Critics' reviews

"There’s too much talent here for 'Schmigadoon!' to ever be a total waste, but the show is far more pandering than nurturing."

Daniel Fienberg: The Hollywood Reporter
"Schmigadoon! is silly, sweet, sharp, and most of all, sensational (...) Schmigadoon! is so damn good it will have even musical theatre skeptics singing its praises."

Meghan O'Keefe: Decider
"The songs of 'Schmigadoon!' are genuinely impressive but rarely involving. This may be because when Key and Strong’s characters are not a part of the action (...) the songs are technical exercises of showmanship"

Daniel D'Addario: Variety
"You'll be laughing your head off while the series spins wickedly funny magic (...) Heartfelt series (...) I found it simply irresistible"

Peter Travers: ABC News
"There’s so much talent in Apple TV+’s musical comedy “Schmigadoon!” that it’s somewhat disappointing to report that the show is merely a modest diversion instead of a must-watch musical extravaganza"

Brian Tallerico: The Playlist
"The series manages to be simultaneously an adoring homage to the genre and a spot-on satire of it (...) this truly is a series for Broadway fans"

Amy Amatangelo: Paste Magazine
"At a brisk six, half-hour episodes, it’s painless, and sometimes genuinely enjoyable (...) the miniseries attempts to simultaneously spoof and pay affectionate tribute to famous shows (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"

Alan Sepinwall: Rolling Stone
