Critics' reviews

"Couple's relationship is groundbreaking, but jokes aren't. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"

Kari Croop: Common Sense Media
"As a jazz musician might do something lovely even with a banal melody, McKellen and Jacobi - baritone to tenor - make beautiful, dissonant music together."

Robert Lloyd: Los Angeles Times
"Vicious is a creepy, in style and attitude"

Matt Roush: TV Guide
"An apotheosis of the form: Its theatricality is expert, its rote insult comedy is delicious but not unyielding, and its unhip datedness is mined for exactly that quality."

Brandon Nowalk: AV Club
"Line-for-line, 'Vicious' would seem depressingly outdated and especially boring if delivered with American accents; but it somehow takes on a whiff of Oscar Wilde-like charm simply because it's British."

Hank Stuever: The Washington Post
"The show is, essentially, three dated, clichd jokes told over and over again."

Matthew Gilbert: Boston Globe
"McKellen turns out to be the show's not-so-secret weapon. A great actor playing a mediocre one, he's somehow entirely convincing in the part and particularly adept at delivering Janetti's acid-tongued putdowns and sarcastic asides."

Brian Lowry: Variety
