Critic Reviews

"...not so much interested in setting up a dialectic between clashing belief systems as it is in delivering a socko FBI procedural. In both instances, it falls woefully short. " Los Angeles Times
- Jan Stuart
"It feels like a wan version of the show - one that has lost its otherworldly edge." USA Today
- Claudia Puig
"The problem is that the mystery isn't as compelling or satisfying as it should be..." Variety
- Brian Lowry
