Season 2 Review: Overall, The Last Thing He Told Me Season 2 is a lot more confident in taking risks, emphasizing the rarity of a follow-up that doesn’t just continue the story but energetically improves the entire show to date. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The series stumbles around for a few episodes while it establishes the Hitchcockian ambience (circa “Vertigo” and “The Birds”) and puts in place the clues to Owen’s past that will pay off in later revelations. (The seven episodes run from just 37 to 45 minutes, and the pace is generally brisk.) But it quickly gels into a better-than-average whodunit and a superior family drama, one whose denouement hits you with surprising force. Read full review

Season 2 Review: We’re still a little annoyed that the second season of The Last Thing He Told Me seems to serve up a thrill-light nothingburger of a story, but we still want to see the chemistry between Garner and Rice, which is the best thing about the series. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The drama may never get fully engrossing, but it’s perfectly watchable throughout — especially since much of the early action unfolds in a Sausalito floating home so pristine and pretty, Hannah and Bailey might as well be freaking out from within an Architectural Digest home tour. Under this tasteful gloss, however, is a pervasive sense of blandness — in the characters, their relationships and even, somehow, in the story’s unpredictable turns. Read full review

Season 1 Review: In terms of reasonably entertaining intrigue that doesn’t involve guns being waved in everyone’s faces, “The Last Thing He Told Me” gets the job done. And there’s a good chance you’ll have your laundry folded by the end. Read full review

Season 2 Review: Their [Hannah and Owen's] relationship is as nonsensical as the rest. Which isn’t to say there’s nothing to enjoy here. There’s a reason Jennifer Garner is famous. She’s able to make her character exude maternal care while also having a sociopath’s knack for lying and coming up with the right thing to say to get what she wants. Read full review

Season 1 Review: It also doesn’t help that Garner’s performance seems limited to a narrow range of expressions that reach from “confused” to “very confused”. ... The other characters are similarly underwritten and uninteresting, sometimes to an insulting extent. Read full review

This is incredibly boring, predictable, badly written. Sorry for all the talent involve.
