Season 1 Review:
I liked Claws’s sun-baked Florida setting, and the way the cameras capture the difference between the inside warmth of the nail salon versus the harsh ugliness of store-front life outside. And Nash is really excellent, rendering Desna in all her tough, vulnerable, shrewd complexity. The writing of the show needs to become as complex as that character.

Season 1 Review:
Bad things happen, and in a wise choice by the producers, they happen before the end of the first episode. The show gets more interesting at that point, but it’s still caught somewhere on the road from feminist buddy comedy to bloody drama--and it’s not quite credible as either.

Season 1 Review:
The parade of outlandish characters zipping in and out of their lives is distracting enough to confuse the atmosphere. As such, Claws isn’t fully realized as either a drama or a comedy, and its attempts at incorporating some version of the latter appears to be unintentional.

Season 1 Review:
With its crowded field of producers (including Rashida Jones), Claws has a difficult time with coherence, feeling like a half-hour show that learned way too late that it was going to be a one-hour show. ... As Uncle Daddy, Norris is unfortunately more clownsome than fearsome, and, bereft of better writing, Nash leans too heavily on stereotype as a way to give her character a little more life.

Season 1 Review:
Claws works too hard to establish its outrageously raunchy, sordid edge. [12-25 Jun 2017, p.15]
