Alessandra Stanley New York Times Ms. Sedgwick's Southern accent is unconvincing, but her character overcomes that distraction: she is a complicated single woman who uses her own neuroses to deconstruct suspects' behavior and motives. Mar 5, 2019 Full Review Melanie McFarland Seattle Post-Intelligencer [Kyra] Sedgwick is tremendous, but the series' cast, including J.K. Simmons, Corey Reynolds and Robert Gossett, grew to the challenge the first season. Now they play off of her like a well-rehearsed string section backs up the soloist. Mar 5, 2019 Full Review John Leonard New York Magazine/Vulture Although we're promised plots involving money, gangs, and sexual pathology, we'll really be sitting still on Monday nights for the variations Sedgwick rings on Brenda. Jun 12, 2006 Full Review Leigh H. Edwards PopMatters While the show is a bit psychobabbly in implying that that's what most are really looking for... the dramatic intensity of their exchanges with Johnson makes for compelling episodes. Rated: 7/10 Mar 5, 2019 Full Review Rebecca Baldwin Zap2it.com Kyra Sedgwick's character is unlike any other on TV. She is the moral and emotional center of this multi-dimensional drama. Aug 14, 2018 Full Review Robert Canning IGN Movies With the absence of [the] tension-filled undertones and conflicts, this episode comes close to falling into standard crime procedural territory. Rated: 6/10 Jun 9, 2006 Full Review Read all reviews

Charyl R I rewatch random episodes through all seven seasons but the second season is my favorite. The stories are well written, the character development is fun and I just enjoy the last three episodes immensely. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews
