Season 1 Review: Rich’s roundabout way with dark punchlines, catching you on the way out the funeral home door, are just as weird and delicious as ever. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Its short run makes Workers not a particularly Earth-shattering series. But it's a charming, chipper story that suggests humans are inevitably good. Read full review

Season 2 Review: There are many more imaginative and creatively challenging comedies in circulation that offer complete escapes from the here and now. There's also a place for a nimble excursion like this, one that reminds us in the plainest and least embellished terms that yearning for a return to the way things were is at best foolhardy, and at worst risks plunging us into a time of restricted possibility, ignorance, plague and really foul air quality.

Season 3 Review: Miracle Workers: Oregon Trail, the show’s third season, is the first without Rich as showrunner, and at least in the latest iteration’s first episode, “Hittin’ the Trail,” it certainly seems as though Miracle Workers is trying to find its own voice without Rich and struggling to do so.

Season 1 Review: Rich and company show the gears, the ingredients and the packaging. More mystery, as Radcliffe knows, is always a good thing. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Buscemi is wasted on subpar material. So is Radcliffe for that matter. Perky side characters played by Geraldine Viswanathan and Karan Soni have potential, but again, the mediocre material holds them back and lets the mind wander to better shows, particularly one less interested in heaven and more interested in earth (and aliens).

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Brilliant show, in addition to a dynamic cast. Miracle Workers delivers a refreshing story. The plot of the show brings the creativeness and humor even further. Daniel Radcliffe is funny and masterful in his role and its complexity given the different scenarios the show offers us. The whole cast works in perfect harmony to deliver many laughs and keep you guessing what sort of new witty dark scenario comes next in this gem that delivers some hilarious chaos each episode.… Expand

The show has so many things going for it - The premise is unique, The cast is great, and it can be genuinely funny without relying on a laugh track to push a punch line. That being said, It's not without its flaws.
