'Shrinking' justifies its size, as it fills its world with distinct characters, all of them works in progress, even the professionals.

Screen Rant

Shrinking is as heartfelt as it is funny, with winning performances from the cast. The series doesn’t take itself too seriously, but it does tackle difficult subjects with gentleness and warmth, all without losing any of its heart.

CNN

“Shrinking” starts slowly, feeling like it’s going to be just another dour comedy as much about grief as laughs. Stick with it, though, and this Apple TV+ series from the team behind “Ted Lasso” really grows on you.

Perhaps it's apt that to watch the new Apple TV comedy Shrinking is to reckon inevitably with its extended family. That family includes Ted Lasso, with which Shrinking shares two of its creators.

Vulture

Watching Shrinking is like hosting an energetic guest who overstays their welcome. At first, it’s fun having them around, but after a couple hours, you kind of need a break.
