Widow's Bay Reviews

so good! great blend of suspense/horror & comedy. if you’re unsure of the show I would suggest keep watching and never drink the punch!

There’s nothing much happening 6/10

I really liked this show. It was very funny but the comedy never undercut the tension and horror which was pretty exciting. Bummed I gotta wait ~two years for season two.

I enjoyed the initial scary events (William, Hag, Masked murder) but as I learned more about the main plot I became disinterested. The horror comedy moments were the most fun, but the main plot turned from comedy and horror to some dull story that left me with a bitter taste

Reluctant watching this. Best with my eyes closed. Too scary.

Meant to rate this a while ago but Peak Apple TV ready for season 2
8.7/10

So far so good! When it opened up it gave me Jaws vibes, I liked the setting and using the island as the main source of all of the supernatural stuff going on in this show. I really liked how it took different aspects of the horror genre. Still can’t believe how funny it is. Such a good balance

when i started watching it i was worried it wouldn't be good because i would compare it to From, but it was completely its own thing, and very different from every other horror show or movie i've ever watched. now i want to watch more stuff with Matthew Rhys.

Dude… this shit was a BANGER. It was so fucking funny i didnt expect to laugh that much but the delivery from the actors was j too good. All of the cast was amazing, they were just so unique. The finale was perfect, and i honestly have zero complaints, just ready for next szn😸

I NEED SEASON TWO RIGHT NOWWWWWW

I loved everything about it.
I highly recommend everyone to watch it without hesitation.

best show of 2026.
super underrated

SOOO GOOD and way too underrated 🔥
Literally the perfect combination of horror and comedy and the acting and plot was genuinely amazing.

9.3/10 🔥🔥

very pleasantly surprised by this. i had no idea what to expect but it turned out to be one of the best coastal town thrillers (with a side of comedy) i’ve seen in a while. as someone said, it’s midnight mass’ twin. the twist ending was also good and how it’s left open

Its painful and boring to watch.

Awesome

Loved this show I need season 2 already

I loved the ‘monster of the week’ structure of this series. I love these characters of course, and I’d love a season 2. The only thing that bugged me is that I just didn’t feel closure in any way. I don’t mean emotionally or anything, but more that as a season itself, it didn’t feel complete.

there was a lot that I apparently missed because I didn’t pay close enough attention while watching. I don’t mean that I looked away a single time (I doubt that I did), but that there were certain things said that I just didn’t connect, and I didn’t expect them to matter. they ended up mattering quite a bit, just more for setting up a second season instead of the story of season 1. idk. there are some other small things I didn’t like but they’d be spoilers. overall good and unexpectedly so, but not fantastic.

Best show of 2026!

10/10, kinda scary but also comedic
