    Quiz is absolutely fine. It's a super watchable 3 hours and is very well written, acted and filmed. Michael Sheen is very fun to watch and is not the focus thank goodness. The show attempts to be ambiguous-ish about if the cheaters actually did the cheat or not, and it seems obvious that they did cheat, but honestly I think it's great that they cheated and mostly got away with it.

It's just a game show; media steals people's labor all the time so it doesn't really matter.… Expand

    Quiz isn’t exactly a heavy lift for the viewer; it’s only 3 parts — though probably would be better as 2 — and is about a scandal that has more silly elements (a lot of coughing, for instance) than serious ones.

    A polished production with strong performances that’s always incredibly watchable. Ultimately however, I’m not exactly sure what James Graham’s script, based on his play of the same name, expects us to take away from it, and the muddled perspective sometimes hold back what could have been a stronger piece about spectacle and obsession.

    A superb drama. ... Quiz is everything McMillion$ should’ve been: propulsive, efficiently told drama that boils down a lorry full of facts to the simple 50:50 question: Did they or didn’t they?
