What to Know

Critics Consensus

Grounded by a career-best Kate Winslet, Mare of Easttown's ambitions at times exceed its reach, but its central mystery is supported by such strong sense of place and character it hardly matters.

Oscar T @ScarfaceRampage Aug 28, 2026 Great show and acting from Winslet See more Sean W @seanwang.94 Aug 1, 2026 Kate Winslet does a great job. Gritty and real. Loses itself towards the end so its not as cathartic as it could be but very strong. See more J H @UpstateNYThriller Jul 22, 2026 7/10 Limited series About local cop in Delco Pennsylvania. Her son killed himself and there’s someone who killed this young girl. Lots of turns on who you suspect turns out it was an incest cousin. Not a good look for Delco Pennsylvania See more Mr O. @MrOwnage Jun 27, 2026 Solid show. Couple too many twists at the end, but very enjoyable See more Carlos S @RT86990596 May 21, 2026 Atrapante desde el minuto 1, la actuacion de la Kate Winslet es magistral y me recordo a la Temporada 4 de True Detective "Night Country" y el personaje de Jodie Foster, Las dos respiran esa atmosfera pesada y tragica a la ves con una carga imponente poniendose toda la serie a sus espaldas, La trama no te permite sacar conclusionees anticipadas y algunos giros de Duion te dejan pensando "y Ahora a quien culpamos." Altamente recomendada, Brillante See more Finn E. @Finn2Win19 Mar 25, 2026 Fantastic. I think about this show all the time. It lives in my bones. See more Read all reviews
