David Tennant and Michael Sheen were due to star in a production of 'Six Characters in Search of an Author' . The pandemic has halted that, but their director Simon Evans is determined not to let the opportunity pass him by. He knows how big a chance this is for him and turns his attention to cajoling his stars into rehearsing over the internet. All they need to do is read the first scene, but throughout the series they come up against a multitude of oppositional forces. - VG (imdb)

The second series has diluted the score a bit, but the first series was sublime. Exactly what was needed during lockdown. It has the added appeal of sometimes being unsure of how much acting is being done.

Staged benefits from being pretty funny and timely. The meta-humour and cameos (from Jackson, Lester and Dench) are good, but by the end of the 6-episode run, the plot feels like it's run its course. Sheen and Tennant had better chemistry on Good Omens, and while this is likely due to writing, I suspect an aspect comes from the benefit of acting off each other in person. Good, but (hopefully) not the future of television.

Mildly entertaining but unfortunately not as good as expected. Series 2 was ok. A few laughs. Just not my thing.
