Season 1 Review:
“Panic” is too thick with soap operatic twists that derail the honest emotion that could have emerged from this concept, one that merges typical teen rebellion and ambition with something new. Every time it pivots back to straightforward YA drama, especially in the truly poor scenes with Heather’s mom, “Panic” succumbs to mediocracy. And yet there are elements in the cast and high concept that keep it watchable.

Season 1 Review:
There is negative chemistry between Heather and Bishop, but as the other side of the love triangle, Welch and Nicholson do what they need to do to sustain the first half of the season, which prioritizes sexual tension over full booby-trap horror. ... The final episodes descend into total incoherence.
