Season 1 Reviews
Washington Post
Hank Stuever
"Divorce" is best when it sticks to its title.
TheWrap
Amber Dowling
Considering all the stories about meet-cutes, romance and marriage on television these days, this is the perfect antithesis. In comedy form, of course.
Newsweek
Tom Shone
The big draw of HBO's new comedy series Divorce, about a suburban couple spiraling into an ever more acrimonious divorce, also turns out to be its weakest link.
MTV
Inkoo Kang
Divorce doesn't necessarily need sparks, but it does need to tell us who Frances and Robert are as people. What the series presents, though, are cardboard figurines from a paper-doll booklet.
Entertainment Weekly
Jeff Jensen
Divorce makes you feel almost nothing. It's a shallow bore, and not even the flailing efforts of its stars make it interesting.
AV Club
Gwen Ihnat
Divorce wouldn't work nearly as well without Parker and Haden Church playing off of each other.
Salon.com
Melanie McFarland
Church generates most of the comedy in the show's opening episodes, which is terrific... and his signature straight-faced delivery makes Robert enjoyable to watch even when behaving ignobly.
Vox
Emily St. James
Divorce, for those who are willing to gut it out, proves surprisingly durable, getting a little deeper and more thoughtful with every episode. It features a surprising number of darkly inspired laughs, thanks to creator Sharon Horgan.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Matt Zoller Seitz
This deepening pit of self-justification and sadness is keenly observed by Horgan and her collaborators... And both the acting and the dialogue are barbed-wire sharp.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
David Martindale
The show is funny but in a sad way, funny in an awkward-moments way.
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
Almost everything about the show feels clunky, even forced.
Slate
Willa Paskin
The number of cooks in the kitchen, alongside HBO and its attendant executives, suggests the show's stakes, but may also explain the muddled series that results.
New York Post
Robert Rorke
She wants a divorce.As we soon learn, that's only half of the story, and Robert, after trying to figure out what he did wrong, soon gets the upper hand in this marital tug-of-war. That's really when the fun starts.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Ellen Gray
The actors are well-matched, even if their characters aren't, and no one projects might-be-just-a-little-crazy like Church.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
It's one of those shows filled from top to bottom with unlikable characters, often caught in situations that just don't feel genuine.
Wall Street Journal
Dorothy Rabinowitz
In this skillfully conceived series the characters never fail to remind us of the forces that drive them, and no one does it better or more compellingly than Thomas Haden Church as Robert.
New York Times
James Poniewozik
Divorce is not as dewy-eyed as its forebear, not as fresh in its material, and in its first outings, not as consistently funny. But it can be a caustic pleasure, a chaser, heavy on the bitters, to Carrie's fruity cosmo.
HitFix
Alan Sepinwall
I laughed a lot... watching Divorce, even as I kept feeling frustrated that it didn't seem willing to fully embrace the awfulness of its premise, or its entire cast of characters. To be as good as it can be, it has to be more willing to be bad.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Lloyd
If the show doesn't exactly make you root for them getting back together - even their children shrug the whole thing off - it's satisfying when they do cooperate, or when one does something nice for the other.
The Hollywood Reporter
Tim Goodman
The one thing it does with precision is anchor Divorce as a show that's difficult to watch if you've been through a divorce -- and maybe even harder to watch if (like so many people) you're in an unhappy or crumbling marriage.
