Masterful employment of rotoscoping. ... “Undone” is a fantastic, humorous tragedy that refuses to unstick itself from our attention very easily. ... Turn it on and let yourself go. Read full review

Transfixing and lushly beautiful. ... “Undone” has humor and story enough to make it more than an art object. ... It is magnificent art, a world opulently realized from its oil-painted backgrounds to its sound design. You don’t watch this show so much as fall into it. ... There’s no place like “Undone.” Read full review

Bold and gorgeous. ... Undone’s singularly captivating visual style is always in service of its deeply affecting story. Read full review

Judy Berman

Sep 11, 2019

Undone fully integrates its genre elements and its hot topics—science vs. religion, biracial identity, contemporary sociopolitical malaise—into the story’s structure. ... Undone embraces a form of speculative storytelling that’s closer to mythology. Its rotoscoped world might be merely a fun-house mirror of reality, but if you’re brave enough to gaze into it, a mind-expanding adventure awaits. Read full review

Undone is so consistently and intriguingly eye-popping as an advanced sensory experience that it's remarkably easy to forgive its failings on more simple narrative levels. ... The potential is still there. For now, there's so much that works here that I've made quick peace with the fact that this is a whodunit in which the answer doesn't yet matter to me at all.

It’s a marvelous achievement in design and among the most visually stunning things you’ll see on television this year. But when you look past the gorgeous presentation and into the substance, Undone proves more hit-or-miss. Read full review

Incredible show, interesting characters and a very unique plot. This is a show that is very binge able and is only 30 min a episode so it makes the show very easy to finish.

Just try to learn as little as possible about the show before watching it because it is better when you go into knowing almost nothing.

This part is slightly a spoiler so be warned:
The ending is so good. It makes you question everything that happened prior on show.… Expand

Amazing, original non-linear storytelling. The animated live action is integral to the story and looks terrific. The best new show of the year.

Undone is beautiful, creative and thoughtful. Jumping into the world feels disorienting, and unlike many shows that "you have to watch most of the season before it gets good" this builds every episode, allowing many of the mysteries to be solved while delving into new ones.

I give it to the animators for making a beautiful series, but outside the crazy story, the lead was so obnoxious and self-absorbed, I can't imagine why anyone would ever want to be around her.

This series looks amazing, but the story is incredibly boring and too political. If you watch it o mute you're not losing anything.
