Season 2 Review: As much Season 2 plays with the true meaning of “alchemy,” this show seems to already know the secret. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Where’s the hit man? The crime boss? The heist? That’s where most shows take their weirdness; we’ve been trained to expect a bigger hook. Lodge 49, on the other hand, remains utterly human in scope and ambition--funny and meandering. Read full review

Season 2 Review: Lodge 49 is a show that's all over the place and yet feels elegantly and confidently arced, rather than haphazard. It's silly and profound, deep and frivolous. It's impossible to describe, but whatever strange thing it is, it's a wonderful mindset in which to spend an hour a week, so I need you to start watching, because two seasons won't be enough.

Season 1 Review: Despite the show's topical, poignant portrayals of economic anxiety, however, it remains an airy affair: The workaday drama at Liz's restaurant unfolds as dark comedy, and the lodge offers Ernie and his fellow Lynx a fanciful escape from reality. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Like its protagonist, the series keeps finding beauty and splendor in the mundane. And there’s tremendous warmth in the bond between Ernie and this kid, and among all the Lodge members. Again, it’s slow. It’s strange bordering on self-indulgent. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Lodge 49 is funny, occasionally dark, and very unique, but beyond that, it’s hard to define. Whatever it is, it’s certainly different. And worth the journey. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Too much of Lodge 49 feels almost defiantly undercooked, like it’s trying too hard to capture a laidback SoCal vibe and purposefully avoiding structure and momentum. With so much television out there that even critics can’t keep up with all of it, there’s just not a compelling enough reason to check into Lodge 49. Read full review

Brilliant show about what really matters in life: human connection and the magic of life itself :) I have enjoyed both seasons tremendously!

Great little series that hits close to home for anyone that ever experienced the emptiness and aimlessness associated with losing a loved one. Well drawn supporting characters too.
