Critics' reviews

"[It] takes on too much with too little nuance (...) It’s impressive how 'Impeachment' manages to make a true story feel this artificial."

Caroline Framke: Variety
"[An] engrossing, undeniably juicy limited series (...) Sarah Paulson's portrayal of Linda Tripp steals the show, but there's no shortage of remarkable work in a production that deserves an Emmy for its prosthetic makeup alone."

Brian Lowry: CNN
"It struggles to locate a larger point worthy of the time it takes to convey it. For a star-studded drama about an explosive historical moment, 'Impeachment' feels oddly static."

Angie Han: The Hollywood Reporter
"It's a gripping and challenging retelling of a presidential scandal — and our nation's moral failure."

Kristen Baldwin: Entertainment Weekly
"The only character 'Impeachment' really seems interested in humanizing is Monica, which isn’t so surprising given that Lewinsky (...) is one of its executive producers"

Judy Berman: Time
"The quality of the production is in line with past 'American Crime Story' seasons (...) A great deal of 'Impeachment' proves to be truly engrossing"

Liz Shannon Miller: Collider
"[It] misses the target more than it hits the bull’s eye (...) 'Impeachment' has much to be lauded for on the page and much to be laughed at on the screen"
