Amandaland episode two review
You can tell a comedy series has taken off when people who don't usually discuss sitcoms are discussing it.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 12th February 2025Amandaland review
A superbly silly Motherland spin-off. The tragicomic adventures of the delusional Amanda make for rich comedy fodder.
Rebecca Nicholson, The Financial Times, 11th February 2025Amandaland review
Lucy Punch has never been better.
Charlotte O'Sullivan, The Independent, 6th February 2025Amandaland review
The first thing you notice about Amandaland is how similar it is to its predecessor. The second thing you notice is that you miss Julia, Liz, Meg and Kevin. And the third, after a while, is that their absence doesn't actually matter that much, as the Motherland spin-off proves itself a just as cruelly delightful as the original.

Dame Joanna sweeps up laughs like an aristocratic shoplifter on a spree.
Christopher Stevens, Daily Mail, 6th February 2025Amandaland review
I wouldn't go as far as to say that Amandaland breaks any new ground, but it is full of brilliantly observed, gloriously funny social observations that really hit home. And most importantly it will make you laugh.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 5th February 2025Amandaland review
A rare chance to laugh so hard you wee yourself.
Chitra Ramaswamy, The Guardian, 5th February 2025Amandaland review
Amanda is back - and she's as cringey as ever.
Rachael Sigee, i Newspaper, 5th February 2025Amandaland review
Lucy Punch and Joanna Lumley make a dream comic double act.
Anita Singh, The Telegraph, 5th February 2025Amandaland review
Amandaland is brilliant, brutal and 100% better than it has any right to be.
