      hogrydr100 altho this show gets to the plot and end quickly, these are just "re-run" crimes that are years old and have already been seen on Dateline, First 48 hrs etc. with all the crime (murders) that happen daily in america, why cant they air crimes that havent been seen years ago on other networks? maybe because its easier to rehash old crimes which takes less effort on their part.

      Heather Havrilesky Salon.com Above all, its writers know how to get to the heart of the forces that are working on their characters, which makes this an unpredictable, funny and consistently entertaining drama. Jul 3, 2019 Full Review Linda Stasi New York Post It's all a bit ridiculous and the writing is scary, although the stars are first rate and the locales are pretty good too. Feb 5, 2019 Full Review Alan Sepinwall Newark Star-Ledger A definite for any summer TV To-Watch list; don't cross it off until you've seen at least one. Feb 5, 2019 Full Review Jonah Krakow IGN Movies A pilot episode can only do so much, and even with these problems, the bones of a solid show are there. Mary McCormack is a strong lead actress and the supporting cast has potential. Rated: 7/10 Feb 5, 2019 Full Review Kari Croop Common Sense Media with its unique take on girl power, In Plain Sight is likely to find an audience. After all, there aren't many other shows about a take-charge kind of woman who eschews power pumps for a gun and a sensible pair of shoes. Rated: 3/5 Feb 5, 2019 Full Review Michael Abernethy PopMatters With this shaded tone and careful plotting going for it, In Plain Sight is a welcome addition to USA's line-up of detective shows.
