Mike Hale New York Times 08/04/2020
It starts out looking like one show, a sexy, light-hearted comedy about larceny, and ends up looking like another: a slightly more serious, and potentially irritatingly sentimental, dramedy about trying to go straight. Go to Full Review Katherine Stevens Slant Magazine 08/04/2020
3/4
Watching how the Wests attempt to navigate the straight and narrow could be hilarious, but there's little indication from the pilot of how future episodes will be structured . Go to Full Review Randee Dawn The Hollywood Reporter 08/04/2020
There's nothing really wrong with "Scoundrels," but it's just hard to see what's special about it, either. Go to Full Review Steve Marsi TV Fanatic 08/04/2020
2.5/5
The kids are seemingly clueless, fairly likable individuals, but should we root for them? For a pilot episode, the show's mere concept was left awfully blank/ambiguous. Go to Full Review Ed Bark Uncle Barky 08/04/2020

Whatever their ratings fates, both Scoundrels and The Gates register as much more than summer throwaways that weren't good enough to make the regular season cut. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
