Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times There’s pure pleasure to be found in the writing, which is sharp and smart and natural; the direction, which shapes and is shaped by the evolving material without getting in its way; and uniformly marvelous performances. Aug 7, 2025 Full Review Nina Metz Chicago Tribune While the premise of “Demascus” is enticing — what might our lives look like with small changes? — the six-episode series doesn’t live up to its initial promise. Rated: 2/4 Aug 7, 2025 Full Review Marlon Wallace The M Report (WBOC.com) This series feels like it could be an offshoot of 'Black Mirror' (2011)... [and] akin to Daniel Scheinert and Daniel Kwon's 'Everything Everywhere All At Once' (2022) and it feels as though Chisholm was inspired by that Oscar-winning film. Aug 19, 2025 Full Review Ty'Kira Smalls Common Sense Media This series blends cerebral sci-fi elements with chaotic comedy; Demascus is refreshing, unique, and vulnerable. Aug 15, 2025 Full Review Joel Keller Decider Demascus is funny in the right spots and weird in all the right ways, but it’s also an interesting take on Black identity, whether it’s in the current world or the technology-enhanced version of it that’s in the series.

Kristyn M Pointless waste of time and life. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/19/25 Full Review Shelley W Amazing showcase of plot to subplot and the compulsive personality that peeks into an intimate portrait of the dreams of a black male dealing with grief, sexuality and the capitalistic expectations of creating your own reality. By the way--Demascus gives the audience a large dose of an unspoken reality in the black community. It screams De Mask Us! #iykyk Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/18/25 Full Review Read all reviews
