The McCallisters are an Irish-Catholic family from New York's Hell's Kitchen, whose strained family ties sometimes test their loyalty to one another. The five siblings could not be more different, yet they put aside their petty conflicts to maintain their closeknit clan.
Trinity — Season 1

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Trinity aims for authentic drama, but strikes out with its overload of Irish stereotypes, New York City tropes, and an overstuffed ensemble that doesn't allow for any performances to stand out.

John Carman San Francisco Chronicle In its favor, Trinity has an impressive cast -- even if one McCallister doesn't bear the slightest family resemblance to another -- a decently literate script and the lively terrarium that is New York. Jun 21, 2019 Full Review Tom Shales Washington Post A basic problem is Trinity's attempt to touch all bases, and that includes bases touched by countless shows that have preceded it. Jun 21, 2019 Full Review Hal Boedeker Orlando Sentinel ER executive producer John Wells offers this disappointing family drama about an Irish clan. Jun 21, 2019 Full Review Tom Jicha South Florida Sun-Sentinel It has neither the emotional wallop nor the well-drawn characters of ER. However, [producer John] Wells' follow-up to TV's most popular show is decent soap opera -- a less glossy Dallas. Jun 21, 2019 Full Review Gloria Goodale Christian Science Monitor A slogging New York-based family melodrama full of every cultural cliché. Jun 21, 2019 Full Review Scott D. Pierce Deseret News (Salt Lake City) This is a show that needs a lot of work. It's full of every Irish stereotype you can think of; it's rather convoluted and confusing; and it just doesn't seem real. Jun 21, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
