Emma Stone’s new TV show is stirring up very divisive reviews from critics
New comedy show The Curse con🙈jure💝s up a real mixture of critical reviews

Just days before it🦩s release, Emma Stone's new TV series🥀 The Curse has been met with divisive critic reviews online and on despite its current 83% score.
The genre-bending show, from minds such as 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Uncut Gems’ Benny Safdie, follows Stone and comedian Nathan Fielder as a newly married couple as they try to conceive a c🎉hild while co-starring in their new home-improvement show. But whilst on the job, the pair encounter an alleged curse. The project, co-written and co-directed by Fielder himself, acts as a parody of popular American home remodeling shows on HGTV.
While Stone has found major success this year with her movie 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Poor Things, which scored 100% on RT, her new role in ꦅthis off-the𝕴-beat creepy comedy, seems to be drawing more mixed reviews.
Judy Berman from commends the show, saying “Once again, it’s Fielder, a man whose face seems frozen in a flinch at the cꦯonstant awareness of his o🥂wn existence in this humiliating world, who makes the experience so transcendently uncomfortable.”
Similarly, Kristen Baldwin from states that the show's “Blending cringe comedy with contemplative character study and undertones o🉐f horror&rཧdquo; makes The Curse truly hard to forget.
However, not everybody is a fan. “In the end, the mix of tones and genres is more confounding than exciting,” says Alan Se💜pinwall from , “as if Fielder and Safdie weren’t sure what they ultimately wanted to accomplish beyond hours of oppressive claustrophobia in desperate search of release.”
Kathryn VanArendonk from echos this, saying the show leaves a lot of its ideas undeveloped, “especially from its central ♕themes about race and constructions of the self.”
