In the end, the show prioritises taste over bite. But that’s no bad thing. Go to Full Review

4/5
Broadly speaking, Julia series two – like great French cuisine – gets the balance right. Go to Full Review
Robert W. Butler Butler's Cinema Scene 12/28/2023
The single best performance I’ve seen in recent months belongs to Brit actress Sarah Lancashire, who so fully embodies famed TV chef Julia Child that it’s less acting than alchemy. Go to Full Review

Jonah H @storees Oct 4 This show was so nice. Just like HBO to cancel another show with a 100% on rotten tomatoes. See more Joan K 10/22/2024 Love this show! Season 2 is just as good as season 1. I only wish there were more episodes. See more Joe C @JoeCoffee 04/02/2024 The characters had outworn their welcome by season 2. Smug with a tone that will appeal to elitists, or those wishing to be, or wanting to luxuriate in the sterile nostalgia of an America that only existed on TV. And the behind-the-scenes, inner workings of a public TV station are so dumb-downed that they border on fantasy. If that environment interests you, try the Brit series The Hour. It features better written characters whose parts aren't smothered by the star's bloated presence. See more DiCat F 02/04/2024 Sorry but switched off after episode 3 as found myself falling asleep. Was monotonous and boring. See more E B 02/02/2024 Of course it's cancelled after two seasons. It was too good for us. I don't regret my time investment. I thoroughly enjoyed the two meagre seasons & delighted in the strong storytelling, lush sets, cast & extraordinary performances all of which leave at indelible memory of rich satisfaction- which no streaming service can erase when they casually write off quality shows. The production won anyway. See more Katie P 01/25/2024 Utterly brilliant! I love this show so much. Is the literal definition of a feel good show. I want to cook, throw dinner parties, and savor life every time I watch it. It's perfection and got even better in season 2. It's a maddening shame that HBO canceled it. Yes, it's worth the watch even though there are only 2 seasons. See more Read all reviews
