As leaps of faith go, yes. And faith--in visions both magical and musical--has everything to do with Eli Stone's divine appeal.
By Matt Roush FULL REVIEW

In this warm, charming episode, the underappreciated legal show proves it's still fit to practice.
By Tim Stack FULL REVIEW

Like most ABC shows, Eli Stone could stand to prune its cast and deepen its writing. But that's focusing on the glass half empty. So let's just be glad that this good-hearted show made it through the previous TV season and "Big Shots" didn't.

For now, let's leave concerns for the future to Eli. In the present, things are looking good.

Eli is hard not to like, whether or not you buy him as a prophet.
By Ellen Gray FULL REVIEW

A show with such a weird mix of tones and subject matters needs a strong cast to even have a hope of working, and for the most part, the ensemble remains sturdy.
By Alan Sepinwall FULL REVIEW

The series as a whole has a much better sense of itself, and a more confident tone, since Eli, his colleagues, and the viewers all understand that the guy is in fact a visionary. The coyness of season one is gone. The show, cocreated by Greg Berlanti, nonetheless falls short of being destination television.
