What to Know

Critics Consensus

Visually gorgeous and thematically ambitious, but ultimately void of cohesion, Gold Digger bites off more than it can chew.

7.2/10
Despite the series' other issues, if you don't fall in love with Ormond while watching it, you are the one who should be questioned. Go to Full Review
Dorothy Rabinowitz Wall Street Journal 05/01/2020
A blend of romance and mystery, borne up by delectable touches of soap opera, the series races along charged with suspense from the first of its six parts to the last. This is the gold in Gold Digger, and there's a lot of it. Go to Full Review
Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) 02/05/2020
3/5
Creator Marnie Dickens has fashioned a narrative that gives you just enough information to come up with the wrong answers even as you're buffeted by the personal flourishes. It's not subtle, but it's effective. Go to Full Review
Joel Keller Decider 05/12/2020
Stream it, but only for Julia Ormond's fine performance and vulnerability. Go to Full Review
David Zurawik Baltimore Sun 04/10/2020
Julia Ormond is the one to watch in Gold Digger. She is in every frame that matters in this six-part series, and her performance never flags. Go to Full Review

02/19/2022 Kept me guessing to the last minute. It's wonderful to see one of my favorite actresses turn in a great performance, and a show that makes an older woman the center of romance and intrigue ibstead of the little ole gramma knitting up the corner. At the same time, Julia is a realistic depiction of 60, not like the unrealistic J. Lo image no one can be expected to attain. See more 09/29/2021 Worth watching for the acting, especially Julia Ormond's beautiful honesty and vulnerability and Ben Barnes' unsettling portrayal of a charming man pursuing a woman 25 years older than him. They have great chemistry and I kept wishing the director had focused more closely on them and less on the wider circle of people around them. The series prompts you to question your biases. Why is it so hard to believe that a man who never had a loving mother could find a mother figure in a partner (the way some young women have father figures)? Or could it really be that the age gap just doesn't matter to him? See more 10/06/2020 I loved this series. Julio Ormond was amazing. Ben Barnes was perfect as Benjamin. I thought they had really great chemistry. The show had sad moments but I think it showed that love is not easy. It is hard work and sometimes all that work pays off. I enjoyed having each episode told from the different character's perspective. I recommend this series. See more 08/08/2020 Brilliant production with extraordinary acting, screen play and revelatory depiction of the romantic yearnings of a mature woman. See more 08/05/2020 I tried really hard to like this series. It was passable, but it kept you wanting it to get better. It was somewhat hard to overlook the age gap, and stigma surrounding older women/younger men. Why shouldn't it be as accepting as the other way around? The storyline was a little forced, but overall, it passed the time. See more 06/27/2020 Saddened me, to see an old woman stay so blind to it all. A simple question of "would you sign a pre nup"would have said it all! Horrible movie , bad message See more Read all reviews
