TV Guide Magazine Matt Roush

Feb 9, 2017

The lines between human and artificial intelligence and empathy (or lack thereof) blur in fascinating and often devastating ways. [13-26 Feb 2017, p.19]

Tim Goodman

Feb 13, 2017

Humans, which is plate-spinning a number of compelling character-development stories in addition to the big-picture themes, is a series that is primed for a larger audience as it improves on its already impressively complex and nuanced story. A welcome return. Read full review

Humans may lack the visual pizazz or expressive symbolism to bring its bigger ideas into greater relief, but it’s becalmed yet thoughtful aesthetic actually works perfectly in tune with its subtext. Read full review

Feb 13, 2017

It avoids the present contemporary clichés of dystopias or apocalyptic landscapes, opting instead for something quieter. It might be too slow or too dry for some viewers--and the story may take some unnatural turns-- but like some of the best science-fiction out there, the patience of the attentive audience is rewarded.

Humans has delivered a second season that demonstrates a full, imaginative expansion of its narrative. Read full review

Derek Lawrence

Feb 11, 2017

The synth family of Mia (Gemma Chan) & Co. continues to drive the show's most interesting aspects, while the nonrobot Hawkins clan drags the action to a halt. Perhaps it's time for a new title. [17 Feb 2017, p.54]

Emily VanDerWerff

Feb 13, 2017

A story demands that it be led by its most compelling characters, and in most cases, that means the oppressed, not the oppressors. Humans can be intriguing, even enthralling. But it’s always held back by its title. Read full review

'Humans' is not as complex as 'Westworld' but it surely can be just as exciting. The story flows gently and the characters are absolutely magnificent. And, most importantly, it is extremely addicting.

First Season was OK, but the premiere of the second season sets this up to be a really bad drama, giving up any pretense of being science fiction.
