Staged

As we are entering another stay at home lock-down, in the middle of a dark snowy winter - thank god for this engaging pair of clowns. Love, love, love this show

Both David and Michael are phenomenal in Staged. Guests were wonderful surprise. Intelligent and brilliant show. I enjoyed all six episodes and really hope for some more episodes.

IMDb is one of my most used apps; I love it. However, I've always skipped past their [consistent, persistent] prompts to create an account because I generally can't be bothered nor haven't been duly compelled to sign up. BUT! "Staged" is so funny and entertaining I wanted to rate and review it.

I stumbled across the show while my family was out on errands and I could watch something they may not be as interested in - I'll be making them watch this anyway, at least passively because it's going to be on when they're around.

The writing is endlessly funny and the performances hilarious. It feels like such a cheeky peek into the lives of these actors and those around them; I hope they enjoy each other's company as much as the show intimates they do. The concept is novel (not coronavirus pun intended), the chemistry superb, the writing witty, and I can't wait to see more from Tennant and Sheen (or Sheen and Tennant...) along with the special guest appearances from so many familiar, fantastic faces. Simply brilliant!

I have laughed so hard at this show & smiled my biggest smiles. It is so clever & the portrayals are so unique & entertaining/endearing. Sorry for complimenting David a little more, as Michael is phenomenal, too, but I have seen David's serious roles & this show is such a new role for me to see him in. The guest stars have been so great, too. My husband died a couple of years ago very suddenly & I so wish he were here to watch this with me. Thank you all for the laughter that I get to experience from way down deep, a new personal best in belly laughs! I clicked on "Submit" and my review isn't long enough. Sadly I can't find the words to sufficiently express how much I enjoy and appreciate this wonderful creative work. The language I speak/write in does not have the words I need. I don't know if anyone connected to the show reads these reviews but the most important thing I want to convey is how much I thank you all for giving me some of my best laughs ever!

I don't know whether it's because the isolation of shutdown/quarantine is so relatable, but I haven't laughed this hard in ages. David & Michael/Michael & David (IYKYK) were superb at nailing the experience. So much nuance & detail - I'm watching again to catch it all. I've always liked Tennant, but wasn't that familiar with Sheen - now huge fans of both.

Highly, highly recommend.
