What to Know

Critics Consensus

Ratched is undeniably stylish, but salacious plot holes and cartoonish characterizations undermine its gorgeous production and committed performances.

Leticia Urieta Bitch Media While much of the series struggles with too many plotlines and Ratched's motivations often feel inconsistent, there are moments of genuine examination of how radical self-acceptance can help to heal trauma. Nov 14, 2020 Full Review Scott Bryan BBC.com Paulson nailed it in the characterisation. Shame about the plot. Oct 1, 2020 Full Review Kylie Northover The Age (Australia) This limited series is such fun, a sort of mash-up of the slasher sensibilities of American Horror Story with the old campy Hollywood glamour of Feud. Sep 28, 2020 Full Review Bethan Ackerley New Scientist In such a climate, when a show perpetuates obvious and harmful stereotypes about mental health, it is hard to applaud its vision, no matter how stylish and compelling a thriller it is. Jul 19, 2023 Full Review Michael Cuby them. Ratched is classic Murphy. Sep 29, 2022 Full Review Tom Gliatto People Magazine Paulson, an actress who achieves her effects with fine, precise detail, somehow manages to acknowledge the camp value of all of this without playing into it.

Max H It was so interesting and the "too many" plot lines got me more hooked, ended with a cliff hanger that got me mad tho don't watch unless you want to get disappointed over the show being canceled... Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/11/24 Full Review no w Paulson is so amazing, really the best Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/29/24 Full Review Raven M Very well written and acted by the cast Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/29/23 Full Review msh m Was not as good as I expected. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/13/23 Full Review Michael Antony A Mikey's TV Review: Ratched (2020) This 8 part series has little in common with 'One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest' (from which the central character is taken), but it is a campy, quirky, bloody trip. It looks fabulous, has a delicious Bernard Herrmann inspired score and a late 40's asthetic and production that recalls Hitchcock at his finest! The ace cast, lead by Sarah Paulson, chew the scenery with their customary aplomb (most are fellow luminaries from show runner Ryan Patrick Murphy's American Horror Story) delivered with a knowing wink. It suffers at times from a little too much style over substance, but there's nothing quite like it currently streaming and definitely worth your time... Mikey's TV Rating: 4/5* For fans of: Vertigo, Psycho, Cape Fear... Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/24/23 Full Review miss m Cliffhanger.
