DeciderJoel KellerMar 29, 2023
Season 1 Review: Celeste Barber is funny as Liv. ... We’re hoping that the support around her, from Amy and her husband, Liv’s mom and brother, as well as others, will get a little more character development. ... We’ve got confidence in writers Amy Stewart, Nick Coyle and Romina Accurso that they’ll do just that. Read full review

The GuardianRachel AroestiMar 29, 2023
Season 1 Review: Incredibly watchable – the sort of absorbing, amusing, visually slick TV that is (ironically) perfect to unwind to if you are teetering on the verge of burnout à la our protagonist, yet with enough sour bite to stop it feeling too fluffy. Read full review

The TelegraphBenji WilsonMar 29, 2023
Season 1 Review: Barber, an Aussie comedian, is dynamite in the lead, an astonishing combination of one-woman disaster flick and flashes of vulnerability that, indeed, reminds you of Waller-Bridge in Fleabag in the very best way. There's an element of TV watching-as-rubbernecking to Wellmania that makes it supremely addictive. Read full review

The Observer (UK)Barbara EllenSep 10, 2024
Season 1 Review: You’ll need to like Liv, but that’s easy enough: slapping on deodorant, lounging in Spanx, Barber exudes a crisp comic energy. While Wellmania is a bumpy ride, if you stick with it, it gets deeper. Read full review

The TimesCarol MidgleyMar 30, 2023
Season 1 Review: Parts of the script work far better than others — I’m not keen on ditzy slapstick; just a personal thing — and there is an over-reliance on fart noises (detox juices, see). ... Yet in other areas it absolutely sparkles and carries you along. Read full review
