Critic Reviews
Season 1 Review:
The series has a terrific snap to it, with an ear attuned to banter that touches on — and sometimes deflects — deeper issues. The combination works because it’s not glib, but a coping mechanism for both. ... The real revelation here is Washington, who is looser than ever.

Season 2 Review:
A running theme of the [first] season, just below the surface of the action, was Paige’s becoming more comfortable with her heritage. That idea is less present in Season 2, and some of the show’s urgency goes with it. The focus shifts away from the possibility of Edwin’s return to prison, and the effect that would have on Paige and her son, Finn (Faly Rakotohavana), and moves to more predictable sitcom dynamics.

Season 1 Review:
UnPrisoned feels at times like a series made of up of wrong choices on the way to finding the right one. But even in its flaws — or maybe because of them — the series finds intriguing depth in the messiness of lived experience, and the clear-eyed compassion of someone who’s worked through enough of it to grasp the difference between what people owe one another and what we want to provide for one another, between excusing someone’s bad behavior and forgiving it, between being right and being free.
