Steve Greene IndieWire When Calls is locked in, it's an especially effective slice of horror. That usually comes when the show sticks to the "less is more" side of things. Rated: B+ Jul 30, 2021 Full Review Alexandra Heller-Nicholas ABC Radio (Australia) Based on the French series of the same name, the star-studded scifi thriller series Calls is genuinely exciting television. Rated: 5/5 Apr 30, 2021 Full Review Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald Calls is instantly compelling as telephone calls between people in different parts of the US begin to paint a picture of a terrifying space-time anomaly and a more immediate, throat-ripping kind of menace. Apr 1, 2021 Full Review Maggie Lovitt Millennial Falcon Reviews For fans of conspiracy theories, mind-bending multiverse concepts, and those that question their own realities, Calls plays into all of your worst nightmares and it is a glorious journey. Rated: A Mar 27, 2023 Full Review Kiko Vega Espinof Calls has come at the right time.

Acacia M I was so thrown off when I first started it. I paused halfway through the first episode because I had no idea what I was getting myself into!! I’m not much of a sci-fi person because the stories usually get really dragged out and crazy so I looked up reviews on it and saw it had a very high rating. No one could say exactly what it was about though which left me feeling uncertain. I decided to go for it anyway and I’m ECSTATIC that I did! It soon became addicting and I wanted to know more and more. Reminded me of the Twilight Zone but the stories were more connected in a way. I watched this over the span of two days. Very well done! I highly recommend watching it! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/31/25 Full Review Emma C This show was spine tingling and disturbing as heck. Had to rely on your imagination based on what you were hearing and it was terrifying at times. When it first started I wasn't sure I'd enjoy it it's a v strange concept... but i loved it. Very well done 👏👏👏 another season please? Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/17/25 Full Review Michele W This star studded show is absolutely amazing and so unique unlike anything I have seen or heard! It grabs your attention within the first episode and leaves you wanting more each episode! What a unique way to do horror, sci-fi and thriller television! I wish there was more to watch! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/01/25 Full Review Thomas A Spellbinding and fascinating. Whether you listen to it or watch it, it's some of the best content I've enjoyed in a while. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/13/24 Full Review Sonya T Just started really watching Apple TV. This show was right up my alley. After the first episode each episode after that got better because you understood more. I love Sci fi so anyone who does would enjoy this. Didn't think I would be able to just watch a screen like this but something tells me the visuals would have messed it up. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/07/23 Full Review Alexandra R Excuse me? How is this being called groundbreaking??? It's a PODCAST! xxxD Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/11/23 Full Review Read all reviews
