Both seasons of “Servant” received positive reviews from critics, including IndieWire’s Ben Travers. Though Travers criticized the show’s excessive product placement in his grade B- review of Season 2 in January, he praised the show’s strong visual style and use of horror.
“Though ‘Servant’ often reads like a comedy that thinks it’s a thriller, there are still some genuinely chilling scenes,” Travers said in his review. “Look forward to a hypnotization, eerie occurrences at 2 a.m., and at least one diabolical use of food that, even if you see it coming, proves enjoyable because of how hard the show leans into its culinary theme. Ambrose is even more giddily over the top, Grint angrily slugs back even more wine, and Kebbell finds impressive angry man charm playing a desperate husband caught between supporting his wife and acknowledging reality.”
“Servant” is the second television series that Shyamalan, who previously directed an episode of and executive produced Fox’s “Wayward Pines,” has been involved in. Shyamalan most recently directed thriller film “Old,” which premiered in theaters in July.
