	Author	Review
United States	Cristina Escobar rogerebert.com	"There’s a lot of injustice in 'Rain Dogs' but also a lot of love, bawdy humor, and perseverance. It’s ultimately a show about flawed people trying to do more than survive, and sometimes failing at it"	POS
United States	Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"It isn’t always easy to embrace. It can be bleak (...) But Carraway keeps the show moving from episode to episode"	POS
United States	Alan Sepinwall Rolling Stone	"One of the most surprising new shows of the year"	POS
United States	Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe	"The half-hour show is rewarding, rich in its characterizations and commanding in its self-awareness"	POS
United Kingdom	James Hibbs Radio Times	"Ambitious, original drama does too many things at once (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Chase Hutchinson Collider	"As emotionally fraught as it is sharply funny, this new series strikes a delicate balance between the pain and poetry of the everyday."	POS
United Kingdom	Hugo Rifkind The Times	"Cooper is a masterly actress, and her technique of gazing askance at her situation, which she always does so well, creates the mystery that drives this all forwards"	POS
United States	Coleman Spilde The Daily Beast	"'Rain Dogs' certainly won’t be for everyone, but that’s why it’s so surprising (...) a satisfying tale of what real tenacity looks like."	POS
Australia	Craig Mathieson The Age	"'Rain Dogs' has a naturalism that is eye-popping, bittersweet and sometimes tragic (...) This show floored me (...) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Vicky Jessop London Evening Standard	"'Rain Dogs' doesn't quite manage to mix its two competing genres successfully enough to keep you caring (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Judy Berman Time	"'Rain Dogs', in much the same way as Waits’ best songs, tempers its menacing tone with unexpected hints of warmth. And like any great album, the show’s eight short, thrilling episodes demand to be played on repeat."	POS
United States	Joel Keller Decider	"'Rain Dogs' promises to be an interesting examination in a certain kind of found family that’s by turns darkly funny and warmly inspiring."	POS
United States	Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut	"'Rain Dogs' is immediately recognizable as a great show, playing with genre and tone to great effect, with great performances keeping the whole thing moving. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Chitra Ramaswamy The Guardian	"Daisy May Cooper is magnificent in this bleak, beautiful comedy drama – which skewers the grotesque realities of class and sex inequality like nothing else (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Jasper Rees Telegraph	"'Rain Dogs' feels at its bravest and angriest when at its funniest (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
