Debi Enker The Age (Australia) 12/29/2023
Vibrant and richly textured, Strife is keenly in tune with its times even though it’s set a decade ago. And Keddie has again fashioned a messy, multi-faceted character who can be as irritating as she is compelling. Go to Full Review
Wenlei Ma PerthNow 12/19/2023
Evelyn is that same specific slice of feminism that Mia Freedman represents in the real world. The kind that decries problematic magazine coverlines but lacks self-awareness about how they don’t speak for or to all women but still pretends to do so. Go to Full Review

4/5
There are farcical setbacks and bittersweet breakthroughs, and Strife makes both count. Equally notable: the accomplished direction by Stuart Bowen. Go to Full Review

@RT35452349 12/19/2023 Loved it, it was smart, fast and felt authentic. Asher Keddie was amazing, the whole cast was great so no complaints there. I did have a problem with the audio however. I found it hollow in the main with music drowing out the dialogue at times which really doesn't do this kind of comedy any favours. Thought it was just me, checked everything several times throughout the first couple of episodes and finally just went with it. Haven't experienced it with any other show ever. Lost a point or 2 as a result. See more Read all reviews
