feel that way. And it does those things, and it learns how to make those things watchable along the way. It’s more than I can say for a lot of shows." The Decider gave the series a "Stream It" rating. https://decider.com/2025/09/05/love-con-revenge-netflix-review/ The Guardian wrote that, "what could perhaps have made four relatively punchy hour-long episodes or six half hours grows repetitive and loses power over time." [3] Our Culture Mag wrote, "The docuseries isn’t perfect. Editing is shoddy, and some moments feel scripted." [4]
