Calls

A compelling and tense series of tales with just the right balances of individuality, story arc and reference backs.

I found it visually compelling, with the use of graphics adding a narrative that I find difficult to describe, yet completely wrapped up in.

Part of the effect of the visuals is to hold you to the screen. This is the closest I've been to combining a book, a radio play and a piece of tv. Bravo!

This is a podcast with some random images added to make it on TV. Not sure the idea is good, would have definitely been better as sound-only. I really enjoyed the first season: good, original, well performed, and full of surprises. Seasons 2 and 3 are trying to add a bit of visual information but miserably fail. The acting in those two last seasons is not so good, the story is just complete nonsense, the ending is a shipwreck. Stick to season 1 if you don't want to be disappointed.

Really enjoyed this - kind of a twilight zone version of listening to people calling 911? It's short, you'll finish in one evening, and I don't think it will stay with me to forever, but it was very engaging in the moment and I kept clicking next.

One person said in their review oh, they decided they didn't need actors.....who do they think performed the calls? I have to imagine the ease of making this show during a pandemic helped a bit, though obviously the French version predated our current situation.

I rarely write reviews but felt I had to for this. It's not so much a TV show or a podcast. It's new, and it's different. I watched the whole show today and it was an absolutely fantastic experience that left me wanting for more. Apple have done really well bringing this to us.

I hope they do something similar or there's a second season. I was gripped from start to finish and will definitely be recommending this to my friends and family.

So this show should be on a radio station or a podcast! There is no video in this show and it's all audio from made up phone calls which is incredibly lame idea! I couldn't keep watching this. I am literally staring at a screen listening to people talk on a phone call. This is blatantly absurd! ONE STAR!!!!!!
