Critic Reviews
The TimesSep 11, 2024
Season 1 Review:
There is an obvious grotesque absurdity to many of her moments that cannot help but prompt uneasy, horrified laughter. As the series progresses the sheer oddness of the setting becomes more familiar, and the show can breathe with a lot more ease than the spore-phobic Vernham can. But it is most effective, and affecting, in its darker moments.

Season 1 Review:
There are some good lines (the Succession-esque “His profits are fucked like a spring donkey”) and some moments that, however unsubtle, cannot help but raise a smile. .... But overall, the comedy and the drama fall flat. The scattershot aim at everything and nothing leaves the viewer groping for sense and meaning. It feels like a waste of a very good opportunity and a large number of very, very good people.

Season 1 Review:
As the series goes on, changing its spots, the fate of its protagonists becomes less compelling and (within a range of unpredictability) more obvious; the comedy fades and one disinvests from the drama. It’s a sum that’s less than its disparate parts. But I did like the parts.

Season 1 Review:
A rare misfire that's too heavy-handed and cynically predictable to score as political satire and too silly to resonate as an allegory of dangerously despotic government. Luckily, this Regime is ruled by Kate Winslet. [11 - 31 Mar 2024, p.5]

Season 1 Review:
"The Regime", is a series of contradictions, wildly inconsistent in the course of a single episode. If you can get through the sluggish bits (particularly the last three of its six episodes), there's a lot of fun to be had until the bitter end of this absurd ride with Winslet and the rest of the talented cast.

Season 1 Review:
Despite the first-class production design, the game efforts of the ensemble cast and some admirably big swings for the fences, “The Regime” isn’t one of those series where you to love to watch people who are terrible, a la the aforementioned “Succession” and “Veep,” or “The Sopranos” or “Breaking Bad.” In this case, we’re stuck with a group of mostly loathsome individuals who commit the cardinal sin of not being all that interesting while they’re being horrible.

Season 1 Review:
The Regime may be timely, but it’s not particularly funny, edifying, or insightful. .... Elena can be confounding, but in Winslet’s hands, she’s never boring, and Riseborough’s Agnes — the only character with a modicum of empathy — makes the series’ overall misanthropy a touch more bearable.
