Though Between doesn’t belong among the most ambitious shows on that roster, it knows what it wants to do and sets about doing it efficiently, effectively and with a minimum of fuss. Read full review

It's too early to tell where Between will take us. But it's off to a great start. Read full review

The pilot does the work of introducing the ensemble of characters, but spends so little time with each of them that when it builds to a cliffhanger in which one of those characters is imperiled, it doesn’t feel any more important than the frequent deaths of the adult characters. Read full review

Brian Lowry

There’s an “Under the Dome”-type vibe to the situation--especially with those tall, barbed-wire fences that immediately sprout up--with a “Lord of the Flies” wrinkle. That all has to be taken on faith, however, given the messiness of the premiere, which races about introducing undistinguished characters whose subplots have yet to connect. Read full review

The town is lovely, the premise solid if overfamiliar, but the script lacks both depth and tension (big problem), and McCurdy is one of the few cast members who can act. All of which makes it difficult to care very much. Read full review

A post-apocalypse is only as interesting as the people left behind, and these are all a bland, badly acted bunch. Read full review

It is flat, filled with some surprisingly horrible performances sketching two-dimensional characters. Read full review

I'm super excited for the second season to debut in May 2016, this show is AWESOME, I love every bit of it! Netflix is to be congratulated, as always making series that appeal to everyone.

I don't understand why some people are hating on this show. Maybe I can understand if they only saw the first episodes of June 10, there are 3 episodes out and I don't think any of them were bad. The third episode is by far the best. Not a waste of time at all for me, but that's just myI don't understand why some people are hating on this show.

This show is amazing, but sometimes the characters simply don't react to some bad situations. They just stare and then turn away like nothing happened.

Where to begin? I binge watched the series. And pretty sure i am done with it. Sparse storyline, bad writing and bad actors make this a forgettable show. No depth to the characters, confusing storyline and what is it with the different camera angles. It has an Under The Dome feel with asWhere to begin? I binge watched the series.

Production value looks decent, but the characters are unconvincing, the acting is bland, people start dropping dead and nobody's panicking about it... took me all of 30 minutes to realize this show is pure crap.

They pretty much copied the book series Gone by Michael Grant, what great creativity Netflix.... They pretty much copied the whole plot from the book.

Truly terrible show. Netflix should have hired better actors and better writers for the show. In my opinion, the lead actors voice is extremely annoying, and none of the actors apparently have experienced death, due to the ho-hum reactions to their loved ones dying in front of their eyes.Truly terrible show.
