David Hinckley

Apr 15, 2013

Sunday’s opening of season five proves again that Falco makes this show, primarily by connecting all the passageways between comedy and tragedy. Read full review

Matthew Gilbert

It’s honest, credible, trustworthy storytelling. Read full review

Emotionally, the show's been downward-spiraling for so long, it needs a break from all the bleakness. But the introductions of two new doctors should pep things up. [12 Apr 2013, p.69]

Tom Gliatto

Apr 11, 2013

The ensemble remains perfect, but the show's matter-of-fact crispness has been dulled. [22 Apr 2013, p.46]

Zap2it (Inside the Box) Geoff Berkshire

Apr 15, 2013

But when a show reaches the level that Nurse Jackie did in Season 4, reverting to cruise control isn't enough--and Jackie is just coasting through its new run. Read full review

Verne Gay

Apr 10, 2013

Falco--as always--remains one of TV's bright shining lights, but her Nurse Jackie suddenly feels like a work in progress. Read full review

Brian Lowry

Apr 12, 2013

Jackie remains watchable thanks primarily to Falco, although the best moments are almost invariably dramatic, not humorous. Read full review

It's a good, but not great season of Jackie, that is a step down from the tremendous season four. We focus on Jackie's sobriety. But we're introduced to lousy new characters (Carrie) while great ones (O'Hara) go away. The finale is pretty great, but nothing happens for episodes at a time.It's a good, but not great season of Jackie, that is a step down from the tremendous season four. We focus on Jackie's sobriety.

I'll definitely keep watching in season six.… Expand
