What to Know

Critics Consensus

The Madison may not be an all-inclusive stay, but it offers a top-tier Michelle Pfeiffer, beautiful East Coast locations, and an expansion of the Taylor Sheridan universe, which is satisfying enough.

Yes, these women are ridiculous, as many of Sheridan’s women are. But, after so many seasons of the rich Duttons playing country on their show, there is something purifying about the divisions Sheridan sets out to explore in The Madison. Go to Full Review David Bianculli NPR Mar 30
Some scenes and concepts in The Madison are absurd in the extreme, like the idea that the streets of New York are more dangerous than any wild west. But there also are moments of true beauty and calm. Go to Full Review Peter Travers The Travers Take Mar 20

Michelle Pfeiffer enters the Taylor Sheridan universe in stellar form even when he sinks her in a Montana vs Manhattan grudge match that’ll bore you breathless. Go to Full Review Sarah Knight Adamson Sarah's Backstage Pass Apr 20
3.5/4
I appreciated what Taylor Sheridan is showing us through the Montana landscape and culture as it’s what farm girl Dorothy in the "Wizard of Oz" encounters, upon arriving in the land of Oz, saying, "Toto,"I’ve a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore." Go to Full Review Kate Sánchez But Why Tho? Apr 5
8.5/10
The plot moves from Manhattan and Madison Avenue to the Madison River valley of central Montana, but the emotion we see along the way makes The Madison the most relatable of Sheridan’s ever-growing list of Paramount+ series. Go to Full Review Susan Granger SSG Syndicate Mar 27
8/10
Taylor Sheridan scores again with this saga about the Clyburns. Superficially, there's lots of urban vs. rural conflict. Thematically, it's all about responsibility and relationships. Propelling the plot, Michelle Pfeiffer is magnificent. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Jim O @Nowone 18h Absolutely beautiful! See more Dennis W @RT35139119 1d Breathtaking scenery aside, this show is boring, the writing is mediocre and the acting well, I’ve seriously witnessed better acting in my Mother’s old a soap operas. See more Dillon4412 D @Dillon55 4d A good show. To much swearing. I think it could of just been a movie. Good acting. See more Travis S. @RT38691402 4d Boringgggg.

This is another great series. 👌 See more Elisha I @asapidox 5d Emotional, grounded, and really pulled me in. The slower pace worked this time because the characters and story hit. Strong performances and a solid overall journey. See more Read all reviews
