TV Review: Truth Seekers season 1 episode 1
I'm definitely looking forward to watching more of the series to see where it goes next, and Pegg and Frost have created another bunch of characters whose lives I'm already gripped by. Rated 3.75 stars out of 5.
Alex Finch, Comedy To Watch, 31st October 2020Review: Truth Seekers
It's frequently a deeply silly show, of course, and the season's overarching storyline, which involves the connection between wireless broadband and alternate dimensions, is pure, high-concept sci-fi, with just the right amount of cheesiness, for flavor. But Truth Seekers takes seriously the things it should: its need to throw in a few legitimate scares every so often and the abiding humanity of its characters.

Frost and Pegg's nostalgic reunion lacks subversive zing.
