	Author	Review
United States	Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"Spotty pacing, but the cast and context keep it watchable."	POS
Canada	John Doyle The Globe and Mail	"Hugely entertaining, clever and fizzing with energy, the six-episode series is a vivid blend of familiar TV storytelling conventions with a startling dose of spooky Indigenous Gothic."	POS
United States	Joel Keller Decider	"We’ll give 'Trickster' points for having a mostly Indigenous cast and writing staff. But the show itself has to become a bit less bleak for us to want to keep watching."	NEU
Canada	Bea Caicoya CBR	"Think David Cronenberg meets Guillermo del Toro, with a dash of the violent elegance of Black Swan's final sequence. 'Trickster' is a must-watch, for all of these reasons and more."	POS
United States	Joyce Slaton Common Sense Media	"It's a world that's as enchanting as it is freaky, as relatable as it is singular, making 'Trickster' an unmissable supernatural treat (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
