Nicholas Barber Independent (UK) 04/18/2019
Five series into Britain's most brilliant sitcom, and Peep Show's writers, Jesse Armstrong and Sam Bain, are still finding fresh ways to heap humiliation and disgrace on to their flatsharing anti-heroes. Go to Full Review
Sam Wollaston Guardian 04/18/2019
There were an awful lot of treats shoehorned into this last episode of the series - laughter, pain, joy, tears. I did almost cry at one point, at Jeremy's mid-life crisis. That is a sign of good comedy. Go to Full Review

4/5
The show continues to be wonderfully observed, though it's the characters' hilarious descent into dark, dark places that make it so compelling. Never was the interior monologue used to grubbier, or better ends. Go to Full Review

03/27/2022 Peep Show is one of the most hilarious and unique shows of all time. Definitely one of my top 5 or even 3 greatest TV shows of all time. The comedy is top notch and it proves you dont have to have a big budget with lots of effects to have an amazing show. So well written, David Mitchell and Robert Webb are gods of comedy. Every season is incredible, none of them slack at all. It's so quotable, I love every minute! See more 02/17/2018 one of the funniest shows ever. See more Read all reviews
