It's Ryan Murphy going full-on Ryan Murphy, with all the strengths and shortcomings which that implies. It's a shame they didn't put as much effort into the story as the vibrant presentation. [Full review in Spanish]

"Ratched" has already been renewed by Netflix for a second season. Based on the first eight episodes, the show will need a miracle cure to be worthy of all the talented people involved.

Ratched lacks sustained faith in the power of its human drama.

Ratched is style over substance again. But what style.
September 17, 2020
"Ratched" is garish and gorgeous all at the same time; horrific and occasionally poetic; glamorous to an almost laughable degree; thrilling for a while and then puzzlingly dull for stretches, only to become interesting all over again.

The name Ratched calls to mind words like "ratchet" and "wretched," but in this slick, inconsistent series she's more a jumble of qualities whose truths are coyly withheld from us.

Ratched returns Murphy to his deliciously horrific TV roots, bringing the origin of an iconic character to life for a new generation.

Paulson's conniving, manipulative, but occasionally tender-hearted character is fun to watch, especially playing against an absolutely wonderful Cynthia Nixon.

As an avowed fan of Fletcher's performance in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, this review must finally confront the elephant in the room. Paulson's performance is even better.

Ryan Murphy's latest is gorgeously shot, but joyless in the extreme, and Sarah Paulson's dour title character grows tiresome very early on. Did anyone ask for this?

No longer a chilling avatar of implacable, self-satisfied state violence who needs no reason to exist other than that the system will always find people like her to keep running, Nurse Ratched is now just another poor, misunderstood antihero.

Call me crazy, but once I committed myself (pardon the pun) to Ratched, I couldn't stop watching - even though I really wanted to.
