Daniel D'Addario

Ramón Rodríguez, playing the central detective, makes for a sympathetic and rootable figure. The challenge the show faces will be bringing the story up to his and his costars’ level. Read full review

While the procedural part of Will Trent needs a lot of improvement, the characters are so well-established from the start that the first two episodes are entertaining and make us want to see more. Read full review

Will is an engaging character who elevates his occasionally overheated eponymous crime drama with wry humor and sensitivity. [16 - 29 Jan 2023, p.6]

If Will Trent wants to cut through the noise of a crowded genre, it will need to reevaluate its storytelling approach and lean into the eccentricities of its promising protagonist. Read full review
