Critics Consensus

Though Servant's slithering mystery often wanders into dark, crowded corners, its claustrophobic atmosphere and powerful performances build enough tension to keep viewers hooked.

Placing time and distance between each episode may mask the sad discovery that very little happens in the first season of Servant -- certainly not enough to justify more than a two-hour jaunt into upper middle-class ennui.

Richard Roeper

Chicago Sun-Times

Like us, Julius can't resist opening doors better left shut, listening to conversations better left unheard and seeing things one can never un-see.

Rated: 3.5/4

You can focus on the acting, or genre ace Michael Gioulakis excellent, atmospheric cinematography or that the show is, at times, just so riveting in its shrouded nature.

Rated: C+

A Simple Vista

With short episodes, a single location and a quartet of characters, its creator has managed to create a solid, ambiguous and disturbing universe in which we immerse ourselves hypnotically from the first chapter [Full review in Spanish]

Rated: 5/5

I didn't get hooked, I find the treatment of the pivotal theme of the doll used for therapeutic purposes, family intrigues, the omnipresence of the religion and religious worship boring, but the actors are excellent, also for those who also got hooked on the plot, this series must be worth seeing, also because it does not lack other qualities. In fact, it is almost a mystical story between witchcraft and the fantastic special Catholic Bobos!
