User Reviews
Watchseries; Not only is it the best new show to binge, it is specifically designed to binge. Russian Doll possess the dark grey tone of 'A Hand Maids Tail,' the existential humor of 'The Good Place,' and the twistedness of 'Black Mirror.' Russian doll, with an all female writing, and directing team evolves beyond the hint of gender non conformity, to a level of gender non compliance, or maybe even non existence. Russian doll is a true, deep, dark, intelligent masterpiece. Russian dolls transcends time, morality, gender and genres. The secret to its brilliance is within the mood, because although you are witnessing the darkest moments of these characters many timelines, the story maintains a somber innate sense of humor. It is truly the most engaging and entertaining show on Netflix.

Russian Doll watchseries. Natasha Lyonne is everything. She is a true actor who is really talented regarding acting. She is a master of comedy, and this show is perfect for having a very entertaining watching session. The writing of the series is good and the inclusion of the Jewish culture in NYC is very nice. Elizabeth Ashley's performance is also mesmerizing. Can not wait for season two!
Natasha Lyonne is a genius. This show is incredible and a must see. The talent from Lyonne and the rest of the cast in first class and I strongly believe this will be one of, if not the best show to air on Netflix this year!
After two episodes I was hooked. I did get a bit scared at a point, but I'm a wuss. Really enjoyable all throughout. Doesn't really have anything to do with Groundhog day, apart from the timeloop thing. Reviewers who claim so haven't watched more than 1 episode and shouldn't be taken seriously.
In semi-typical fashion it started a little slow in interest for me but I watched the first episode and said,"Ok, one more..." And then of course you get the obligatory, "Well, I HAVE to see what happens next.." which is followed by, "Well, who the hell is THIS character?" And then of course the reaction of, " Oh Hell Naw!" Which proceeds the ever popular, "ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?" But then you get the "Oh I got this" episode. Only to be smacked by the " Whoa.... didn't see THAT coming" show. Which all is summed up with "More please.."
bravo ðŸ‘ðŸ¾Netflix, Natasha Lyonne, Amy Poehler & Russian Doll ðŸ‘ðŸ¾ðŸ‘ðŸ¾ðŸ‘ðŸ¾ðŸ‘ðŸ¾

I don't usually write reviews but I ended up staying up all night/morning watching this. I don't have much to say as I don't want to spoil anything. But the acting is great, the humour is great and the mystery is really interesting and will keep you interested from episode to episode. Highly recommend.
