Critics Consensus

Despite a likeable, intelligent cast, Trust Me's storytelling feels familiar and dispassionate.

Brian Lowry Variety "Trust Me" qualifies as an underwhelming addition to the Turner channel's portfolio - worthy perhaps of a spot in the bullpen if the Mason-Conner dynamic evolves, but hardly a candidate for that big corner office. Oct 11, 2019 Full Review Belinda Acosta Austin Chronicle [Griffin] Dunne and [Eric] McCormick have an easy rapport, and it's their relationship that seems the most grounded and rich with possibility. Oct 11, 2019 Full Review Nancy DeWolf Smith Wall Street Journal Everything happens quickly -- scenes, cameos, comments and quips fly by. But nothing is throwaway or stupid, and in the midst of laughter, the emotion, when it comes, feels real. That's good acting. Oct 11, 2019 Full Review Alan Pergament Buffalo News The cast is the show's saving grace, even if the extremely likable [Eric] McCormack and [Tom] Cavanagh just seem to be essentially copying elements and rhythms of their past performances. Rated: 3/4 Oct 11, 2019 Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Growth is necessary for any network but it's often accompanied by growing pains and that's certainly the case with "Trust Me," a not-bad/not-great series that's more interesting for the ideas it puts forth than it is Oct 11, 2019 Full Review Tom Jicha South Florida Sun-Sentinel Unless you have an aversion to [Tom] Cavanagh or [Eric] McCormack this is a show you ought to at least try. Trust me. Oct 11, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member This was terrific, think you know how this is going to go? Then think again, without giving away anything, there's a lot of shock moments that you wouldn't expect. This series keeps you on your toes and constantly guessing what's going to happen, the producer did a terrific job of portraying her fears onto the audience as you felt every moment that Ali did. Jodie did a terrific job in her doctor role before becoming the real Doctor this year. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
