The Shrink Next Door: Season 1

"Both characters are, in the end, ciphers."

"Strikes a few chords over eight episodes and holds your interest throughout..."

"The result is confusing, landing in a no-man's-land between comedy, drama and thriller."

"Mainly what held my interest in The Shrink Next Door was the myriad reasons it doesn't quite work."

"A drawn-out true-cringe story."

"If you watch The Shrink Next Door as a showcase for two extraordinary actors, you will likely have a great viewing experience. I certainly did."

"Disturbing - and not in an entertaining way."

"The series rapidly hops between decades but feels like it moves at a crawl, dulling the myriad charms of its leading cast."

"It would all seem a tad daft and overblown if it wasn't for the fact that it all really happened."

"The sheer size and nerve of the three-decade scam will keep you going to the end."

"The rinse/repeat abuse dynamic of Ike and Marty becomes an exceptionally tedious watch by series end."

"Maybe a different creative team could've done a better job adapting The Shrink Next Door, or maybe Marty Markowitz's story simply didn't need to be retold."
