Season 1 Reviews
indieWire
Kristen Lopez
At the end of the day it's still a Murphy show, meaning that for every good thing, like Jennifer Coolidge's real-estate agent from hell, there's an element that makes you roll your eyes and sigh in exasperation.
TIME Magazine
Judy Berman
A fittingly frustrating finale...
TheWrap
Stephan Lee
If you're in the mood for pure camp, "The Watcher" will entertain you for an hour or so before you're yelling at it to get off your lawn.

[Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan] might get you to watch, but they didn't take the time to make something worth remembering.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Jen Chaney
A suburban-real-estate cautionary tale that knows what scares you. More than that, though, it knows what obsesses you.
KSTP-TV (St. Paul, MN)
Paul McGuire Grimes
The series will suck you in even if it deviates from the truth and goes in your typical Ryan Murphy direction.
JoBlo's Movie Network
Alex Maidy
I am confident that The Watcher is going to be another big hit for the super-producer. I hesitate to compare this show to Monster, but I think this may be a bit better of an overall production in terms of story, tone, style, and execution.
Austin Burke/Flick Fan Nation
Austin Burke
The journey itself is quirky, fun, and filled with numerous tense moments featuring the central family. That being said, the series ends up in an awkward place where there is no real sense of finality or payoff.
Forbes
Paul Tassi
I kept thinking "this is based on a true story? Seriously?" It turns out while the foundation of the story is true, so much absurdity is layered on top of it to make it into this drama, it loses what originally made the story genuinely interesting.
Variety
Daniel D'Addario
After awhile, the sense that anything is possible comes to mean that nothing surprises us, a bad thing for a show with at least a toe in earthbound, every-homeowner's-nightmare drama.
Film School Rejects
Valerie Ettenhofer
This (barely) based-on-a-true-story psychological thriller is ridiculous and funny, but never as scary or thoughtful as it means to be.
Decider
Joel Keller
The Watcher could have been a taut, tense thriller. But with Murphy and Brennan at the helm, it becomes more campy than tense, and even a stellar cast can't save the show from itself.
Hollywood Reporter
Angie Han
Unforgettable true story, forgettable miniseries.
Common Sense Media
Joyce Slaton
It's a lot of surprising extra for a story based on a real one, and though it's fun, it also verges on campy.
ArtsATL
Steve Murray
You can't criticize Murphy's work ethic. But you might wish he'd take a little time off and sit a little longer with his writers before they dash on to the next overly long and under-thought project.
Pajiba
Jen Maravegias
Tthe Network Movie Of The Week feeling of it all makes it far more enjoyable and less exhausting than trying to slog through a season of American Horror Story.
