Judy Berman TIME Magazine Anna Lambe gives a wonderfully charismatic performance as Siaja. May 1, 2025 Full Review Margaret Lyons New York Times On the whole, this is a cozy sweetheart show with lots going for it. Apr 23, 2025 Full Review Rebecca Onion Slate Netflix’s first Canadian original series is doing something totally new. Apr 21, 2025 Full Review James Croot The Post NZ A scene-stealer in Three Pines, Alaska Daily and True Detective: North Country, Anna Lambe finally takes centre stage – to winning effect. Apr 29, 2025 Full Review Dustin Rowles Pajiba North of North is the antidote we didn’t know we needed, a brief, joyful respite not just from the grim news cycle but also from the intensity of most streaming TV. Apr 18, 2025 Full Review Kate Sánchez But Why Tho? A Geek Community North of North uses a typical sitcom format, and it thrives because of it. This is a Native sitcom with a universal story.

Courtney T A pleasant surprise with heart and a great cast. I want to see many more seasons of this gem! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/30/25 Full Review Lori F It’s really a show worth watching . It’s light , but heartwarming and the acting and writing is noteworthy. It’s made me so curious about the Inuit Culture, that I’m going to take a break from watching it, in order to learn more about it before I complete the show. Cannot imagine that Netflix hasn’t renewed it already. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/27/25 Full Review serfwareinc u Great story, great cast, great characters, wry humor, and keeps you wanting more. No sermonizing or lecturing, I will be keenly disappointed if this show doesn't continue. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/25/25 Full Review Marlene M I've only watched the first two episodes. I really wanted to like this show but it was not funny and the acting was not good. I admit I had high expectations given that I loved True Detective: Night Country and I read a review comparing this show to Schitt's Creek (another favorite). Unfortunately, this show fell flat. Even the cultural references seemed forced and were trying too hard. The show should have done a better job of incorporating the culture throughout the episodes rather than throwing it all in our face at the beginning. I have a feeling the show gets better so I may come back to it at some point. . . but not sure. . . Rated 1 out of 5 stars 04/23/25 Full Review shehlla k Loved this show! Something different and very original. I really hope they come out with another season. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/22/25 Full Review Audience Member I absolutely loved this lighthearted, quirky and funny show. I tuned in to see Jay Ryan but I enjoyed so many of the other characters on the show. I appreciated the focus on family and community so much. I really hope they bring it back for many more seasons!
