Leila Latif Guardian Meryl Streep helps make the best season ever Rated: 5/5 Oct 1, 2023 Full Review Shirley Li The Atlantic The stakes are low, but the joke density is high, and the twists are always more fun than frightening. Sep 1, 2023 Full Review Geordie Gray The Australian Martin and Short are in great form, and Gomez meets them beat for beat – the chemistry is delightful. Add a lashing of Wes Anderson-lite cinematography, and you’ve got yourself a winner. Aug 17, 2023 Full Review Tara Ariano Cracked Each episode tends to pass narration to a different character, underscoring the breadth of the show’s ambitions. The impression the viewer gets is that we could potentially follow any character into their own side story and be perfectly satisfied. Rated: A Oct 19, 2023 Full Review Ethan Dayton That Shelf ... this outing’s success is easily attributable to Short, Gomez, and Martin, but also incredible musical numbers by songwriting duo Pasek & Paul as well as the brilliant Meryl Streep ... Oct 15, 2023 Full Review Brian Phillips The Ringer The hit Hulu whodunit is a comedy that features exquisite interior design, beloved guest stars, and a bulldog named Winnie. But it’s also, um, a show about murder? Oct 6, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
