Season 2 Review: It goes funnier, delves deeper, expands its own world, develops its relationships, and launches the series into even more unexpected territory than before. In other words, Wolf Like Me transforms itself — into something better and more brilliant. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Wolf Like Me is more drama than comedy, but it works either way, despite its strange premise. Much of that is thanks to Gad and Fisher, but it’s also because Forsythe has ground the show’s more supernatural elements in reality. Read full review

Season 2 Review: Wolf Like Me solidifies its surprisingly warm story about a family that rallies together despite some pretty significant baggage, not the least of which is the fact that one of them is a werewolf. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Wolf Like Me is pretty good television. It’s bad luck that it’s premiering in a time where if it’s going to be remembered, it needs to be great. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Wolf Like Me may not do enough to cement itself in memory, but it's an unexpectedly heartfelt tale about a person overcoming the inherent fear of rejection and loss in order to try for love, and what happens when someone with those same fears is willing to reach out and meet them halfway.

Season 1 Review: While the show wouldn’t introduce something so messy, so tied up in grief and horror tropes only to betray it with an overabundance of schmaltz, the eventual conclusion for both Gary and Mary feels true to its overall spirit. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Wolf takes its traumatic situation so seriously, I kept wanting it to let its hair down. [17 - 30 Jan 2022, p.9] Read full review

Auf Empfehlung einer Freundin wollte ich in diese Serie eigentlich nur mal kurz "reinschauen". Ich war aber schon nach kurzer Skepsis in den ersten Minuten ganz wunderbar positiv überrascht in welchem Wechselbad aus Freude, Mitgefühl und Spannung ich mich wiederfand. Auch wenn ich mir sehnlichst wünschte, dass dieses wundervolle Kleinod fortgeführt wird, denke ich dass es sich um eine abgeschlossene Kurzerzählung handelt. Ein echtes Juwel mit fantastischen Schauspielern. Ebenfalls positiv aufgefallen ist mir die Musik in der Serie. Damit meine ich zwar nicht die guten Tracks die ab und an zu hören sind sondern die Filmmusik. Alles wirkt sehr am Puls der Zeit. Richtig gut gemacht Amazon und Abe Forsythe. Vielen vielen Dank für diese richtig gute Unterhaltung :)… Expand

"Wolf Like Me" (S01, 6 eps, 1/2hr, Peacock) is an engaging tale of a hapless woman with the curse of the werewolf. Isla is great in the title role as a widow, and Josh is cast well as "Gary", also hapless as a widower with a young special-needs daughter.

And yes, it's a love story, kind of a weird, non-traditional one, but yeh, if you're into romance then you'll like. The problem with the series is that it's done on a shoestring budget, so scenes are long and drawn out, the pace is pretty slow. You get no VFX till the finale and then only about 1-min, seriously. The rest of the "reveal" in the series is done via suspense, urgency, music, sound FX, and the like. I would imagine subsequent seasons would provide his and her backstories but without a much bigger budget and much faster pace, I'm just not interested further.… Expand
