    It takes a group of such experience to handle the series’ delicate balancing act, which sustains both heart-pounding suspense and wry humor for impressively long stretches of time. .... Widow’s Bay may not make the best tourist destination, but I’d happily make a return trip.

    An absolutely stellar supporting cast, including Stephen Root, Jeff Hiller, Dale Dickey, Kingston Rumi Southwick and, especially, Kate O’Flynn, perfectly balances the comedy and the horror. Both are earned. The scares are legitimate, and sometimes the look on Rhys’ face when he is processing something hilariously dumb is just laugh-out-loud funny.

    Dippold and lead director Hiro Murai unleash the comedy version of Rhys in many wonderful ways. Tom is so obviously in over his head, and so easily panicked, that it's hard to hate him even as he keeps putting other people at risk.
