Critic Reviews

Season 1 Review:
What "Trial by Media" does exceptionally well is distill, in under an hour, the "big takeaways" from each episode. It's similar in format to Netflix's "Dirty Money." ... The series is missing an overarching synthesis about how or why viewers should reinterrogate their relationship with crime and court television, especially in the age of true crime.

Season 1 Review:
At no point in the elegantly structured, deeply researched docuseries does the creators’ point of view come into focus. ... What’s missing is synthesis. Each episode tracks how attorneys, activists and other interested parties interact with the media. Sometimes, it’s illuminating. ... More often, causes and effects remain fuzzy. The series neither creates a timeline nor makes an overarching argument.
