Josh Bell Boston Globe Jun 11
With its choice needle drops, vibrant desert setting, and charming characters, Duster is breezy, low-impact entertainment. Go to Full Review
Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times May 19
“Duster” is stupid fun, a comic melodrama steeped in 1970s exploitation flicks, with a lot of loving homage to period clothes, knickknacks and interior design. Go to Full Review

Duster is a fresh and exciting show filled with action and mystery, while also bringing a gripping story of resilience about a woman who doesn’t back down despite being constantly undermined. Go to Full Review
Polly Conway Common Sense Media May 21
Duster doesn't bring much new with its premise, but it's fun to watch the expertly chosen cast chew a little scenery. Go to Full Review

A P. @FilmFan4547 Nov 23 Should have gotten a second season. Great writing, interesting characters, and an engaging plot. Deserved a much better fate from HBO. See more Mark H Oct 6 Amazing! So true to the 1970s. The INTRO is to die for!!!! OMG! I love this show. Please bring it back for a second season, so people can see how great it is. See more Paige M. @catlover Sep 24 I loved the feeling of the 1970s in Phoenix. Acting was phenomenal. The writing was excellent. I stumbled across the show and cannot believe that HBO did nothing to promote it. They never gave it a chance and they canceled it after one season. I hope some other streaming service realizes what a gem the show is and picks it up for a second series. Although season one concludes the entire story arc, it sets up a season two that sounds like it could be just as phenomenal as season one. See more Benjamin H Sep 13 Covered in a modernly retro style and elegantly vibrant, Duster's simple storytelling hurts some of the character's memorability and it is rather cliched on some levels, but it's easygoing entertainment that blends comedy, crime and action pleasantly together and features solid performances.

See more Kim K. @Krummel Sep 1 Duster is an awesome series, very exciting and a great story with many twists I didn’t expect, I would suggest that you give it a try I’m sure you will like it.
