Season 1 Review: “Smith” is so thinly written, and the characters so generic, that it’s hard to feel much for this series except admiration for its cinematography. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Maybe they'll play up all the complicated marital undercurrents in future episodes, but given the emptiness of Bobby's character, it's hard to imagine that anybody would care. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The second and third episodes mostly felt like a retread of the pilot, with the same alluring but dangerous heist to execute, the same planning session between key players, the same conflicted feelings and suspicions. Read full review
