Season 1 Review:
The series is at its best in the earlier episodes, when we're getting to know the characters, the mystery is in its early stages and we're getting drip-fed twists. Unfortunately, it feels as though the series, or certainly the book upon which it was based, doesn't know where to stop in this department.

Season 1 Review:
Disappointingly, going by the first four episodes of The Perfect Couple, it’s a tad soft-boiled. For this sort of thing to work, as with The White Lotus, the script has to be dagger-sharp, merciless. When that attitude isn’t there in the writing, you sense timidity.

Season 1 Review:
None of the performances are breakouts, but at least Reynor and Fanning have a delightful time playing a cocky married duo. But it honestly almost feels like the cast wanted a swanky vacation in Nantucket, and the results come off as confounding as some of Kidman’s recent TV choices.

Season 1 Review:
“The Perfect Couple” has a thesis no one buys into, a dated grasp of media and scandal in the 2020s and characters that are more cartoons than flesh and blood folks with foibles. It’s a TV version of a bad “beach book,” making one wish one had spent these six hours doing something else, preferably on a beach.
