	Author	Review
United States	Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times	"'Briarpatch' quickly lets down its hair to become engaging and involving. Characters flirt with type but finally come across as original and real"	POS
United States	Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"Somewhere between 'odd' and 'compelling' (...) 'Briarpatch' just isn't twisty or funny or sexy or brazen enough to whet my appetite"	NEU
United States	Daniel D'Addario Variety	"Anchored by a strong Rosario Dawson performance and flavored with wit and a real sense of place, 'Briarpatch' is a charmer"	POS
United States	Nick Allen rogerebert.com	"'Briarpatch' is comprised of a lot of mysteries (...) that seemingly cancel each other out when it comes to intrigue (...) [It] clearly knows how to keep itself busy, but rarely feels like it’s in motion"	NEG
United States	Haleigh Foutch Collider	"Its faults are easy enough to forgive because 'Briarpatch' is an easy and entertaining watch with a firecracker cast, kooky character, and funky world."	POS
United States	Merrill Barr Forbes	"Lots of interesting and lots of nothing (...) Fans of the genre will likely find much to enjoy from the series. The same, however, can not be said for the audience as a whole."	NEU
United States	Ben Travers IndieWire	"A pretty cool combination of genres (...) A distinctly enjoyable visual experience"	POS
United States	Alex McLevy AV Club	"It gets in a little over its head by trying to cram too much plot and wackiness (...) When it calms down and manages to settle in to a single story for sufficient lengths of time, 'Briarpatch' is alive with wit and style"	NEU
United States	Kaitlin Thomas TV Guide	"The series is definitely watchable, but by never fully committing to one thing, it ends up with several interesting ideas rotating around one another rather than coming together to tell a fully realized story (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
