	Author	Review
United States	Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times	"A visually arresting and well-edited series (...) When the reveals do come, we’re shocked and delighted, and somehow all the madness begins to make some kind of sense (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United States	Chase Hutchinson Collider	"It is both creative and cathartic, revealing much about the family at its center even as it finds splendor in the overwhelming awe of the unknown."	POS
United States	Katie Rife Polygon	"The series transforms into something trippier and more compelling when Seimetz steps behind the camera for episodes five and six (...) [But] the first half of 'Outer Range' leans a little too hard into slow-talkin’ cowboy languorousness"	NEU
United States	Kristen Lopez IndieWire	"Too weird to entertain (...) It’s doubtful most will stick around to figure out what the hell this show actually is about."	NEG
United States	Jeff Ewing Forbes	"A wonderfully multifaceted mystery thriller that balances a variety of otherworldly factors with an air of magic and beyond-the-pale curiosity throughout. It’s all anchored well by an excellent [Josh Brolin]"	POS
United States	Verne Gay Newsday	"What matters is entertainment value, and 'Outer Range' certainly has some of that, even if coherence takes a back seat at times. The show (...) is visually striking, the cast excellent (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"	POS
Canada	Peter Martin Screen Anarchy	"The mixture of genres never quite gells entirely. Even so, more than enough tasty ingredients begin percolating early (...) The more 'Outer Range' leans into its lunacy, the better it gets"	NEU
United States	Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"More superficially weird than deeply mysterious, 'Outer Range' isn't consistently satisfying (...) I'm not sure how much more of my time I feel like shoveling into this void when TV offers so many more compelling black holes"	NEG
United States	Adam Lock Ready Steady Cut	"[It] may be the craziest show out there, but the madness can be forgiven when it’s so darn engrossing and original. A possible cult classic in the making, this is unpredictable and highly entertaining binge material (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Tim Surette TV Guide	"It's the 'spirit of the land' mysticism and intentional trips into the bizarre that really make 'Outer Range' stand out"	POS
United States	Caroline Framke Variety	"While Poots does her best to make Autumn as mesmerizing as the scripts insist she is, most every scene revolving around her ends up dragging the show down"	NEU
United Kingdom	Benjamin Lee The Guardian	"The eye-catching visuals only serve to remind us of the lack of magnetism elsewhere, the show trying to say something about fate, faith and family but falling short on profundity on all counts (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Alexis Gunderson Paste Magazine	"I can’t say I was sold when I first watched the final screener and put the pieces together, but then again, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since. So maybe that’s a win!"	POS
United States	Robert Daniels rogerebert.com	"'Outer Range' is the rare kind of genre-bending work that leaves one wounded in its fresh take on our human existence while offering untold possibilities"	POS
United States	Alison Foreman AV Club	"Despite the promise of a stunning natural setting and a big ol' hole to throw things into, Watkins can't quite come into his own (...) There's a nagging feeling 'Outer Range' never goes far enough"	NEU
Denmark	Karina Adelgaard Heaven of Horror	"The series is full of quirky and intriguing characters (...) Time jumps and flashbacks will keep you hooked. It certainly managed to keep me wanting to watch more when each episode ended (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
