It's a straightforward family-sitcom dynamic, loaded up with endearing eccentricity. ... These are rich characters in absurd situations full of quotable dialogue. ... The Great North could be one of the norths. Greats, I mean, greats!

You won't need a matchmaker to find the greatness within North. [15-28 Mar 2021, p.11]

By Matt Roush FULL REVIEW

New York Magazine (Vulture)

Feb 12, 2021

The Great North is often clever, performed by actors with distinctive voices that give the characters fully formed personalities, and about people trying to be good to each other while living in an out-of-the-ordinary place.

By Jen Chaney FULL REVIEW

Slant Magazine

Feb 12, 2021

As it explores the idiosyncrasies of the Tobins and their environment, however, the series starts to display its own distinct charm.

By Niv M. Sultan FULL REVIEW

Pittsburgh Tribune-Review

Jan 1, 2021

A winning, offbeat animated comedy.

By Rob Owen FULL REVIEW

The Hollywood Reporter

Jan 3, 2021

Four episodes isn't enough to know if the show will settle for being Bob's Burgers as reimagined by somebody who just watched Northern Exposure. Then again, with memorable characters (captured in that familiar Bento Box Entertainment style), running credit gags and catchy episode-closing songs, I don't think Bob's Burgers as reimagined by somebody who just watched Northern Exposure would be such a bad thing anyway.

By Daniel Fienberg FULL REVIEW

The Great North has some work to do to get to the level of its cousin shows, Bob’s Burgers and Central Park. But with a great voice cast and Bouchard overseeing things, it should get there eventually.
