Our need for solace is acute, and “Shrinking” is meeting it with an exceptional, timely arc about taking shelter in the communities we create. Go to Full Review Wenlei Ma The Nightly (AU) Feb 10
The greatest pleasure Shrinking has gifted the audience is how it’s evolved and expanded, and has become an even more potent piece of art about kindness and compassion than Ted Lasso. Go to Full Review Ben Dowell The Times (UK) Jan 29

This third and by no means final run has become so soft and gooey it melted into a sentimental puddle. Go to Full Review Paul McGuire Grimes KSTP-TV (St. Paul, MN) Feb 12

8/10
Though there is a bit of repetition in a couple story beats, the majority of the season offers more gently funny and genuinely emotional plotlines powered by its wonderful cast. Go to Full Review Allyson Johnson But Why Tho? A Geek Community Jan 30

Mark M @MarkMant 3d I used to love this show, but Season 3 has really gone downhill for me. There’s way too much repetitive, clunky dialogue, and the acting feels the same scene after scene. At times, it honestly seems like the actors are just reading their lines. It’s become a bit of a grind to watch, which is disappointing, because I really enjoyed it before. See more Robert D. @nico_mendoza Feb 22 This season has gotten less authentic and more corny. See more Cyrus Z. @zylerzee Feb 19 The banter is too much, too clever, too contrived. No one talks like that. See more brett m @bretthi Feb 18 So the formula is bad writing and an attempt to try too hard to have everyone in tune with everyone else's feelings???? This is BS, and stop trying so hard! See more Kimberly W. @whittywhit Feb 16 Witty. Quick moving storyline. Wonderful and likably real characters. It’s like a cup of tea with a splash of whiskey before bed. See more Michael K @kennedyland Feb 10 Another show that should have ended last season. The opening scene with Michael J. Fox was great. Then it went downhill. It's one cute comment after another after another. It gets both dull and exhausting. No advancement in the characters. No growth. Just cute insults. Sorry, but that doesn't carry the show. Like I said, two seasons were enough. This is overkill. See more Read all reviews
