Season 1 Review: FX may have struck dramatic gold again. This series is mesmerizing. It sucks you in like a good book and has you yearning for more. Read full review

Season 1 Review: What could be a relentlessly grim procedural (again, "The Killing") is instead a compelling drama that works (so far, at least) on a number of levels: as a mystery, as an idiosyncratic buddy story, and as a textured sociopolitical treatise. But don't let the latter scare you off. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The Bridge doesn't overwhelm with information--as too many cable shows do--but it does shock with revelations that fit nicely into the gameplan. Kruger and Bechir are fine leads, too. Read full review

Season 2 Review: It moves along with purpose and energy, but it's often at its best when finding colorful details and or allowing small, telling moments to breathe. Read full review

Season 1 Review: It’s hard to say where The Bridge is going, but so far it looks like a trip worth taking. Read full review

Season 2 Review: Marco Ruiz and Sonya Cross' odd-couple pairing often mirrors the relationship between reporters Adriana Mendez (Emily Rios) and Daniel Frye (Matthew Lillard), and I still find all of them interesting, even if I'm a little concerned that their parallel story lines may take The Bridge too far again this season.

Season 1 Review: Although there are elements here that merit continued attention, most notably Demian Bichir as a dedicated Mexican cop, there are too many missteps to ensure safe passage. Read full review
