What Are the Critics Saying About Somebody Somewhere Season 1?
Somebody Somewhere Season 1 has an official critics rating of 100% and an average audience score of 91% on Rotten Tomatoes.
Lili Loofbourow from Slate writes, “Somebody Somewhere is, despite some depressive trappings, a shockingly optimistic series whose small but frankly rather revolutionary thesis is that you can not only go home again but find a way to actually belong.”
Vulture’s Kathryn VanArendonk says, “Everett is fantastic. Even with strong performances from Hiller as Joel and Mike Hagerty as Sam’s dad, Ed, Somebody Somewhere lives and dies with Everett’s remarkable tenderness toward this other, imagined version of herself.”
Daniel D’Addario from Variety writes, “A comedy that finds a way to grace only after establishing pain at its heart.”
