AWARDS & REVIEWS
“Starstruck, is an expertly crafted old-school screwball comedy, crackling with wit and sexual chemistry” The Sunday Times
'Matafeo is endlessly watchable, her timing and delivery pure alchemy… Starstruck is a gem: warm-hearted but never saccharine, a very modern rom-com with fizzy ‘do keep-up’ dialogue'
★★★★★ Evening Standard
“Starstruck was a pure delight, sewing together a fresh sitcom using patchwork pieces of old Hollywood and new romcom. Series two is as much of a treat as the first”
★★★★ The Guardian
“The first series has been streamed almost five million times on BBC iPlayer, making it BBC3’s biggest comedy of last year and announcing the arrival of Matafeo as a star and a kind of millennial Nora Ephron, both here and in America, where it streamed on HBO Max… It’s also very funny… Starstruck is a hymn to love itself”
The Times
“Starstruck is the lighthearted TV rom-com we could all use right now”
NYC Daily Post
