Nash Bridges — Season 1

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Nash Bridges boasts the charisma of Don Johnson and wry support from Cheech Marin, but this star vehicle runs out of gas when it comes to offering its own unique identity amid a glut of similar television fare.

Sue Adolphson San Francisco Chronicle The plots typically include Russian gangsters, drug lords, thieves or murderers, with plausible enough stories that always include a little humor to balance the violence. Rated: 3.5/4 Jun 20, 2019 Full Review Tom Shales Washington Post It's a well-made hour, fast and splashy, but ugh, that Bridges character is such a clanky collection of corny cliches. Does anybody believe in oafs like this anymore? Well, anybody shouldn't. Jun 20, 2019 Full Review John P. McCarthy Variety Unless a strong ensemble develops or another Michael Mann lends a distinctive style to the action, this traditional and comparatively light cops-and-robbers hour could get lost on the streets of San Francisco. Jun 20, 2019 Full Review Scott D. Pierce Deseret News (Salt Lake City) While Johnson retains a certain charm, he's trying too hard -- and so is the show. Nash Bridges is just another ill-considered comeback attempt by a former TV star who flopped as a movie star. Jun 20, 2019 Full Review Alan Pergament Buffalo News God help me, I like it. As Sally Field might say, I really like it. Jun 20, 2019 Full Review David Zurawik Baltimore Sun A smart and swinging police drama that is the most promising pilot from CBS in two television seasons.
