What to Know

Critics Consensus

While Inventing Anna is as tonally wobbly as Julia Garner's intentionally daffy accent, her committed performance and the salacious story make for juicy entertainment.

Liz Shannon Miller Consequence 03/19/2022
One of the most fascinating series of the year so far, playing right into our collective loves of gossip and scandal because Rhimes knows exactly what shes doing. Go to Full Review Alissa Wilkinson Vox 03/18/2022
What’s the point? In the case of Inventing Anna, the answer is some ethically muddled, bizarrely patronizing mumbo-jumbo about how women are punished for doing things that men get away with. Okay? Is that all? Go to Full Review Alessa Dominguez BuzzFeed News 03/04/2022
In trying to make the show about gossip and the media, Inventing Anna actually misses whatever it is that Anna herself was up to and rather focused on what she thought she was doing. Instead of adding complexity, it just comes off as muddled. Go to Full Review M.N. Miller Ready Steady Cut 11/05/2022
3.5/5
Inventing Anna is a fun, suspenseful, and highly addictive ride. Go to Full Review Alexandra MacAaron Women's Voices for Change 08/24/2022
8/10
Julia Garner, two-time Emmy winner, disappears into the enigma wrapped in a riddle (wrapped in Chanel) that is Anna, a complex woman on a protracted crime spree. Between the sets and costumes and the story’s sheer audacity, it’s great fun to watch. Go to Full Review Juan Carlos Galindo El Pais (Spain) 06/07/2022

Nalaya C @Nalaya Apr 9 Absolutely loved it! Great actors! There's nothing quite like an absurd true story like this one See more Andrew M @Andrewmiller1020 Apr 8 I was so disappointed in this show I had to create an account on here to leave a bad review. It would been better if they didn’t make the reporter lady out to be such a psychopath and didn’t care about her family. See more Rachel W @rachelannwest Nov 20 Truly pathetic ending with so many people siding with a narcissistic thief. Horrible show. The fact that others got away with white collar crime doesn't justify empathy for a selfish cold-hearted criminal. Blah. See more Jenn F. @2JFeloni Sep 7 Julia Garner is amazing! See more Brooklyn P. @Brooklynpruim Aug 20 Super interesting and couldn’t stop watching See more Mario R @RT43264089 05/11/2025 I loved it! Reminded me of The devil Dresses Prada, Succession and other stories about high fashion, ultra-rich people. Great acting, very funny See more Read all reviews
