Season 1 Review:
This is less Big Little Lies and more Desperate Housewives, so The Hunting Wives offers nothing but escapism. Like the compulsively readable source material, it’s easy to get lost in the show and just as easy to put it out of your mind once it’s done. Sometimes that’s all TV needs to be.

Season 1 Review:
The characters are types, but the actors fill them out well, and the dynamic between Margo and Sophie really is … dynamic. Margo is intriguing because she’s hard to figure. .... But with only three episodes out of eight seen, it’s impossible to say where it’s all going — unless you’ve read the book, I suppose, but even then, you never know.

Season 1 Review:
A tale of red state-blue state culture clash, a premise that remains its most interesting element even after a dead body disrupts the proceedings. From that point on, the plot takes the reins for an addictive binge that nonetheless loses something by pivoting away from a compelling hook.

Season 1 Review:
To give credit where credit is due, at least Mulroney and Akerman are having a good time, with mostly solid accent work, making the best of the wobbly writing. .... “The Hunting Wives” is the latest mediocre drivel being pushed down the audience’s throat in the name of art.
