The Studio

I'll be very sad if this one doesn't come back for another season. Nevertheless, I imagine the showrunners have been thrilled to see their work faithfully spring to life, vision in-tact. Very seldom do you watch a show free of a blemish episode here and there... such is not the case with The Studio. From beginning to finale, every episode is a standalone wild ride to somewhere new. Whether you are a fan of Seth Rogen or otherwise, so long as you share even a tenth of this show's love of television and cinema you will find The Studio to be a worthwhile watch. Come not for any overarching storyline or plot but for the old school Hollywood ride.

The Studio is the closest someone has gotten to Curb Your Enthusiasm spiritually. Don't get me wrong, this show's first season is not as good as Curb's, but it's evident in the way the show is set up that it is slightly mimicking David's style. There's a pattern in the set-up of episodes that I'm on board with.

A few episodes in season 1 have REALLY nailed David's Curb-style humor. The best two episodes of season 1, episodes 6 & 7, delivered on their set-up's most effectively.

There's a beauty in the way each episode operates largely independently of one another. You can watch any episode on its own and enjoy the experience.

The cameos in this show are excellent. Rogan & Goldberg clearly have a lot of fans in the community, and pull off an Entourage-number of cameos that enhance the episode they're in. I deeply enjoy this show and think it will continue improving.

I'm 15 minutes into the first episode and I feel like I'm slightly transported back to Birdman (one of my favorite movies). Antonio Sánchez does his thing with the music, also the camera tracking seems to have the same style. I find it interesting that the series begins with so many iconic faces from cinema, it's something that makes film fans (like me) feel more familiar with what this new series proposes, at least it's quite different from the last Seth series I saw (Pam & Tommy). Maybe watching the first fifteen minutes doesn't merit posting a review but that's what I feel, this seems to be a good start, let's see what happens.

I've been looking forward to The Studio ever since I first heard about it. I had huge expectations considering how great the cast is and I can say without a doubt that this series not only met those expectations but surpassed them in every way. I personally like Seth Rogen but this isn't his normal humor so even if you don't like his usual stuff, you should enjoy this show. This is right there with the best stuff Rogen has ever done. It actually might be his best. It's not just Rogen that shines either, the entire cast is brilliant. The cameos in this is full of A-list celebrities that makes the show just that much better. It's satire on the depiction of Hollywood is spot on. Even though it's a comedy, it's true to the point of how Hollywood continues to put out junk and not care as long as it keeps making money. It's easily one of the best new shows of 2025...it was absolutely hilarious. Each episode will literally make you laugh out loud. They already renewed it for another season so I hope they plan on doing several more seasons after that too.

The Studio is nothing short of a comedic masterclass. I went in expecting to laugh (it's Seth Rogen, after all), but I wasn't prepared for just how smart, layered, and downright brilliant this show would be. It's not just funny - it's clever. The kind of funny that sticks with you, with punchlines that land hard and then somehow keep echoing in your head days later.

The characters are instantly lovable, weirdly relatable, and played with such precision and charm that you forget they're actors - it feels like you're eavesdropping on real chaos. And the writing? Absolutely top-tier. Every episode zips by with whip-smart dialogue, hilarious set pieces, and a surprising amount of heart.

But what really blew me away was the direction. The pacing, the visual timing of the jokes, the stylish flourishes - it's clear this isn't just a funny show, it's a well-made one. Seth Rogen has crafted something that's not only hilarious but cinematic and fresh.

Hands down, one of the most original and entertaining comedies I've seen in ages. It's bold, it's brilliant, and it knows exactly what it's doing.
