      Mary McNamara Los Angeles Times There are just enough references to the actual pandemic to keep "Staged" from being pure fantasy, but it's hilarious, endearing and all very resonant, especially for those of us lucky enough to work from home. Dec 29, 2020 Full Review Scott Bryan BBC.com The problem I have are moments when Tennant and Sheen are not together. It gets overly-complicated with the introduction of all the other characters and sort of loses its way a little bit. Jul 15, 2020 Full Review Anna Leszkiewicz New Statesman At points it can seem a bit, well, staged. But it is nevertheless charming: absurdly silly in a quiet, understated way. Jun 17, 2020 Full Review Marty Brown Common Sense Media Affable shutdown comedy features profanity, sexual innuendo. Rated: 3/5 Mar 29, 2021 Full Review Diane Pershing Malibu Times It turns out that Tennant is funny, rueful, quick-witted, a bit of a slob and also just a bit insecure and self-centered-as are all great actors. Jan 23, 2021 Full Review Zehra Phelan 2 Minute Telly The bite-sized length of the episodes fit perfectly into a captivatingly, over-exaggerated delve into the lives of the precious actor and most importantly a riotous friendship. Rated: 9/10 Jul 8, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

      hila r love it love it love it!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/06/24 Full Review Tim L Brilliant! One of the most humorous and intelligent shows on TV. It's addictive. Just binged the first season this morning but will take a short beak and watch the next. Sheen and Tennant are fabulous and their significant others almost steal the show. The guest stars are perfect. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/07/23 Full Review Rich B This series is hilarious! We stumbled across it this evening and binged the first 4 episodes. The writing, acting, and wit are just great! We will finish the season tomorrow night and then on to Season 2. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/06/23 Full Review Shioka O Truly fun to watch when you are at home. I't written but feel so real and just so timely. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Ronnie R The funniest programme I've seen on television in decades Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/21/22 Full Review Audience Member Stumbled upon this late one night after just finishing up a video chat with friends, and ended up watching the entire first season in one sitting. David Tennant and Michael Sheen are fantastic on screen together, and loved that the show included their real life partners, who at times seemed to just about steal the show.
