Murray C Feb 12 If you watch all 8 episodes of this hoping for some resolution you'll be disappointed. There is none. The wafer thin plot remains inscrutable until the very end. Despite it's lack of any kind of coherent storyline, this remains watchable for some good performances, topped by Christoph Walz who is superb as ever.

Made me not know who to trust, and want to know what would happen next. The acting was incredibly good, specifically, Craig’s fiancée, Patti, Patrice (ex boyfriend of Elaine), and even the jovial secretary delivering churros and drinks to Patoff. But… the best acting goes to the following: I have to highlight Christoph Waltz’s (Regus Patoff) acting and character. He was boss-energy cool. I couldn’t take him seriously as a ruthless boss who comes out of nowhere to run the terms of a failing video game company. He’s charming, playful, sarcastic, and annoying, all at once, it was hard to hate him. I wanted to be on his side. Nate Wolf (Craig) had the most real expressions, and natural acting. I felt his character, the frustration of everything not working out for him, for people riding all over him. Brittany O Grady, who played Elaine acted well as an annoying, arrogant, snobby person who wants to get her way. Overall, this was a show that I could watch again, and would want a second season of. See more Joan C @JoeTheGuy Nov 8 Waltz is superb, but the complete series leave too much things in the air, some characters are well developed but the lack of depth ruins it all, no chance for a second season, for me it was losing the time. No purpose fulfilled. Maybe it is a critic, ok, but do not lose 4 hours of your time, you already know laboral world stinks. See more David C 03/22/2024 Christoph Waltz is absolutely brilliant in his performance in the consultant. See more Michael D 03/12/2024 The Consultant is an absolute whirlwind of a show. Hovering between thrilling suspense and mind-bending science fiction, it adds a generous sprinkling of absurdity for good measure. Picture it as a hybrid of The Office and a surreal acid trip—utterly captivating in its bizarre charm. Despite its wild premise, the series maintains a coherent narrative that keeps you hooked from start to finish. With Christoph Waltz, known for his stellar performances in Tarantino films, leading the charge, you're in for a treat. Here's to hoping for a second season to dive even deeper into this fantastical world! See more Dhillon P 01/04/2024 While the show kept me quite entertained throughout, I felt it could have led to a much more thrilling conclusion. By the end of the final episode I still had questions in my mind that were not answered. Acting I thought was great for the most part, although Christoff Waltz was the main reason for that. I did not feel my time was wasted but I won't recommend it to a friend neither. See more Read all reviews
