What to Know

Critics Consensus

Reverie's tech-fable premise feels too familiar, but solid performances add a layer of humanity that keeps it from sinking under the weight of its influences.

It's not clear where Reverie will head next, but that uncertainty is part of the fun, and we're willing to go on this journey of endless possibilities as long as the show can keep the creativity coming. Go to Full Review
