John Anderson Wall Street Journal 09/12/2024
There is a classic nighttime-soap-style ambience to this six-part season (with clearly more to come) and an ocean of narrative possibilities available with characters having so many problems and agendas. Go to Full Review Jack Seale Guardian 09/12/2024
4/5
In other words, Succession with salmon. But the series, created by Lilyhammer showrunners Anne Bjørnstad and Eilif Skodvin, feels very Norwegian in its outlook and humour. It is dry, wry and droll. Its rewards take time to earn. Go to Full Review Melissa Camacho Common Sense Media 09/25/2024
Granted, Billionaire Island is a little slow at first, but after a few episodes, and with a little patience, you'll discover a story world that delivers some laugh out loud moments that transcend any language. Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider 09/14/2024
Billionaire Island is just getting started setting up its soapy family rivalry story, and there’s enough there in the first episode to make us hope things will get better. Go to Full Review Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut 09/12/2024
3/5
Billionaire Island’s greatest trick is that nobody in it is that bad. The Succession comparison breaks down again when you realize this, that the show is taking a softer viewpoint that isn’t trying to relentlessly mock and condemn. Go to Full Review Archi Sengupta LeisureByte.com 09/12/2024
