The deeper Mickey digs into the corruption of her city, the better we understand her own sorrows and regrets in a suspenseful tearjerker. [24 Mar - 13 Apr 2025, p.4]

Long Bright River, whose eight-episode season will stream in full on March 13, is neither a transcendent nor an incompetent example of this type of show. But in its familiarity, it illustrates the limitations of the popular fantasy that one extraordinary woman can right the entrenched wrongs of a broken patriarchal institution.

“Long Bright River,” created by Nikki Toscano (“The Offer”) and Liz Moore and based on Moore’s novel, neglects credible crime solving in favor of gothic melodrama that jumps between clichés of family reconciliation and feminist empowerment. The emotional logic changes from scene to scene, while Mickey mostly reads as bottled up, evasive and uninteresting; the one-note character makes minimal use of Seyfried’s abilities. (Pinnock, Harriet Sansom Harris, as Mickey’s landlord, and Perry Mattfeld, as one of the prostitutes, do good work.)
