By bucking the trend of bloated runtimes and unnecessarily long seasons, Servant proves that it's a great thriller, not in spite of its short runtime; but because of it.

It's a good premise, surrounded by good ideas, and yet there's no saving something that was never alive to begin with.

For all of the plot's shortcomings, moment-to-moment Servant is a delight with a surprising amount of laughs to share.

The show unravels its story through its brisk half-hour episodes by maintaining the aforementioned delicate balance, and rewarding patience with deep character growth.

Thereby hangs a dark tale.

Servant starts off with creepy atmosphere to spare. The problem is that it doesn't have nearly enough story to fill 10 episodes, which means that all that spare atmosphere gets used up well before its five-plus-hour running time is over.
