Season 1 Review: The rare show that feels inscrutable at first and eventually seduces you to such an intense degree that you would eagerly die on the nearest available hill defending it. Read full review

Season 1 Review: “Mrs. Davis” earns your attention, and if it occasionally floods the zone with an abundance of imagination, a surfeit sure beats a deficit when it comes to new ideas in today’s TV. Even better, the limited series offers answers and closure. Read full review

Season 1 Review: There are impressive performances all around, but Gilpin’s is something beyond that; she’s utterly natural and present in every moment of a role that asks much of her. ... “Mrs. Davis” is complicated, but neatly organized. And the emotional arc is always intelligible, and very, very satisfying. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Mrs. Davis is big, bold, and loud in both its ideas and its execution, with some pretty stunning set-pieces across its eight-episode run. While there’s a fair bit of chaos in the mix, and maybe a sense that the show could have edited out one or two elements for greater cohesion, there’s a lot of joy to be found in the mess.

Season 1 Review: While the first episode of Mrs. Davis took a bit of effort to wrap our minds around, we were hooked on it by the end, thanks in no small part to Betty Gilpin’s lead performance. Read full review

Season 1 Review: While it’s impressive that Mrs. Davis stays as consistently surprising as it does, it’s hard to know precisely what to make of it by the season’s end — or if even the creators know what they meant to say with it. On the other hand, those willing to embrace the ride for what it is are in for a singular experience. Read full review

The Daily Beast Nick Schager

Apr 18, 2023

Season 1 Review: That’s not to say that Mrs. Davis runs out of steam; it continues piling on the lunacy until the life-and-death end, along the way providing enough recurring motifs, signifiers, pop-culture references, biblical flourishes, and quippy one-liners to keep one perpetually stunned and surprised. It’s just that going this overboard ultimately has the effect of minimizing the impact of any single facet of its story. Read full review

A brilliant show about AI and faith. Because it was about a nun, I hesitated to watch this, but I am happy that I did. Really funny, amazing and spot on! Made me laugh and cry! ❤️

First episode is good, and it gets better from there. It's fresh. It's smart. It's contrarian, but in a fun way.

This is a pretty rambling show with unusual acting and a good story line. Watching the show is like watching stream-of-conscientious TV; very disorienting.
