Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times Oct 21
There are mysteries to solve, of course, but they come and go, while family, even at its most arduous and argumentative, is forever. Go to Full Review
Alison Herman Variety Oct 20
Starting with the nonsensical name and flatlining from there, the show is a generically conceived, limply executed take on small-town law enforcement. Go to Full Review
Monique Jones Common Sense Media Nov 4
3/5
The success of Sheriff Country comes in part because of its comfortable predictability. You know the crimes will get solved, family issues will be addressed, and some lingering storylines will keep you coming back for the next episode. Go to Full Review
Joel Keller Decider Oct 22
Sheriff Country has already set up some good stories and rivalries in its first episode, and Baccarin strikes the right tone as a person who wants to keep her hometown safe. Go to Full Review

6/10
Sheriff Country is at its best when it doubles down on being a relatable family drama with crime elements. It loses what makes it special when it leans too hard into being a Jerry Bruckheimer production. Go to Full Review

While the Sheriff Country premiere is very much a first episode, it comes with a lot of talent and plenty of potential. Go to Full Review

Greg A Nov 11 Head and shoulders above typical police procedurals. Well written episodes with some nice twists. As many of the better crime dramas today (e.g. Slow Horses, Landman& MobLand) more emphasis on characters and less on procedure). The chemistry between Morena Baccarin (Mikey Fox), Matt Lauria (Nathan Boon) and W. Earl Brown (Wes Fox) is tangible. Nice moments of comic relief showing the characters foibles making them human and believable. See more Nov 11 It's a good show. Not going to win big awards, but it's a good watch. The characters are interesting and the story line is pretty good. See more Mason H Oct 28 The characters are great, love Morena in this and the world is really interesting - I haven’t seen what a show set in Weed growing areas. So far the investigations are good! See more Arlen B. @Arlen170 Oct 22 This was only 1 episode but blah See more Liam A Oct 20 After much excitement waiting for sheriff country it certainly delivered an amazing pilot first episode soo touching, edge of seat, emotional an deep they've done soo well with it and incredible casting too soo much talent. Im soo excited for the rest of the season total obsessed with sheriff country now i love the show it really gives the small town country vibe too. 5 star highly recommend See more George M Oct 19 This show is a mess and at the same time interesting... I have to say it's the first time I don't like something, but I am waiting to see what happens next. The police action is amateurish, the story is all over the place, same old kind of drama with cop parent, from one extreme to the other... still I kind of got stuck watching it. Hm...
