	Author	Review
United States	Caroline Framke Variety	"Despite its very best efforts to distinguish itself, though, 'Big Sky' ends up feeling like less of a twist on a TV mystery than an overwrought indulgence of the genre’s most basic instincts."	NEG
United States	Jen Chaney Vulture	"[In the first two episodes it] throws just enough storytelling curveballs to pique interest (...) But if the series doesn’t start to cohere after a couple more episodes, some may be inclined to move on"	NEU
United States	Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"Despite a strong creative team and a cast of TV favorites, 'Big Sky' is a very bad show. It's tawdry and manipulative"	NEG
United States	Judy Berman Time	"The show, in its network-y clumsiness, offers something that failed pay-TV dramas rarely achieve: fun (...) [It] can feel glib in its exploration of many themes"	NEU
United States	Joel Keller Decider	"[It] has that shock at the end of the first episode that may keep you watching, but you’ll learn that the story that goes from that point isn’t really all that compelling"	NEG
United States	Ben Travers IndieWire	"A game cast and expansive setting can’t brighten an icky, by-the-numbers P.I. procedural with delusions of grandeur."	NEG
United States	Brian Lowry CNN	"[It] turns out to be pretty surprising and compelling once you get past the clunky and unpleasant task of setting it all up."	NEU
United States	Kelly Connolly TV Guide	"[It] completely wastes the considerable charm at its disposal, mostly by making the most sexist storytelling choices possible at every turn (…) Rating: ★½ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Alan Sepinwall Rolling Stone	"A big disappointment from one of TV’s best creators (...) [It] leans away from its central characters and wallows in exploitation (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
