Being trapped in space with these people for three years seems like it would be sheer torture, and spending half an hour a week with them on TV isn't really much better.

This far in, it's hard to tell if "Avenue 5" can keep up the pace, but there's enough talent steering this ship to believe it can fly.
January 15, 2020
Be patient and you'll find that Avenue 5 develops into its own bizarre creation, a commentary with memorable characters on how disaster makes actors of us all.
January 17, 2020
Avenue 5 is not meant to be particularly thought-provoking. Instead, the show channels the kind of acerbic banter you'd find in Selina Meyer's Oval Office on the deck of a wayward spaceship.

Given the glee with which Iannucci sets these characters against one another in the first four episodes - and his willingness to make increasingly grim physics jokes - the voyage of the Avenue 5 looks very promising...
January 16, 2020
Despite its humor and the sleekness of the production design, Avenue 5 is the first great work of dystopian fiction of the 2020s.
January 17, 2020
It takes several episodes before Avenue 5 finds its feet and for it to become clear what's actually happening to the ship and its passengers - and it's worth waiting for.

Avenue 5's heart is in the right place. It had a mission. But, much like its starring vessel, it manages to screw the pooch on that one.

[S]ome of the performances are promising and, in the case of Hugh Laurie, Zach Woods, and Suzy Nakamura, instantly indelible. I'm in wait-and-see mode, with a side of optimism.
January 17, 2020
Though the plot moves a bit slowly in the beginning, that pace allows [Armando] Iannucci to roll out plenty of other amusing characters.
January 17, 2020
It's a bland allegorical satire built on an obvious point that unfolds in outer space where days (or nights) never end, and the passengers are irritating, and the ship is girdled by stiffs and human excreta.
January 17, 2020
A lot of Avenue 5's issues do boil down to the growing pains of a high-concept comedy and how that hinders the rapid-fire joke machine one would expect from Iannucci.
