Our Review
The Studio (2025) is a comedy series from Apple TV. It premiered on March 26, 2025. Viewers rate it 5.9 out of 10. It is currently running. It runs 1 season.
What The Studio Is About
As movies struggle to stay alive and relevant, Matt and his core team of infighting executives battle their own insecurities as they wrangle narcissistic artists and craven corporate overlords in the ever-elusive pursuit of making great films. With their power suits masking their never-ending sense of panic, every party, set visit, casting decision, marketing meeting, and award show presents them with an opportunity for glittering success or career-ending catastrophe. As someone who eats, sleeps, and breathes movies, it’s the job Matt’s been pursuing his whole life, and it may very well destroy him.
What to Expect When You Watch
The format keeps each instalment self-contained enough to drop into, spread across 1 season and it leans into its comedy roots while leaving room for the quieter character beats.
Performance-wise the series leans on Seth Rogen, Ike Barinholtz and Chase Sui Wonders to carry the emotional weight, with the rest of the ensemble filling out the world around them.
Cast and Creative Team
Seth Rogen, Ike Barinholtz, Chase Sui Wonders, Kathryn Hahn and Catherine O'Hara lead the cast.
Key roles include Seth Rogen as Matt Remick; Ike Barinholtz as Sal Saperstein; Chase Sui Wonders as Quinn Hackett; Kathryn Hahn as Maya Mason; Catherine O'Hara as Patty Leigh.
Why It Stands Out
Fans of comedy have a clear reason to give this one a shot. It sits comfortably alongside Apple TV’s other originals, a 5.9/10 audience score puts it in steady company and it commits to its premise instead of hedging between tones.
Released in 2025 and carried by Apple TV with the series still running, it lands hardest with comedy viewers.
How The Studio Compares
If The Studio lands for you, the next stops are Nathan for You, Taskmaster and Seinfeld, which share its comedy lean.
Each of those sits at a different point on the same spectrum, so they make a natural follow-up once you finish the run here.

On the whole The Studio is the kind of series that rewards a patient watch, with Seth Rogen and Ike Barinholtz doing the heaviest lifting, a tone that stays true to its comedy roots, It has held up since 2025 and so if the premise sounds like your lane, the execution holds up.
The Bottom Line
The Studio is a safe bet for anyone already inside the comedy lane, the audience score holds around 5.9/10 and so there is little risk in starting it tonight.
Verdict: 5.9/10. Watch it if you want comedy you can settle into.
