	Author	Review
United States	Neil Genzlinger The New York Times	"The cases are unsurprising, the central characters’ back stories are contrived, and the show’s efforts to be sexy and saucy are clumsy."	NEG
United States	David Wiegand SFGATE	"An overheated, overwritten and implausible story."	NEG
United States	Tim Goodman The Hollywood Reporter	"A law procedural so paint-by-numbers it's like everybody gave up halfway through and added terrible colors out of boredom."	NEG
United States	Robert Rorke New York Post	"The show’s pacing is brisk, the acting is fine on all fronts (...) and it’s nice to look at--which just might be enough to keep 'Conviction' going. (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of four)"	POS
United States	Hank Stuever The Washington Post	"The only thing waiting at the finish line for a show this average is cancellation."	NEG
