Forever: Season 1

"Though its first episode tries hard to convince us otherwise, there’s really no way to talk about “Forever” without talking about its capital t Twist."

"It’s a narratively nimble show that’s thematically about routine, emotional fidelity and the possibility, or impossibility, of reinvention."

"Unique and intriguing — no spoilers beyond that."

"It’s Rudolph’s performance, though, that hints at the show’s grander ambitions."

"Having seen the series, Alan Yang and Matt Hubbard’s desire for secrecy makes sense. These eight episodes of “Forever” form a delicate soap bubble of a season, one that might easily be popped by coarse “it’s [blank] meets [blank]” comparisons."

"There’s a sly sense of humor and a Spike Jonze-esque filmmaking style that engages right from the jump, especially if you’re the kind of person who’s into that sort of Spike Jonze-y, relationship-driven, indie-spirited sort of thing."
