Critical reception

"Beware of Young Girls" received mostly mixed to negative reviews from critics. Patrick Sproull from Den of Geek stated, "overall, the performances remain superlative and the underlying postmodern fun remains infectious - but the script, while not messy per se, was focussed on areas that don't need to be touched on."[6][7] The A.V. club LaToya Ferguson gave the episode a D, citing "What's worst about "Beware Of Young Girls" is that it's neither aggressively bad nor aggressively good enough to make it even a middle of the road episode. Instead, it's merely a nothing episode."[8] Terri Schwartz from IGN gave the episode 7.4 out of 10. She said that ""Beware of Young Girls" felt too much like a filler episode that was trying to buy more time until Scream Queens needs to resolve the whodunnit mystery."[7]
