	Author	Review
United States	Robert Bianco USA Today	"'Taken' is almost bad enough to make you wish NBC would just offer another Chicago spinoff. (...) Rating: ★ (out of 4)"	NEG
United States	Mike Hale The New York Times	"All you want to know, probably, is whether the TV series has the blunt effectiveness and visceral pull of the film and its sequels. It doesn't."	NEG
United States	Maureen Ryan Variety	"There are various matters of logic that 'Taken' asks the audience (...) to ignore, and, as a reward for doing so, it holds out the promise that the team's goals and the increasingly assured pacing will make the suspension of disbelief worth it."	POS
United States	Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"I hold 'Taken' on no pedestal and yet whatever virtues the title denotes, the NBC series delivers none of them."	NEG
United States	Ben Travers IndieWire	"Nothing about the show matches expectations, making it a confounding (and largely boring) viewing experience."	NEG
