What to Know

Critics Consensus

The Madison may not be an all-inclusive stay, but it offers a top-tier Michelle Pfeiffer, beautiful East Coast locations, and an expansion of the Taylor Sheridan universe, which is satisfying enough.

Yes, these women are ridiculous, as many of Sheridan’s women are. But, after so many seasons of the rich Duttons playing country on their show, there is something purifying about the divisions Sheridan sets out to explore in The Madison. Go to Full Review
David Bianculli NPR Mar 30
Some scenes and concepts in The Madison are absurd in the extreme, like the idea that the streets of New York are more dangerous than any wild west. But there also are moments of true beauty and calm. Go to Full Review

Michelle Pfeiffer enters the Taylor Sheridan universe in stellar form even when he sinks her in a Montana vs Manhattan grudge match that’ll bore you breathless. Go to Full Review

Watch it for Michelle Pfieffer. She’s simply divine. Go to Full Review
Kyle Wolfe Pop Culture Leftovers May 30
Rather than relying on the explosive confrontations that often define Sheridan’s larger universe, The Madison finds its power in quieter, more introspective moments. Go to Full Review

4/10
The female characters are very whiney and they only care about money and looks. Taylor Sheridan is so talented but seems to have a block when it comes to writing female characters with any kind of depth. Go to Full Review

Madge P @Madge401 3d Very slow, very character-driven, and definitely not for everyone. I wasn't hooked immediately, but somewhere around the middle I realized I actually cared about these people. See more Cathleen H @Catyzcalo 4d A really nice slow-burn drama with beautiful scenery and a surprisingly emotional story. It takes a while to get going, but I was definitely invested by the end. See more Robert G @trextomatoe 6d Really enjoyed this show. Michelle Pfeiffer and Kurt Russell were fabulous. Will Arnot was great too I thought. The entire cast was great. Michelle was amazing actually. Beautiful, mountains/New York clash is cool. See more Faron P @RT98703041 Aug 8 The music during advertisements for this show is quite literally the worst music ever made See more Joanna S @Joanna940 Aug 6 Its OK, full of annoying characters but for Pfeiffer and Will Arnett (final episodes) stand out. See more Lynn A @RT47234848 Aug 6 Beautiful story about the loss of your soul mate... it engages you so much in Stacey's grief that by the end you feel her need to be back in Montana.
