Nathan Fielder returns to television to explore the lengths one person will go to reduce the uncertainties of everyday life. Fielder stars as the director of rehearsals, which are elaborately staged scenarios re-creating parts of ordinary people's lives that are meant to help them prepare for a big moment in their lives. A construction crew, a legion of actors and seemingly unlimited resources all come together to allow ordinary people to rehearse for these moments by giving them the opportunity to play them out in carefully crafted simulations of Fielder's own design.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Never fear, Nathan Fielder is here to solve air travel safety and further his frustrated quest for human connection in a second Rehearsal that's just as audacious, cringey, and uproariously funny as the first.

Lili Loofbourow Washington Post “The Rehearsal” develops into a sideways anthropological treatise on pilots, who turn out to be a reserved and lonely bunch. May 28, 2025 Full Review Phillip Maciak The New Republic This season’s experiments have been enthralling, illuminating, even occasionally beautiful. May 28, 2025 Full Review Hannah J Davies Guardian Navel-gazing and the many ethical questions raised here aside, Fielder pulls it off spectacularly. Rated: 5/5 May 27, 2025 Full Review Alan French Sunshine State Cineplex Rather than simply committing to bits and cribbing comedy sketches, Fielder has reshaped what it means to be altruistic in the entertainment world. Rated: 10/10 May 28, 2025 Full Review Anthony Morris ScreenHub Suffice to say, jaws will drop at some of what you’ll see; this journey to create safe landings is one wild ride Rated: 4.5/5 May 26, 2025 Full Review Nathan Chizen Exclaim! 'The Rehearsal' delivers a "docuseries" that flits between abject artificiality and questionable reality with a simple, almost invisible grace. Rated: 10/10 May 14, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

Sam J Nathan Fielder returns once again to bring quite possibly his most hilarious, unbelievable and genuinely fantastic pieces of television to date. The depth of story, Elaborate sets and uncanny effort make this show rich in brilliance. This show is even better if you're a fan of Nathan's classic character, it's a genuine must-see for all. It makes you question just how far television can go, and stomps out 'They don't make it like they used to'. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/28/25 Full Review Cheyenne M Insane, unlike anything else on television Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/28/25 Full Review Josef G Groundbreaking television that can not be described or categorized. Nathan has topped all his previous efforts while finding something important to say and leaving the audience with fascinating ideas and scenarios to ponder over. It’s pretty funny too sometimes. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/27/25 Full Review Audience Member Boeing Borat proves that the best jokes take work. Years. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/26/25 Full Review Parker C After season 1 being one of the best seasons of television ever, it’s mind boggling that season 2 might even top it. The rehearsal is able to combine real life scenarios with humor in a way that is thought provoking. A documentary, social experiment that feels like a scripted movie. Unique in every way. 11/10 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/26/25 Full Review Will B This might be the best show currently on tv. It’s so silly but also makes you think. Nathan draws parallels with some of the most out there things, usually for the sake of a joke, but with just enough logic that it makes sense. He then keeps pushing these ideas further and further into the most absurd places. Good for him for doing something unique and owning it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/25/25 Full Review Read all reviews
