Howard Rosenberg Los Angeles Times 06/12/2019
Although the opening story plays out somewhat illogically and clumsily, Reasonable Doubts has the essential elements of an appealing crime-based character study. Go to Full Review Tom Shales Washington Post 06/12/2019
Reasonable Doubts tries to deal with the character's deafness intelligently and without any condescending pathos. Harmon, who has usually been painfully callow in TV and movie roles, shows some heretofore unplumbed depths here. Go to Full Review Rick Kogan Chicago Tribune 06/12/2019
The show treads an awkward line between the glib and the gritty, and Harmon has a hard time making us believe that he is hard-nosed Go to Full Review Alan Pergament Buffalo News 06/12/2019
Writer-director Robert Singer has given the show a dark, gritty look, but you can see and hear the pilot's ending coming from miles away. Go to Full Review Michael Hill Baltimore Sun 06/12/2019
Matlin and Harmon give people a reason to tune in. It's up to Butler and crew just not to give them a reason to tune out. Go to Full Review David Zurawik Baltimore Sun 06/12/2019
Matlin, who won an Oscar for Children of a Lesser God, builds a great performance out of half a dozen small moments she makes snap, crackle and pop in a way you won't see elsewhere on TV. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
