Other fans also praised the show, with one person penning: "#Stick on @AppleTV is yet another excellent show on the platform! Looking forward to the rest of the season!" while another applauded leading star Owen's portrayal of former pro-golfer, Pryce Cahill, adding: "The first episode of #Stick is great. I haven't enjoyed Owen Wilson this much since Wedding Crashers and Midnight In Paris!"

Loved the characters -Pryce, Santi, Mitts, Santi's mom. These 3 eps made my day!" while another said they were "obsessed" after the first three episodes, which they hailed as "perfect".
