Critic Reviews

Season 1 Review:
Suspense-building requires walking a line, though. If you spend too long getting to the point, the bubble you’ve inflated starts to lose air. That’s close to happening a couple of times, which is too bad, because when we get to the reveals, we’d like to still really care.

Season 2 Review:
Horror isn't a bad fallback, and it's effectively done, considering the limitations of broadcast TV. Yet it's not enough to fully transition the show away from its foundation or even mask that the excitement is gone. "Wayward Pines" isn't a horror show, and skirting the line between genres doesn't do its story any favors.

Season 2 Review:
The mix of premise restatement and story advancement is super clunky. Bigger worries: Patric's flat character and the lack of mystery and eeriness that kept you hooked last year as the story came into focus. [27 May 2016, p.54]

Season 2 Review:
The bottom line is that Wayward Pines has lost something in season 2, and it’s not any one shining, obvious aspect. The majority of its failings come in the recreation of its basic atmosphere, which has gone from effortlessly gonzo (cricket noise boxes!) to try-hard bland.

Season 1 Review:
When answers are provided--at length--the preposterous illogic is stupefying, not stimulating. [4-17 May 2015, p.12]
