	Media	Author	Review
		Alex Maidy JoBlo	"[4th Season Review]: From the eerie score, the subtle special effects, and the tease of the endgame, Servant is better than ever"
		Andrew Webster The Verge	"[4th Season Review]: the beginning of Servant’s final season pushes forward with the kind of confidence that at least ensures I’ll be enjoying the ride to wherever it’s actually taking me"
		Chase Hutchinson Collider	"[4th Season Review]: The end is nigh in this sinister series that continues to prove the most unsettling and uproarious of tales can come from the simplest of settings."
		Karina Adelgaard Heaven of Horror	"[4th Season Review]: You’ll really feel the horror part of this series from the start (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Brian Tallerico The Playlist	"[4th Season Review]: it has admittedly lost its narrative threads more than once, but that sense of unpredictability should make the final stretch of this marathon wicked fun"
		Saloni Gajjar AV Club	"[4th Season Review]: it returns for a chilling—but not entirely surprising—last gasp"
		Adam Lock Ready Steady Cut	"[4th Season Review]: Season four of Servant gets off to an electrifying start with inventive, stylized camera work and tense, dramatic interactions (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Clint Worthington rogerebert.com	"[4th Season Review]: The show remains committed to the pitch-black kookiness it's had since its first episode, and whether it sticks the landing or not, I wouldn't have it any other way"
		Boyd Hilton Empire	"[4th Season Review]: The final season of Shyamalan's darkly funny, deeply twisted TV horror saga confirms its status as one of his greatest achievements (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Peter Martin Screen Anarchy	"[4th Season Review]: The song remains the same, but not the players. And that makes all the difference in this particular world of captivating suspense and off-kilter horror"
		Alex Maidy JoBlo	"[3rd Season Review]: With one season left, Servant‘s third year lives up to the potential this premise started out with and will hopefully stick the landing."
		Tambay Obenson IndieWire	"[3rd Season Review]: Solid performances are the series' strength, but even the actors have no idea what this show is about."
		Karina Adelgaard Heaven of Horror	"[3rd Season Review]: If you’ve been following Servant on Apple TV+ then surely, you’ll return for season 3. If you haven’t been watching, then you might want to start now before the final season 4 (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Peter Martin Screen Anarchy	"[3rd Season Review]: The mood and atmosphere has gradually lightened, it seems to me (...) in this particular world of captivating suspense and off-kilter horror"
		Brian Tallerico rogerebert.com	"[3rd Season Review]: [It] continues To Surprise In Eerie New Chapter (...) now it feels like this twisted tale might just hold together until the finish line in its announced fourth and final season."
		Alex McLevy AV Club	"[3rd Season Review]: Shyamalan's oddball supernatural thriller balances the humor and creepiness with a much tighter, focused season"
		Kayla Cobb Decider	"[2nd Season Review]: There are no answers in 'Servant 'Season 2, only pain. In many ways that’s for the best. Few shows are as skilled at sorting through the intricate, hypocritical, and quiet forms of hurt better than this thriller"
		Brian Tallerico rogerebert.com	"[2nd Season Review]: 'Servant' circles themes without really sinking its teeth into them (...) There are still elements to admire in these seven episodes"
		Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting	"[2nd Season Review]: A compelling character-driven season that ups the ante on the gripping mystery while fearlessly getting more unhinged than ever (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Josh Bell CBR	"[2nd Season Review]: [It] is just jerking its audience around, and no amount of spooky noises or ominous pronouncements can make up for that."
		Kristen Baldwin Entertainment Weekly	"[2nd Season Review]: ['Servant'] is even darker, scarier, and funnier (...) [It] also remains a gripping mystery"
		Alex McLevy AV Club	"[2nd Season Review]: By finding its humor, Servant has figured out how to blend grotesque and grim without becoming exhausting"
		Ben Travers IndieWire	"[It] offers flashes of creepy fun and strong performances, but squanders its premise."
		Liam Mathews TV Guide	"'Servant' is far from perfect (...) But it's creepy, compulsively watchable fun, with a distinct personality. It shows that Apple is willing to make shows that are pretty dark, pretty risky (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Kristen Baldwin Entertainment Weekly	"Right now, 'Servant' is delivering the kind of giddy thrills you want from horror: Things are going from bad to worse for the Turner family, and I can’t help but enjoy it."
		Daniel D'Addario Variety	"The mood it conjures is so overwhelming, so claustrophobically creepy, that it’s easy to feel instantly stifled when an episode begins (...) Less convincing is the manner by which the story stretches on, and on."
		Steven Scaife Slant	"In similar fashion to shows like 'Twin Peaks', its control of tone and atmosphere soon becomes even more engrossing than the mystery itself (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"
		Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"It's very creepy, but maybe not especially scary, disturbing or, ultimately, satisfying."
		Jacob Oller Paste Magazine	"An unfocused yet ultimately creepy good time with enough character and charm to keep its hazy nightmare from lulling you to sleep."
		Chris Evangelista SlashFilm	"The series is quite good at conjuring up scary moments – it’s a slow-burn type of horror (...) But all that damned mystery hangs over it all, spoiling what could’ve been a strong new horror series."
		Kevin Yeoman Screen Rant	"[It] wants to be something a little different, something that excels in making its audience as uncomfortable as possible, while still making them want to come back for more."
		Alec Bojalad Den of Geek	"A good television show. But is 'good' what Apple is going for? On the current television landscape, good simply means inessential (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		William Bibbiani Bloody Disgusting	"What a thrill it is to watch each morbid chapter unfold. (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"
		Randall Colburn AV Club	"Mystery is good, but 'Servant' operates between so many blurred lines that, on an episode-to-episode basis, one longs for more solid ground—or, perhaps, a Shyamalan-like twist to lock everything into place."
