Steve Greene IndieWire 01/28/2022
The show isn't as intimate in scale now as in its opening season, but Beforeigners does understand the power in a high-premise sci-fi concept. Go to Full Review

2/5
For every good episode and brilliant idea, Beforeigners splurges on a dozen terrible ones. It’s a maddening mess that can’t decide who it’s aimed for, or what it wants to be. Go to Full Review
Dustin Rowles Pajiba 01/31/2022
The once simple show about mismatched cops pulls out its Rimbaldi far too soon and gets mired in timey-wimey sci-fi elements and alternate realities that bury even the Jack the Ripper investigation. Go to Full Review
Natalia Trzenko La Nación (Argentina) 01/10/2022
The differences in the "degrees of civilization" of those who are forced to live in the city are once again at the center of the story both as humorous relief and to add suspense and intrigue. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Kathy H @RT99708750 01/01/2023 Loved both seasons of this funny, thought provoking and on occasion deeply moving show. I hope we get more seasons, but if not, I'll be content with the two superb seasons I was given. Season 2 wrapped things up nicely on one level, but I believe there's lots more in this world to explore. See more 07/03/2022 Amazing show. The combination of time periods is fascinating. The clash of history is very entertaining. See more grey g @greygalah 07/03/2022 Magnificent. This has to be the most interesting, well acted, original, thoughtful, surprising and often quirky and funny tv show i've seen. I can find no flaws except my inability to read faster. At times it can be incredibly sensitive, while maintaining the cynicism to rip the veil from our pretension and show awkward human traits as well as trash revered historical characters. I started watching season one and could stop until the end of S2. See more 04/20/2022 The ending of second season was a real surprise, I really did not see that coming. I can't wait to see a Season three. Really good acting from the two main stars, especially the female lead. See more Rudy A @RT31870702 02/03/2022 So much better than season one. Just six episodes, but Krista Kosonen really gets to shine as she experiences some peculiar brain changes which are key to solving the season's central mystery about the return of Jack the Ripper. It's so refreshing to be left wanting more. Too many series of late seem to be stretched out to fill a certain number of episodes. Nothing's worse than having invested five hours in a show, still wanting to see how it wraps up, but caring less and less as it jumps shark after shark. Hoping for a Season 3. See more 01/25/2022 Great concept and interesting characters. Watch in the original language with CC in English. See more Read all reviews
