I fully did not expect to cry and laugh and scream all within the span of one show, and yet that's exactly what these episodes did. It's a fascinating way of storytelling, and I hope that others enjoy Calls as much as I did.March 18, 2021
Somehow, despite not a single actor appearing on screen, Calls manages to be one of the best-acted and well-executed series of the last few years. And it is going to freak you out.March 18, 2021
"Calls" works in part because it represents a change of pace, built around the notion that the horrors conjured by our imagination often surpass anything that millions of dollars in special effects can visualize.March 18, 2021
Asking viewers to suspend their existing notions of all these concepts as they watch to the stories play out is what makes a show like Calls so deliciously engaging - if, and it's a big, important if, you can get past the quirks of the format.
