What to Know

Critics Consensus

The Jetty serves as a solid showcase for Jenna Coleman's dramatic chops and has interesting insights into abuse, but its execution is too on the nose to excel.

Nick Hilton Independent (UK) Mar 12, 2025
3/5
The Jetty doesn’t reinvent the crime drama. In fact, it borrows widely from the BBC’s vast back catalogue. But the restrained and self-contained nature of the narrative, and its likeable protagonist, offsets most of that triteness. Go to Full Review Hugo Rifkind The Times (UK) Jul 19, 2024
The Jetty is that most unexpected of things; a Jenna Coleman vehicle that isn’t faintly disappointing. Go to Full Review Dan Einav Financial Times Jul 17, 2024
3/5
These challenging issues might have been better served by a straight drama rather than an uneven mystery yarn littered with clichés, contrivances, clunky exposition and thrillerish flourishes. Go to Full Review Lillie Rohan New Zealand Herald Jan 7, 2025
Between the 40 characters, like Manning’s humourous sidekick, Hitch, played by Archie Renaux, or even her airy-fairy psychic mother, Sylvia, played by Amelia Bullmore, if their own secrets don’t keep you intrigued, their effortless performances will.

2.5/5
A solid concept mixing a cold case with a current crime in a small town, but the storytelling falls short and becomes preoccupied with non-essential arcs, dragging down the drama and pace which is hampered by undynamic and one-dimensional characters. Go to Full Review Eilis O'Hanlon Irish Independent Aug 8, 2024
The Jetty had a few interesting themes bubbling under the surface about consent and (some) men's interest in teenage girls... But it wasn’t really enough to sustain interest in an otherwise rather humdrum plot. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Alain E @AlainE Mar 16, 2026 Failed to ignite after twenty minutes. Life is too short to keep watching this. See more Nigel B @ZeeGuys Sep 26, 2025 Absolutely fantastic..good luck figuring out who did it See more Kalissa H @kali_416 Sep 13, 2025 I don’t get the bad reviews, this was entertaining! The mystery was engaging and I really liked it. See more Kristyn M @Kenneth1984 Jun 3, 2025 Great acting, crap characters and plot. See more Christian C @RT19561793 May 18, 2025 There seem to be two types of people who really disliked this series… The men who’d be on the suspect board for statutories - and the adult women who still can’t admit that they were their underage marks. See more Theo S. Héro + @RT09212872 Apr 26, 2025 Very typical, rogue cop doing her own thing, disobeying orders/superiors. Lots of lesbian, teen sex suggestions.
