John Nugent Empire Magazine This golfing comedy is just about on par — but it could have taken a bigger swing and move beyond the usual sporting stereotypes. Still, Owen Wilson shines. Rated: 3/5 Jun 10, 2025 Full Review Tim Glanfield The Times (UK) Like Ted Lasso, this is a story that is unafraid to take its flawed characters on an emotionally charged comedic flight over fairway and rough, through the woods and into bunkers, before leaving them all a putt at happiness. Rated: 4/5 Jun 10, 2025 Full Review Robert Levin Newsday Owen Wilson makes it work. Rated: 3/4 Jun 9, 2025 Full Review Alise Chaffins MacGuffin or Meaning (Substack) ...there are multiple ways to react to big events in your life, and Stick approaches them with a heart and humor that will no doubt resonate with an audience differently. And that difference is good. Rated: 4/5 Jul 15, 2025 Full Review Sarah Knight Adamson Sarah's Backstage Pass As a huge fan of Owen Wilson, I was surprised that he would take on a 'Golf themed series'---although it’s comical, delightful and teaches all about competitive golf and the pressure of the players. Rated: 4/4 Jul 10, 2025 Full Review tt stern-enzi Fox19 (Cincinnati, OH) It's a good, fine, fun series to watch. Owen Wilson has never been better. Rated: B Jul 7, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

Wade W Stick is one of Apple TV's latest offerings and it is one of their best, albeit with one major flaw. The show is mostly good, with a wonderful performance from Owen Wilson as former golf pro, Pryce. It's cool to see him in a TV show rather than a film. He becomes a mentor for young, up and comer Santi, who is played by Peter Dager. Mariana Trevino plays his mom, while Marc Maron plays Pryce's friend. These four are all great. I love the performances all around, for different reasons. We even get Timothy Olyphant for a few episodes. The dynamics and dialogue between all the main characters are what makes it so watchable. I felt invested in their stories and what they were going through. A job well done with them. The biggest flaw of the show is the Zero character, played by Lilli Kay. She is just annoying and cringe with some of the things she says. I don't know what they were thinking with her. She's snotty and entitled. I can't stand her. It looks like I'm not alone. Overall, Stick is rewarding in the end, especially if you "stick" with it. There are many emotional moments throughout that really connects you with the characters and makes you feel for them. Some of the comedy is genuinely good. Even if you don't like golf, it has enough going for it to suck you in. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/17/25 Full Review Stu N Great show. I've been a scratch golfer for close to 15 years and it's good to see a show finally take the time to get the golf right. So many movies (Tin Cup, Bagger Vance, Happy Gilmore) haven't bothered to be authentic. Haven't even tried. Hats off to Stick makers for getting the sport right. I saw a few moments where the kid's swing was a little off, but for the most part they really did a great job. Owen Wilson is great. I think this is a real winner. Binged the first 9 and ready for the finale. Nice work. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/17/25 Full Review Doug P Not a good golf show. It is ridiculous that a kid that has not really played in a last several years comes out in his first round and plays great golf. Drive for show, put for dough. If you know anything about golf, do not watch. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/17/25 Full Review Tom S To be honest I watched only 20 minutes. I can't stand any sports comedy, movie or TV show where the athletes don't play like athletes or the sport has no foot in the door of reality. No one would ever put up money to fund a golfer after seeing them only hit range balls. Bye. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/16/25 Full Review corey l Put it this way, our family really hopes they continue this series and have another season. The characters are well developed by now and the plot is well tee’d up for exciting shows of the Zygote growing into serious competition. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/16/25 Full Review Tara R This is my new Wednesday night obsession. Comedy done right! Funny. Smart. And suprisingly heartfelt. Who knew Owen Wilson was such a great actor!
