Critic Reviews

Season 1 Review:
Admittedly, the collusive relationship between Jake and Julia is a useful plot mechanism. It might even be credible if it weren’t for the fact the rest of the story is so junked up with eyebrow-raisers. Ultimately, the real reason Notorious is at least watchable is the cast. Perabo and Sunjata are magnetic in whatever they do, and they have great chemistry.

Season 1 Review:
Notorious is the perfect kind of easy-to-digest, fluffy drama series that doesn’t feel beholden to a deeply serious central event (a la Quantico or Designated Survivor), but whose attractive cast and confidence in its storytelling make it a worthy successor to glossy, fast-paced series like Scandal and How to Get Away with Murder.

Season 1 Review:
The concept is muddy, the twists are hokey, the Shonda Rhimes-esque tone and pace are exhausting, the compelling ethical questions about journalism and the law are unexplored, and the relationship between Sunjata and Perabo is smirky and unintentionally hard to understand.

Season 1 Review:
As silly and contrived as Notorious is, it might have worked as an end-of-the-work-week guilty pleasure if it were more fun, or more willing to wink at its own absurdity, or more something. Instead, it takes all of its poorly written media and/or legal manipulations so seriously that the only way to respond is with an eye roll and a yawn.

Season 1 Review:
A nearly wall-to-wall mess. ... Every convoluted plot twist of the pilot feels like an unnecessary embellishment on top of an already nonsensical premise--because the show also fails to explain why this producer and this lawyer being friends with each other is unusual or interesting.
