    The Patient's sustained intensity over 10 half-hours has the sick kick of a haunting novella. [12 - 25 Sep 2022, p.11]

    Carell gives his best performance yet in "The Patient," a compelling drama that's worth sticking with through all 10 episodes.

    [Steve Carell's] career-best performance in The Patient. OK, career-best dramatic performance. ... It’s the best thriller that’s been on TV this year... and it’s about therapy. ... The series, refreshingly, abandons the trope where the serial killer is brooding, charismatic, and sexually mystifying.
