Dave D @DFDeLuca Mar 15 The Sixth Sense notwithstanding, everything M. Night Shymalan touches turns to crap. Plotless, plodding, overwrought, underdone. I would give it zero stars but the cinematography is top notch, and the score is haunting. The actors becomes caricatures before the first season ends, and they stay that way throughout. A worthless waste of time. See more Meï C @RT78591847 Mar 15 Painfully got to the end of this show. Fortunately, the episodes are only 25–30 minutes long, what a bore. Don't do what I did and go on Reddit to try to find some answers. The entire sub is a giant cope about Dorothy being a "strong and independent woman," when in reality she is an unlikable character from start to finish and a bad mother who literally killed her son. This was a giant waste of time. See more James J. @dbos1545 Mar 13 Thoroughly enjoyable ride. Really well crafted and executed. And they stuck the landing. See more Marco L @decatur555 Nov 23 (CASTELLANO) Servant me ha dejado revuelto durante días. No por los sustos —que los tiene— sino por esa sensación de incomodidad que te va metiendo poco a poco. Yo pensaba que iba a ser "otra serie de Shyamalan", misteriosa, con giros raros… pero esto es otra cosa. Es más macabra, más íntima, más enfermiza, como si alguien hubiera cogido un drama familiar y lo hubiese dejado pudriéndose en un sótano durante meses. Y yo, que soy muy de engancharme cuando una historia va por ahí, me tragué las cuatro temporadas seguidas. Lo que más sorprende es que todo pasa dentro de una casa. Pero es suficiente. La cocina, el pasillo, el salón… todo empieza a deformarse, a cargarse de tensión, como si las paredes también estuvieran metidas en el juego. A veces quería pausar un capítulo solo para respirar un poco, porque entre el sonido, las miradas, los silencios y esa forma de mover la cámara, hay momentos en los que parece que algo está a punto de romperse. Los actores son una locura. Aquí nadie interpreta "normal". Todos están como torcidos, como si escondieran algo que les duele o que les da miedo decir. Lauren Ambrose está increíble, pero lo que hace Nell Tiger Free es otro nivel. Da igual si sonríe, si cocina, si mira por la ventana… siempre parece que sabe algo que tú no. Y eso te deja intranquilo desde el primer capítulo. La serie tiene altibajos, sí. Hay temporadas donde parece que el misterio se estira un poco más de la cuenta, y algún episodio que avanza menos. Pero incluso en esos momentos, el clima que crea es tan opresivo que no puedes parar. Es de esas series que funcionan más por atmósfera que por respuestas. Y eso, si entras en su juego, es adictivo. Hay escenas que son directamente duras. No sangrientas, no explícitas, sino… incómodas. Morbosas. De esas que te hacen pensar "esto no debería estar viéndolo" pero no quitas la mirada. Y cuando llega el final, con toda la tensión acumulada, te deja una mezcla rara entre alivio y vacío. No es una serie para todo el mundo. No intenta gustar. Va a su ritmo, a su oscuridad y a su tono. Pero si conectas con ella, como me ha pasado a mí, es de las que se te quedan pegadas en la cabeza, incluso cuando ya la has terminado. (ENGLISH) Servant lingered with me for days. Not because of the jump scares —those are there— but because of this slow, creeping discomfort that settles under your skin. I expected "another Shyamalan mystery," with weird twists and big reveals, but this show plays in a different league. It’s more intimate, more twisted, almost rotten in a way that feels unsettling. And once it gets you, it’s impossible to stop. Everything happens inside one house, and somehow that’s enough. The kitchen, the hallway, the living room… every corner starts to feel off, as if the rooms themselves were becoming part of the nightmare. Sometimes I paused just to breathe, because between the camera work, the sound, the silences and those looks that last a second too long, it all builds up like a pressure cooker. The actors are phenomenal. No one here plays "normal." Everyone looks worn out, guilty, scared, or all three at the same time. Lauren Ambrose is fantastic, but Nell Tiger Free is on another level —just watching her stand still is uncomfortable. She always feels like she knows something the audience doesn’t. Yes, the show has ups and downs. Some episodes stretch the mystery more than necessary. But even when not much happens, the atmosphere keeps you glued to the screen. Servant works more on mood than answers, and if you enter its rhythm, it’s addictive. Some scenes are genuinely hard to watch —not violent, just… disturbing. And by the time the ending arrives, you’re left with a strange mix of relief and emptiness. It’s not a show made for everyone, but if you connect with its darkness, it stays with you long after it’s over. See more Servant B @RT80700205 Aug 12 Best show ever created on Apple TV . Masterpiece See more George S @RT90334293 06/01/2025 So it turns out the creators of Servant decided to wrap things up after four seasons and it really shows. Despite the strong cast and beautifully crafted atmosphere, the final season felt rushed and full of plot holes. Events started happening with little logic or buildup, almost like they were just trying to tick boxes and get to the end. For me, the ending was especially disappointing. One of the most important moments like the “fall of Jericho's walls” sequence was reduced to a scream and a vague, underwhelming confrontation. It lacked emotional weight and payoff. What should have been a climax felt more like a messy sprint to the finish line. The actors were outstanding throughout, and the show’s mood and tension were consistently top-notch. But the writing? More holes than a slice of European cheese. A frustrating end to a series that once promised so much. See more Read all reviews
