Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com Subtlety may not be the hallmark of Thursday night dramas, but there's still a breaking point and Rebel hits it. Apr 8, 2021 Full Review Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter This is a pure star vehicle for Sagal, so it's almost hard to believe the sheer number of actors who might normally be second or third on the call-sheet who are happy to come in, nail a scene or two and leave. Apr 8, 2021 Full Review Daniel D'Addario Variety Trying to please everyone is a tricky line to walk when you're making a show about a person whose life's calling is fighting the establishment. Apr 7, 2021 Full Review Bill Brioux Brioux.tv There’s nothing even remotely rebelious about Rebel as a network TV formula, but it absolutely delivers on what it is and besides — “Conventional Procedural” is a lousy show title. Oct 5, 2022 Full Review Monique Jones Common Sense Media A generic legal drama...the series is very formulaic, but it also tries to convince viewers that it's cutting-edge and fresh. Rated: 3/5 Apr 10, 2021 Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Tribune-Review Rebel is an OK broadcast network soap thanks to snappy dialogue and dramatic scenes that should earn the show the nickname "10 Ways to Get Disbarred."

Audience Member Loved it and all the characters and actors! Big mistake cancelling! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Amazing finale, so sad to see it go still hoping another station or platform picks it up. Rebel was fueled by a beautiful message and an outstanding performance from Katey Sagal. This was one of my favorite new shows of 2021 and an A+ season. Sign the petition to save the show at change.org. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member I only watched the first episode and it was a chore to make it through to the end of it. Every plot point is so in-your-face, everyone is so loud and full of rage and although I like Katey Sagal, I don't like this performance. The entire cast of first-rate stars deserves better writing. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member An outstandingly entertaining show. It makes me laugh and cheer. Well written and well acted. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review sarah . This is a great show with a great premise. The ensemble cast is amazing. Please sign the petition to keep the show going... It needs more seasons!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review beverly o I have never written a review on this site, HOWEVER, I'm driven to compel viewers to give Rebel a shot! I have NO idea where critics are coming from as they pan this show as preachy! I find it fresh, fun and fast paced! I was hooked by the end of the Pilot episode! Kudos to the head of casting! Rarely have I fallen in love with each and every character in the first episode. This show clearly speaks to those leaning liberal, free thinkers and people who have heard of NPR! I know the show has been officially cancelled, but I'm hoping that it will be picked up by a streaming service! I want to see it continued so much that I will subscribe to any streaming entity that grabs it! PLEASE save Rebel! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
