United Kingdom	Jack Seale The Guardian	"[2nd Season Review]: 'Bloodlands' has fallen back down to earth (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Joel Keller Decider	"[2nd Season Review]: 'Bloodlands' layers even more intrigue onto what's generally a straightforward, unfussy detective drama, with James Nesbitt's raw anger leading the way"	POS
United Kingdom	Anita Singh Telegraph	"[2nd Season Review]: The plot is sufficiently good to bring me back, but dramas can feel like a bit of a slog when the central character is unlikeable and potentially everyone is lying (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
Ireland	Eilis O'Hanlon Irish Independent	"[2nd Season Review]: There really aren't sufficient words in the dictionary to capture this show's sheer awfulness"	NEG
United States	Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut	"With mystery and suspense aplenty, 'Bloodlands' gets off to a rollicking start thanks to a compelling mystery and a deeply wounded performance from James Nesbitt (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Lucy Mangan The Guardian	"'Bloodlands' is shaping up to be a fine addition to the growing genre of Irish noir (...) An enjoyably dense and astute thriller (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
Ireland	Ed Power Irish Times	"It’s ultimately difficult to see 'Bloodlands' as anything other than an appetite-whetter for the next season of 'Line of Duty'."	NEU
United Kingdom	Ed Cumming The Independent	"'Line of Duty' creator Jed Mercurio serves up another tortuous crime thriller (...) Nesbitt eases into the role like a favourite coat (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Joel Keller Decider	"A solid drama that moves through its story efficiently without a lot of fuss. And that’s a pretty welcome thing these days."	POS
