Season 1 Review: Lister-Jones's voice is singular and unique, creating something that goes beyond its vaguely sci-fi concept, and certainly singles itself out from the heaping handfuls of stories about infinite worlds we’ve received in the last few years. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Slip is certainly a tour de force for Zoe Lister-Jones, but it’s also funny and touching, and it may have a more positive message about marriage and long-term relationships than it seems to have at first blush. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Even if you find it easy, I suspect there is more in Slip to admire than to love. But it is undoubtedly a work of rare ambition and the product of such talent from Lister-Jones that it seems churlish not to exalt it. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The majority of the credit deserves to go to Lister-Jones, who avoids leaning into the overly-comedic or broader aspects of the performance that arguably would have been easier to play, but her fiercely committed turn still holds the whole thing together with style and substance in equal measure, ensuring that nobody will accuse the series of being a one-trick pony that’s got a cute gimmick with nothing much going on under the surface.

Season 1 Review: Slip can be arch, and it gets old watching Mae having her dimension-spanning orgasms. However, four episodes in, it’s also well performed, sparky, inventive and funny. Read full review

In a word: Fantastic. From the beginning this show is very funny, with a clever twist on a familiar sci-fi premise -- but it's not clear if it will transcend the self-satirical navel-gazing ennui of the first episode.

From the beginning this show is very funny, with a clever twist on a familiar sci-fi premise -- but it's not clear if it will transcend the self-satirical navel-gazing ennui of the first episode. Rest assured, it does. This hero's journey of self-discovery is in turns hysterical (in both senses of the term), biting, frustrating, thoughtful, sexy, moving, and ultimately life-affirming.

Halfway through the series my primary complaint was that there wasn't enough of it, but there is so much packed into each half-hour, by the end I felt 7 episodes was just right. Now I'm just sad not enough people will see it. Definitely worth sitting through a few commercials to watch on my Roku-enabled TV, or the hassle of signing up for a trial subscription.
I hesitate when I see a creator/writer/director/producer/star, but Zoe Lister-Jones pulls it off.… Expand
