Notable Reviews
- "The acting is as good as you'll see on TV." - New York Post
- "Give Gilligan credit for a pilot, written mostly as one long flashback, that is suspenseful and surprising. Cranston is always fun to watch and Bad is no exception." - Hollywood Reporter
- "The show, so far, doesn’t have quite the right ingredients--it could use something more combustible in the mix." - Chicago Tribune
