After another run-in with trouble, a judge sentences her to community service, and she is sent to lead the Pino Porcupines, a wilderness club at a local inner-city middle school that needs an adult advisor and finds in Kaylie the closest available candidate. Her domineering mom-ager has always prized her as a pretty face, and the series follows her as she is forced outside her comfort zone and proves herself to her followers, the kids, and herself.[1](https://about.netflix.com/en/news/netflix-announces-original-live-action-comedy-series-team-kaylie-starring-bryana-salaz) • [6](https://www.commonsensemedia.org/tv-reviews/team-kaylie)\n\nThe club members make up the core ensemble. Amber (Alison Fernandez) is a tough, impulsive, street-smart student leader of the Wilderness Club who is less than thrilled by Kaylie's presence; Jackie (Symera Jackson) is a straight-A rule follower who aims at an [Ivy League](https://www.edgepedia.org/ivy-league) college; Chewy (Elie Samouhi) is a bumbling class clown; Ray Ray (Kai Calhoun) is a self-aware pop-culture devotee who worships Kaylie almost as much as her wardrobe; and Valeria (Eliza Pryor) is a would-be witch whose spells are nearly as poor as her people skills. [Rosa Blasi](https://www.edgepedia.org/rosa-blasi) plays Kit.[1](https://about.netflix.com/en/news/netflix-announces-original-live-action-comedy-series-team-kaylie-starring-bryana-salaz) • [4](https://fmdb.mov/en/series/93960-team-kaylie)\n\nOver the course of the series, Kaylie and the club members, all described by the show's makers as a little lost and looking for a roadmap through life, come to find common ground and good friends.[1](https://about.netflix.com/en/news/netflix-announces-original-live-action-comedy-series-team-kaylie-starring-bryana-salaz) Recurring rivals, the wealthy kids of the Lumberjacks school, taunt the Porcupines with nicknames such as \"Porcupoops.\"[6](https://www.commonsensemedia.org/tv-reviews/team-kaylie)\n\n## Production\n\nThe series was announced by Netflix on February 1, 2019, as production began in Hollywood. Tracy Bitterolf, who said she set out to make a show she would have wanted to watch at eight years old, created the series and served as co-executive producer; Pamela Eells O'Connell developed it, executive produced it through Bon Mot Productions, and served as showrunner. Bob Koherr (*The Conners*, *Jessie*) directed.[1](https://about.netflix.com/en/news/netflix-announces-original-live-action-comedy-series-team-kaylie-starring-bryana-salaz) O'Connell had earlier executive produced *The Suite Life of Zack and Cody* and created *[Jessie](https://www.edgepedia.org/jessie-2011-tv-series)* and *Bunk'd* for [Disney Channel](https://www.edgepedia.org/disney-channel), a background reviewers frequently cited when describing the show's tone.[1](https://about.netflix.com/en/news/netflix-announces-original-live-action-comedy-series-team-kaylie-starring-bryana-salaz) • [7](https://screenwiseapp.com/media/team-kaylie-show)\n\nSalaz, an actress-singer who competed on season 7 of NBC's *The Voice* and appeared in Netflix's *[Malibu Rescue](https://www.edgepedia.org/malibu-rescue)*, played the title role.[1](https://about.netflix.com/en/news/netflix-announces-original-live-action-comedy-series-team-kaylie-starring-bryana-salaz) • [8](https://media.netflix.com/en/only-on-netflix/80238106)\n\n## Release\n\nNetflix ordered 20 episodes of the show and released them in parts rather than as one conventional season. The first five episodes premiered on September 23, 2019; Part 2 arrived on December 2, 2019; and Part 3, consisting of 9 episodes, was released on February 3, 2020.[2](https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/comedy/team-kaylie-part-2/) • [9](https://www.thetvdb.com/series/team-kaylie) The episode database TheTVDB lists the release as running from September 2019 to February 2020 and marks the series ended, while TVmaze listed it as still running on its Monday 30-minute schedule.[9](https://www.thetvdb.com/series/team-kaylie) • [5](https://www.tvmaze.com/shows/40812/team-kaylie) The last new episode, 3x09 \"Bridge Over Troubled Daughter,\" aired on February 3, 2020, in which Kaylie fulfills her community service requirement and considers a major move while the Porcupines embark on a rescue mission.[5](https://www.tvmaze.com/shows/40812/team-kaylie)\n\nAs of 2026 the series streams on Netflix and Netflix Standard with Ads, in HD or 4K with [Dolby Vision](https://www.edgepedia.org/dolby-vision), with no free streaming options listed.[3](https://www.justwatch.com/us/tv-show/team-kaylie) Netflix's own page presents it as three parts totaling 20 episodes under the 2020 listing.[10](https://www.netflix.com/ca/title/80238106) Listing services disagree on how the 20 episodes are grouped: [JustWatch](https://www.edgepedia.org/justwatch) counts 20 episodes in season 1, 11 in season 2, and 9 in season 3, while TheTVDB's alternate order gives 5, 6, and 9.[3](https://www.justwatch.com/us/tv-show/team-kaylie) • [9](https://www.thetvdb.com/series/team-kaylie) Rotten Tomatoes lists it as four seasons spanning 2019 to present.[11](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/team_kaylie)\n\n## Reception\n\nAudience scores were low for a Netflix original: the show held a 4.9 rating on IMDb.[7](https://screenwiseapp.com/media/team-kaylie-show) Rotten Tomatoes showed no averaged Tomatometer or Popcornmeter score for the series.[11](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/team_kaylie)\n\n**Critics and parent guides** placed the show firmly in the Disney Channel sitcom tradition. Common Sense Media's reviewer called it a \"cliched but diverse series about fallen social media star,\" noting decent writing and appealing actors but glossy, mannered characters who \"throw rehearsed quips at each other in lieu of actually relating.\" The same review credited the cast with being more diverse than early-2000s Disney Channel ensembles, in race, ethnicity, body type, class, and gender presentation, and rated it appropriate from age 10, with occasional semi-vulgar language, flirting and dating talk, and jokes played for laughs about danger.[6](https://www.commonsensemedia.org/tv-reviews/team-kaylie) The Screenwise parent-review site gave it a 54 percent WISE score, calling it a textbook fish-out-of-water sitcom in the vein of *Bunk'd* and *Jessie*, extremely safe for its target age with a 96 safety sub-score, and best suited to the 8-to-11 audience, while finding its lessons about valuing real experiences over digital followers thinly executed.[7](https://screenwiseapp.com/media/team-kaylie-show)\n\nReviewers consistently identified the Porcupines club members, rather than the title character, as the show's most grounded and likable element.[7](https://screenwiseapp.com/media/team-kaylie-show) An independent reviewer writing in October 2019 described the series as aimed at young teenage audiences, contrasting the celebrity lifestyle with ordinary life through over-the-top characters, and noted themes of body image, broken families, and responsibility.[12](https://rhysreviews.com/2019/10/03/team-kaylie-review/)\n\n## References\n\n1.
