Season 1 Review:
Okonedo and Lester shine in their roles as marrieds and determined professionals; their performances keep the whole thing from completely going off the rails, even during the goofy conclusion. Undercover isn’t exactly a misstep for Moffat, but it does lack the focus we’re accustomed to seeing in his work.

Season 1 Review:
The complex plotting is a small hurdle at first, but [Peter] Moffat's talent is turning the arcane into intense and gripping human drama. [18 Nov 2016, p.53]

Season 1 Review:
Like both “Criminal Justice” and “The Night Of,” “Undercover” is concerned with the collateral damage wrought by the legal system, with its corrosive effect on lawyers, judges, defendants and, in this case, undercover cops. Unfortunately, these worthy and relevant themes get lost in the overgrown narrative weeds.

Season 1 Review:
The series starts strong as it establishes its hooks, but fails to stick any of its underwhelming climaxes. [7 - 20 Nov 2016, p.13]
