Utopia — Season 1

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Utopia squanders a lofty premise and quickly devolves into a hellish slog that barters in the most irksome reality television tropes.

Utopia: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Graeme Blundell The Australian A high-end conceptual adaptation... Dec 16, 2020 Full Review Utopia: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Rachel Sugar Observer Unsurprisingly, the Dutch appear significantly more committed to the utopian project. Jan 8, 2019 Full Review Utopia: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Bill Keveney USA Today There's "the lack of structured elements and format, the lack of rules, the type of cast. These are not your typical people who would go on a reality game show or just want to be on TV. Jan 8, 2019 Full Review Utopia: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Daniel Seddon NME (New Musical Express) The fan fervour is one thing, but Utopia's unadulterated mayhem isn't replicable - attempting to do so is a lost cause, especially without the genius composer Cristobal Tapia de Veer. Rated: 2/5 Jul 8, 2021 Full Review Utopia: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Steve Murray ArtsATL I thought it was . . . OK. But it constantly undercuts itself with a very high body count and a glib approach to mass murder. Approach with caution. Oct 10, 2020 Full Review Utopia: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Pilot Viruet Flavorwire Utopia was promising before it began, but the execution undid all that promise within the first episode.

Audience Member A pathetic and disrespectful attempt at a remake. Becky, and Jessica, the original protagonists, are now vapid, empty, and boring, as is the rest of the cast. I was nearly in tears with disappointment at the end of the first episode. Incomparable to the original UK series. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Jode M Enjoy this show, would love to see this show to the end. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/06/14 Full Review Audience Member UTOPIA provides a fresh, unique new twist on reality TV... and ultimately lets down. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member My new guilty pleasure... Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Wow, talk about a bunch of crap... stupid Fox. People need to quite wasting money on crap like this and put some effort into something decent :( Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member a clever premise that is totally wasted on puerile behaviour.
