The Studio

I mean it's just really good. Super funny, super fast and so much interesting (for me) commentary on the entertainment industry. The only thing that confused me is that Seth goes from a semi low-level position to a studio head, and the amount of work they do is actually insane. I mean maybe I'm the odd one out on this but I had no idea how insane that job is-and Matt didn't really seem stressed about his experience level. That doesn't really take a way from anything though, and I like the fact that they don't focus on his journey per-say but do so much cool stuff about the reality of filmmaking. The show also has me so stressed.. it's just really well made. Ok everyone else's reviews sound a lot smarter but the cast is mind blowing and I feel like this type of thing hasn't really been done before. A weird feeling you get when watching tv about making tv. No more notes.

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 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.

Seth Rogan plays as a new movie studio head in charge of film production for "Continental Studios." This show highlights the film making process and the behind the scenes chaos that occurs. Some episodes are better than others. A few laughs here and there but ultimately the film making education the audience gets with each episode is well worth the watch.

Although this is a comedy, I can imagine a lot of these episodes are inspired by real events or similar problems film makers go through. Seth Rogan does a great job with acting and casting people who sometimes play as themselves. If you like movies I think you'll find this show very interesting and eye opening.

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.
