Miniseries Reviews
The Daily Beast
Laura Bradley
Biel feels like the perfect choice to play Candace-charismatic, dizzying, and feral.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
Both Ms. Biel and Ms. Lynskey are terrific and have a lot to do in making their respective characters into real people... The actresses are both playing women strangled not just by their culture but their own personalities, but somehow make them sing.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
Biel and Lynskey are typically phenomenal.
The Playlist
Valerie Ettenhofer
The show just wants to tell a highly specific story-about one weird, somewhat inexplicable crime in the '80s-thoroughly and well.
Entertainment Weekly
Kristen Baldwin
All the performances are solid, but "quiet desperation" is a tough mood to maintain over five episodes - and an oddly sleepy one for a drama about a sensational scandal.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
One of the better crime miniseries, and one that's unconventional in important ways.
The Spool
Gena Radcliffe
[Candy] treats its gruesome, sobering subject with respect and seriousness, and the individuals involved as real people as opposed to caricatures and archetypes.
Slant Magazine
Will Ashton
Blending the mundane with the macabre, the true-crime series prefers to examine how lives are lived rather than how a life was lost.
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
The performances, starting with Biel and Lynskey, are sharp and convincing, and the unexpected turns down the stretch make this one of those fact-based productions where the less you know going in, the better.
Variety
Caroline Framke
[Market saturation] does present a challenge to every show in this vein to differentiate itself from the rest of the pack, and this one ultimately stumbles right when it really counts.
Salon.com
Melanie McFarland
Notwithstanding its many faults, Hulu's Candy assuredly understands the terror of the repressed housewife -- that which she feels, and that which she instills in others.
indieWire
Steve Greene
Biel is a major part of when "Candy" manages to pull off its own chosen balancing act. By the end of the show's five episodes, there's a Candy Montgomery at the center who feels capable of anything.
TheWrap
Karama Horne
"Candy" has a strong start, but with non-linear storytelling, languid pacing, and dangling plot threads, the script struggles to find its footing in well-trodden territory.
Pajiba
Sara Clements
"Candy" plays with our perceptions of what makes a murderer and our nature of being quick to judge, something Candy herself will also play with.
AV Club
Alison Foreman
A screamingly sexist limited series even the most fervent true-crime fans can safely skip.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Candy becomes a courtroom procedural in the later episodes, but it remains a fascinating psychological character study throughout.
Paste Magazine
Amy Amatangelo
The strength of Candy rests in this being an old crime that we know very little about. Being first out of the gate works greatly to Candy's advantage. The series will leave you with more questions than answers, right down to the kicker of a final line.
Hollywood Reporter
Angie Han
"That's it?" Betty asks incredulously near the close of the series, frowning at the pointlessness of it all. She might as well have been speaking for me.
Entertainment Voice
Alci Rengifo
Just when it seems like there was too much true crime overload in streaming, we get a series like Hulu's "Candy," again proving why the genre has become such a cultural obsession.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Roxana Hadadi
Candy is soundtracked by exasperated sighs.
