Kirsten Clark, who has been recruited to join a covert government agency, has a special ability. Kirsten is able to be "stitched" into the minds of people who have recently died to use their memories to investigate murders. Taking advantage of Kirsten's ability is Maggie Baptiste, who leads the secret program in which Kirsten works alongside neuroscientist Cameron Goodkin, who is passionate about the work the group does. Other members of the team include socially awkward communications technician Linus Ahluwalia and Kirsten's roommate, computer science grad student Camille Engelson. When things go well, the team is able to use the "stitching" to solve mysteries that otherwise would have gone to the grave with the victims.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Confusing and tonally inconsistent, Stitchers is neither campy enough to be fun nor intelligent enough to be compelling.

A missed opportunity, Stitchers is looking for signs of life, but hasn't found them yet. Go to Full Review Kate Kulzick AV Club 06/03/2015

Stitchers oscillates between embracing the premise's inherent campiness or eschewing it in favor of a more intense quasi-realism. There are other inconsistencies as well. Some of the visual effects are creepy and effective; others are laughable. Go to Full Review Gail Pennington St. Louis Post-Dispatch 06/02/2015

The audience is expected somehow to understand the range of her abilities, but sorry; we need more clues. That, and a reason to care. Go to Full Review Charlie Jane Anders io9.com 03/12/2019
All in all, this show is a mess, and watching it will be sort of a meta experience - because this show feels dead on arrival, and you, the viewer, will be entering into its dead consciousness and experiencing its moribund storytelling. Go to Full Review Kaitlin Thomas TV.com 06/05/2015
The first episode of Stitchers was... a clichd mess full of forced performances. Go to Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette 06/04/2015
Mostly "Stitchers" is a ho-hum procedural with an unlikeably emotionless lead character with daddy issues and the promise of hanky-panky with a not-nerdy scientist, so, hooray? Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Gerardo M @RT86052265 01/08/2023 Nice CSI type series, where a girl wearing a catsuit helps solve murder crimes mysteries by navigating through dead people's memories whose synaptic patterns are captured using some fictional hi tech technology that is used on the brains of the dead victims. I would recommend season 1 so far.... See more 06/27/2017 The basic idea is very interesting however since it's on freeform it has that teeny bopper vibe and the characters are very generic and uninteresting. I feel like if this show was on a different channel and didn't have to pander to freeform's audience then it could be a very, very solid show See more 03/19/2017 I love, love, love this show. It is different than most shows and more interesting because it is not the same old tv shows regurgitated over and over with different characters. Thank you - please keep it on. See more 07/15/2016 I adore this show!! I may have only saw the first 4 episodes so far but it is enticing! From the first episode I craved more information about all the characters, well done Free Form! See more 07/14/2016 I love this show sooo much. I don't like to rewatch many shows or movies, but this show made the rewatch list. See more 06/12/2016 i love this show please have a third season See more Read all reviews
