Seth Rogen takes the lead as Matt Remick in the new Apple TV comedy The Studio

Shows like Adolescence, Severance and Toxic Town may have all made for gripping viewing in the last few months, but let’s face it, they haven’t exactly made for the most uplifting of watches.

Fortunately, if you’re a comedy fan in need of something new to watch, it sounds like Seth Rogen might have you covered.

The Canadian star’s new series The Studio has now premiered on Apple TV , centring around a Hollywood exec who is tasked with turning around the fortunes of a flailing production company.

And not only is The Studio jam-packed with more celeb cameos than an Oscars after-party, it’s also had near-unanimous praise from critics.

Here’s a selection of what the early reviews for The Studio are saying…

The Times (5/5)

“With references to the silver screen at every turn and shot in such a way as to remind you of a golden age of cinema, the show walks a careful tightrope between silliness, satire and sentimentality with quite exceptional results. The sun may be setting on the Hollywood of old, but it has just risen on the best new comedy of the year so far.”
