The Outlaws review
These Outlaws are so confused... I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
Christopher Stevens, Daily Mail, 26th October 2021TV review: The Outlaws, BBC One
There are a few cliches - the central casting council estate gang for example - but this is a very watchable, very surprising addition to Stephen Merchant's post-Office CV.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 25th October 2021The Outlaws review
It's a wonder no one thought of this before. Community service is a perfect premise for a sitcom: an opportunity to mix up characters from all walks of life in a situation they can't get out of... at least not until their sentences are served.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 25th October 2021The Outlaws review
Christopher Walken does community service in slightly naff misfit comedy.
Ed Cumming, The Independent, 25th October 2021The Outlaws, BBC1, review

Apple TV's first British comedy isn't as funny or as quirky as it's trying to be.
