By bucking the trend of bloated runtimes and unnecessarily long seasons, Servant proves that it's a great thriller, not in spite of its short runtime; but because of it.

If it sinks too deeply into the quagmire of weirdness it could very well stop being scary and become, instead, merely eccentric. Servant is veering close to campiness already.

Thereby hangs a dark tale.

The best original show Apple TV Plus was lurking in the shadows, which is fitting, since it's a horror drama loaded with endlessly intriguing dark shadows of the actual and psychological variety.
November 27, 2019
The show unravels its story through its brisk half-hour episodes by maintaining the aforementioned delicate balance, and rewarding patience with deep character growth.

Servant starts off with creepy atmosphere to spare. The problem is that it doesn't have nearly enough story to fill 10 episodes, which means that all that spare atmosphere gets used up well before its five-plus-hour running time is over.

It offers possible resolutions and answered questions, and seems to get off on withholding them. And despite its shortcomings, we keep going because we want a bite of that chocolate.
November 26, 2019
For all of the plot's shortcomings, moment-to-moment Servant is a delight with a surprising amount of laughs to share.
November 27, 2019
Right from the outset Servant brings surprises that keep the viewer wrong-footed. It also retains a delicious ambiguity.

It's a good premise, surrounded by good ideas, and yet there's no saving something that was never alive to begin with.
