[Peter] Weller is nice to watch, especially when he responds to an inane remark by initially speaking quietly before blowing up in the person's face. Go to Full Review M.S. Mason Christian Science Monitor 11/22/2019
For sci-fi buffs, or any action-adventure connoisseur, the highly atmospheric and smart "Odyssey 5" is appointment television. Go to Full Review Scott D. Pierce Deseret News (Salt Lake City) 11/22/2019
The premiere, which runs about twice as long as the normal 45-minute episode, is at least mildly intriguing. But while "Odyssey 5" might have made a decent cable movie, whether this can hold up on a weekly basis is highly questionable. Go to Full Review John Levesque Seattle Post-Intelligencer 11/22/2019
In its 95-minute premiere, "Odyssey 5" lacks the chemistry that made "The X-Files" irresistible in its early years. But the story alone -- rife with opportunities for redemption, renewal and recovery -- is seductive enough to warrant another visit. Go to Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette 11/22/2019
