TV Series. Thriller. Drama TV Series (2013-2016). 4 Seasons. 52 Episodes. Feisty lead detective Angie Flynn is on a backwards chase for clues to a killer that has already been revealed to viewers. This cat-and-mouse series is a twist on the everyday whodunit.

	Author	Review
United States	Mike Hale The New York Times	"It’s reasonably smart, reasonably interesting and reasonably well acted without being particularly good"	NEU
United States	Brian Lowry Variety	"Lehman’s character is allowed to exhibit a bit of a personal life, but for the most part the series doesn’t stray far from its criminal motif"	NEU
United States	David Wiegand SFGATE	"Instead of being a 'whodunit', 'Motive' is a 'whydunit', which, except for the appeal of the show's star, amounts to a 'whocares'"	NEU
United States	Mary McNamara Los Angeles Times	"There is really only one reason to watch ABC's Canadian-import place-holder crime drama Motive--Kristin Lehman"	NEU
United States	Matt Roush TV Guide	"You've heard of open-and-shut cases. 'Motive' is more like open and yawn"	NEG
