The Studio

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 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.

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.

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.

Other reviewers on point, Apple has done it again. I'm in desperate need of comedy, good comedy, and Apple has it. I binged watched 1st three episodes.

Thinking about the show as a metaphor for life and work. Some of us are always trying to please, make people feel good, avoid confrontation until it blows up...we also get to see an environment few of us live in and I relish the fast pace, scenery, sets, and antique cars. Outstanding cast, always loved Rogen, but Catherine O'Hara and Kathryn Hahn esp. Bring the explosive energy and grit. When I finished Shrinking I needed a new comedy, rewatched Schitt's Creek, doesn't disappoint, The Studio has it.
