Summary
Reviewers say 'Your Friends & Neighbors' explores themes of wealth, privilege, and moral decay, often through a satirical lens. Jon Hamm's performance is frequently praised, with many noting his ability to bring depth and vulnerability to his character. However, criticisms include the show's implausible plot, lack of character development, and excessive use of sex scenes. Some reviewers find the series shallow and unengaging, while others appreciate its sharp writing and complex characters. The show's portrayal of the wealthy elite and their moral dilemmas is a central theme, though it divides opinions on its effectiveness and relatability.
Featured reviews
I have to say I really enjoyed this series even more than I expected to. Besides Apple TV always putting out bangers, I'm a fan of both Jon Hamm and Olivia Munn so I was looking forward to this since the moment first heard about it. I'm glad it didn't disappoint. The thing that did surprise me though is it's funnier than I expected. Your Friends and Neighbors is about a hedge fund manager (Hamm) who gets fired in disgrace. Not knowing what to do next he resorts to stealing from his Westmont Village neighbors. Besides the money and valuables he steals he also comes across a bunch of secrets his wealthy friends have that prove to be very dangerous. I definitely recommend this for anyone looking for a fun new show to watch.
Well, what can I say?
I've just binged two-thirds of the first season in two days and found it surprisingly fun to watch.
It's a gripping, intelligent and emotionally rich series that exceeded all expectations. With sharp writing, subtle tension and complex characters, it paints a compelling picture of suburban life, where secrets simmer just beneath the surface.
Jon Hamm delivers one of his best performances to date - nuanced, charismatic and deeply human. The entire cast is excellent, but Hamm anchors the show with quiet power and emotional depth.
Beautifully shot and perfectly paced, this is a must-watch for fans of slow-burn drama.
If you're a film junkie like myself then you'll appreciate the time and effort that Jonathan Tropper and everyone else put in to make this happen.
I enjoyed it. Not my place to say where it could have been improved. It is what it is.
Thank you.

This show isn't about friendship or suburban bonds - it's about the vast, echoing emptiness in between. The characters wear irony like armor, laugh through despair, and live in glossy homes that hide rotting lives. Every scene scratches at something uncomfortable: the truth that beneath polite smiles and well-trimmed hedges, there's loneliness, fear, and quiet collapse. Even the humor here doesn't offer relief - it's more like a nervous laugh at your own reflection. It's a comedy that leaves you unsettled - and strangely seen. Which makes real life feel even emptier. Uneasy. Almost lonely. Almost eerie.
John hamm makes everything he's in better. From good omens to fargo to the princess bride home movie.
Same goes for hoon lee- warrior and banshee wouldn't have been the same without him.
Your friends and neighbors is a coherent and sophisticated romp through the hypocrisy and falsities of the country club elite.
I like most everything about this show. An issue i have with it is the music though. It's terrible- from the theme song to every whiny hipster ballad conclusion, i can not stand the music they choose for this show. The original orchestral compositions are fine, but whoever is picking the pop songs needs a new career.

I started watching this show with no expectations and very soon it took me in. A great, smooth and funny John Hamm and the rest of the cast is also well chosen.
Basically the story has a lot of potential and could become something huge if the surprises keep coming. Up to this point the storytelling is subtle and intriguing, although I don't like the part with the troublesome kids, which I think is just too worn out. But besides that, it has its moments, nice one liners and of course the superb narration of Coop which always come into play at the right time.
I believe Apple TV just landed another great show.
