The Daily Beast Nick Schager

The show is at its finest when allowing its stellar cast to simmer, stew, and boil over with fury and agony, both alone and in the presence of each other. Read full review

The acting in Your Honor is fine, although it’s an interesting choice that neither Cranston nor almost anyone else attempts the Nawlins drawl. Read full review

Cranston is a fine actor — I wouldn’t have hated Walter White so much if he weren’t — but his commitment to the role sometimes boils over in ways that overwhelm the production, which is largely slow and often silent. ... Not everything I’ve seen so far feels completely believable. ... Notwithstanding the above reservations, it’s a solid production, with a universally talented cast. Read full review

Based on the first four episodes available for preview, “Your Honor” unfortunately doesn’t match the tension of that fateful early sequence. But the 10-episode series does serve up tasty performances, knotty ethical issues, attempts to explore racial injustice in the legal system, crime story theatrics and nagging questions about why its characters do what they do.

Bryan Cranston puts in a typically compelling Bryan Cranston performance. It’s really the only thing saving the show from being clichéd and dull. Read full review

“Your Honor” over-invests in tension and under-invests in compassion. Moffat’s story clouds the morality questions evoked by the title’s double meaning, and asks you to see yourself in its characters while fast-forwarding through choices that skew just how honorable our protagonists were in the first place.

Graphically violent and morose, it rubs our noses in the ugly side of humanity for no good reason, and for a legal thriller, it’s remarkably dumb, with its characters making unforgivably boneheaded decisions at every turn. Read full review

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I've seen the first three episodes and all they remind me of is Lie and Defending Jacob. Like just set in Nawlins instead (off-topic, but why does every show or movie set in NO have to beat you over the head with it's rustic, downhome charm? It's **** Nawlins. It speaks for itself. Every **** shop or restaurant doesn't have to be filled with Po-boys, jazz, and down home whatever).

I like Brian Cranston...as Walter White. I honestly have never seen him in anything else where I've enjoyed his performance (Malcolm in the Middle maybe, but too many times I had to see him in tighty whities). He fares no better here. And the son is a complete moron. Again, there seems to be a trope that every young man under 30 needs to be a whiny, shoegazing, uber-sensitive waif looking for beauty in the world. And that's what this kid is. I know no parent would want their son, especially one like this, to go to jail, and in this case, he likely wouldn't, but I want this kid to go to jail. Everybody else is just there; playing their stereotypical NO roles.… Expand
