	Author	Review
United States	Hank Stuever The Washington Post	"The banter between them (Dean Winters and Josh Duhamel) can be fun and Gilligan’s influence lends a nice, creepy sheen to the notion that menace lurks anywhere."	POS
United States	David Wiegand SFGATE	"[It's] entertaining and involving enough (...) the series is fun and only slightly flawed."	POS
United States	Melissa Maerz Entertainment Weekly	"In the aftermath of 'Breaking Bad', which revolutionized the crime drama, 'Battle Creek' still feels today like a procedural from 2002."	NEU
United States	Alessandra Stanley The New York Times	"Mr. Winters and Mr. Duhamel give performances that add some glints of complexity to their surface charm, and (...) the writers avoid many of the usual clichés."	POS
United States	Brian Lowry Variety	"While 'Battle Creek' hews relatively close to CBS’ procedural comfort zone, the series also exhibits the wry, slightly jaundiced view of the world that has always characterized Gilligan’s work."	POS
