TV Guide MagazineMatt RoushJul 19, 2011
Season 1 Review: The episodes play out in a series of uneven vignettes: droll, ironic and twisted. It's great to see Kudrow back on TV, but this visually static and comically stunted gimmick wears thin pretty quickly. Read full review

Season 1 Review: While Web Therapy is certainly clever and occasionally funny, it lacks both the nerve and verve of "The Comeback." Read full review

Season 1 Review: You end up with a visually uninteresting half-hour filled with rambling conversations, as the actors struggle to advance what little story there is while slipping in the all-too-occasional funny remark. Read full review

Season 1 Review: While the project had its devotees in its original form, the first four legs of a 10-episode flight feel stilted, claustrophobic and only fitfully amusing as stitched together for Showtime. Read full review
