Critics' reviews

"'Humans' finds a way to bring intrigue to a very familiar conflict."

Tim Goodman: The Hollywood Reporter
"Some beats are poignant (...) But there's nothing here that 'Blade Runner'; 'I, Robot'; 'Black Mirror'; and many more haven't done before and done better."

Jeff Jensen: Entertainment Weekly
"'Humans' feels like that sort ['The Twilight Zone'] of instant and very humanistic classic."

Matt Roush: TV Guide
"'Humans' does have that pleasingly antiseptic feeling of euro-cool (...), which can sometimes lure viewers into the belief that they’re watching something classy and sophisticated, when really they’re just snacking on the TV equivalent of rice cakes."

Hank Stuever: The Washington Post
"This main narrative of 'Humans' (...) is solid if somewhat familiar; the truth and beauty of the series lies in the various B plots."

Mary McNamara: Los Angeles Times
