Peter Travers of Good Morning America also dubs The Studio the best new comedy on the 2025 TV schedule so far, saying Seth Rogen has never been better, and along with co-creator and co-director of all 10 episodes Evan Goldberg, he busts open a piñata of juicy inside jokes for film geeks to devour. The critic continues:

After largely spending the late aughts and 2010s headlining R-rated comedies, Seth Rogen has spent much of his time post-COVID behind the camera as an executive producer.

It had been previously announced that The Studio, along with Rogen, stars Kathryn Hahn , Catherine O’Hara, Ike Barinholtz and Chase Sui Wonders, with Bryan Cranston, Keyla Monterroso Mejia and Dewayne Perkins recurring as guest stars.
