The Studio

I kind of half watched this because the first episode was free on a service and I saw how well reviewed it was and despite not being a fan of Seth Rogen I found myself getting interest... This was the first episode you understand! Script seemed sharp and all those stellar cameos! I signed up to watch the rest of the show and after episode two I was beginning to regret it as I was rapidly losing interest. As usual with anything with Seth Rogan in it it began to get more and more over-excitable and loud and before long Seth was using his Fozzy bear voice all over the place and that's one of the things I detest about him as an actor. It has started looking like it's meant to be an inside joke made to impress planet Hollywood. I suspect the truth is far more ruthless.

The Studio is another hit in a long line of hits for Apple TV+. Apple has been absolutely killing it with all their shows and The Studio is no different. I knew this was going to be good by the cast alone. What a cast! If leads like Seth Rogen, Catherine O'Hara, Kathryn Hahn, Ike Barinholtz, and Chase Sui Wonders aren't enough, there are plenty of huge cameos like Martin Scorsese, Zac Efron, Bryan Cranston, Anthony Mackie, Charlize Theron, Paul Dano, Usher, etc. Rogen and Evan Goldberg direct all 10 episodes. This is one of the better shows to come out this year so far and I'd be shocked if this doesn't win a ton of awards come award season. The only negative is that we have to wait a week between shows because this is definitely a show that you want to binge.

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.

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.

The perfect amount of spice, intensity and filmmaking mashed with amazing cast throughout some of which aren't even actors! I should've watched sooner I've been a fan of Seth Rogen for 25 years crazy how overbearing his character is in The Studio at least episode 2. I so wish I could be on a set in any capacity except for how overwhelming it seems.

My mom has been wanting to watch this usually I'd be into this first I guess I was into other stuff for a bit The Studio is so worth it, deserving of high ratings, and most things on Apple TV are magnificent. The dialogue is so new generation, I love it all.
