Hugo Rifkind Times (UK) There’s a sweet and quite sad aspect to the relationship between Dawkins and Fagin... Also, not that this is quite the point, it will leave you feeling pretty damn glad that they eventually invented anaesthetic. Jan 19, 2024 Full Review Dan Einav Financial Times Inconsistent but broadly enjoyable, the eight-part Hulu series is a hybrid of crime caper and period hospital drama that takes some famous intellectual property and inserts it into a story that could have easily worked without it. Rated: 3/5 Jan 19, 2024 Full Review James Jackson Times (UK) Brodie-Sangster and Thewlis are a fine double act, and it’s all so breezy you barely pause to consider how unlikely the whole romp is. An artful dodge indeed. Rated: 4/5 Jan 18, 2024 Full Review Donal Lynch Sunday Independent (Ireland) An Oliver Twist prequel might sound anything but tempting, but this series, which transports Dickens’s cheeky chappie to 1850s Australia where he’s become an entertainer, has winning performances... Feb 5, 2024 Full Review Neely Swanson Beverly Hills Courier The casting is as masterful as the writing is imaginative. Jan 26, 2024 Full Review Hannah Jane Parkinson Observer (UK) The entire cast are having an obvious blast, and snappy editing, the contemporary score and hyperactive directing by Jeffrey Walker help it zip along. Rated: 3/5 Jan 21, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member WE NEED ANOTHER SEASON PLEASE I BEG THIS WAS LITERALLY THE BEST SHOW EVER PLEASE ANOTHER SEASON PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I HAVE TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/10/24 Full Review Audience Member Personagens e plot muito bem desenvolvidos e o roteiro escala de uma maneira suave e agradável para quem assiste. Também é bem interessante as interações entre os protagonistas, além de, claro, o plot secundário do romance entre Jack e Belle, em que ao decorrer dos episódios vai se tornando cada vez mais interessante, houveram momentos que eu ansiava desesperadamente por mais interações e diálogos entre ambos pois havia uma química verdadeira e quase viciante de ver, que me atraía cada vez mais. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/22/24 Full Review Eric S Started watching it with no expectation, what a great show... And, I have to add, there's a great twist at the end (😉) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/04/24 Full Review Elsa B Don’t miss out on the best series in a long time! Go watch and love! Seriously I would have ignored it just judging by the poster but then I would have missed out big time! We all need a second season! GO WATCH THE ARTFUL DODGER!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/28/24 Full Review Sarah D A MUST WATCH. This is quite honestly the most captivating and clever show I have ever watched. And I have watched many shows. I am REALLYYYYY hoping for a season two!!!!!! I normally don’t watch any medical/hospital/surgical shows because I don’t have the stomach for gore. And I did have to look away a few times, but overall I found it so interesting how different the medical world was back then that I just HAD to keep watching!!! And that love story!!?! MY HEART!!!!!!! Please, please, please, renew for a second season. I’m telling everyone I know to watch this show, lol. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/25/24 Full Review Audience Member Entertaining. Show how since forever women’s rights are still not being respected. How their opinions are always underestimated by Men’s Society. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/24/24 Full Review Read all reviews
