Philippa Hawker The Age (Australia) 04/18/2019
Peep Show is a saga of extreme embarrassment, of excruciatingly intimate contact with the two misguided, mismatched, inept, dark, sleazy, twisted yet disturbingly appealing central characters. Go to Full Review Sacha Molitorisz Sydney Morning Herald 04/18/2019
The writing is top-notch, as are the performances from these two relatively unfamiliar faces and their supporting cast... You'll cringe, if you aren't laughing too hard. Go to Full Review Emmett Rensin Vox 02/27/2019
Professional criticism of bleak comedy has a habit of finding something redemptive in this kind of mire: Perhaps failed love affirms friendship, or failed dreams provide a view of what's important. Go to Full Review David Berry National Post 02/27/2019
For all the absurd situations they manage to get into, the joy of the show is its moment-to-moment brilliance, the way in which an everyday situation will get turned into a piercingly funny revelation. Go to Full Review Emily Ashby Common Sense Media 02/27/2019
3/5
The funny views on relationships may or may not resonate with adult viewers' own experiences, but either way, they'll be laughing. But parents should definitely watch this one closely before giving teens the go-ahead. Go to Full Review Andrew Lewis Screen Rant 09/11/2018
It is an interesting concept and a unique spin on an ordinary premise, and the series manages to pull off the gimmick perfectly. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Craig H @DownWeGo 11/14/2024 The best British comedy of all time! See more Tristan C 04/04/2024 English humor at it's absolute best. I've watched every episode numerous times. See more Tom S @Acewrite13 12/18/2022 Insufferable. It's hard to have any patience for a couple of doofuses with absolutely no redeeming features. See more 12/07/2021 Hilarious, episode one can take some getting used to, power through to episode 2 and you'll be hooked, such a funny show! See more 01/09/2021 I grew up watching Van Damme films and enjoyed them, but was never really entertained. This show is hands down entertaining. It plays with real human insecurities as well a stereotypes and leave the viewer wanting to see what happens next. The running jokes are never stale and I really wish there were more episodes. See more 10/24/2020 There is something alarmingly honest about this series that makes you watch it obsessively, without exactly understanding why. I especially enjoyed the actors, who are hilarious, but also refreshingly common. Not the kind of people you'd expect to see on a magazine cover, if you know what I mean. See more Read all reviews
