Season 1 Review:
The first half of the eight-episode season errs toward the procedural-monster-case-of-the-week style that something like “Doctor Who” has long leaned upon, and it works. ... The second half, however, opens the story up into something more complex and conspiratorial ... The loss of the self-contained episode frameworks noticeably slackens the show’s grip on its own specific universe. And yet, the season moves briskly enough that it’s hard to fault its detours too much. Eight episodes are just enough to spend some time in its world, and the spiritual one lurking beyond.

Season 1 Review:
The problem with Truth Seekers is that it’s a 21st century Amazon Prime comedy-horror that not so secretly wants to be an unnerving BBC kids caper circa 1978 and generally lacks any deeper ambitions. Frost and Pegg will never not be likeable together. It’s just a pity Truth Seekers isn’t that bit funnier and scarier.
