	Author	Review
United States	Linda Stasi New York Post	"This series-in-a-series is an innovative and creative way to make TV (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of four)"	POS
United States	Ken Tucker Entertainment Weekly	"It's a great premise, but the show-within-the-show is so hammy, it's hard to imagine any viewer killing in its honor"	POS
United States	Tom Long Detroit News	"You get the feeling creator Rockne S. O'Bannon is building a puzzle box to nowhere here, but Knepper's malevolent glare sets a nice, unhinged tone"	POS
United States	Mary McNamara Los Angeles Times	"'Cult' has just the right amount of preposterous dialogue and clunky transitions to draw potential hate-watchers too, a bit of zeitgeist juggling that is both slightly nauseating and admirable"	NEU
United States	Mike Hale The New York Times	"With a style and atmosphere reminiscent of better CW shows like 'Supernatural' and 'The Vampire Diaries', and a mildly interesting, at best, metaphysical-mystery component that feels borrowed from 'Lost'"	NEU
United States	Tim Goodman The Hollywood Reporter	"It's definitely too laughably convoluted to go into"	NEG
