Season 1 Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Mind-bending and dense and at times exhilarating...
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
It's a series that knows exactly what it wants to be and where it wants to go-the two precise things that elude its protagonist, who winds up at war with himself in ways that are both figurative and loopily literal.
Chicago Reader
Gregory Wakeman
This sci-fi thriller has its missteps, but powerful leading actors give it depth and resonance.
KKFI-FM (Kansas City)
Russ Simmons
Dark Matter" smartly deals with the themes of choice, identity and making the most of one's life.
Rolling Stone
Alan Sepinwall
Dark Matter was being developed as a movie at one point, and there seems just enough incident to justify two hours, particularly with a more dynamic version of one or both Jasons. Nine hours feels punishing.
indieWire
Ben Travers
It's unflagging gloom and one-note characters limit its capacity to shake anything loose within the audience, and I say that as someone who was ready and willing for the show to do exactly that.
Variety
Aramide Tinubu
Though Dark Matter is fine, it could have been genuinely thrilling if Crouch had trusted his audience without an extensive roadmap, letting his material and the stellar performances from the actors speak for themselves.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
"Dark Matter" asks us to consider our own dual natures and how they would be altered if our worlds were different.
Decider
Joel Keller
Dark Matter sets up a story that has a lot of science fiction intrigue, but makes it clear that it's more about the regrets of the people in its story than about the science itself.
IGN Movies
Samantha Nelson
The show delivers some really strong performances that bring home its emotionally powerful themes -- but like its world-hopping protagonist, it nearly gets lost along the way.
The Hollywood Reporter
Daniel Fienberg
It's a series that doesn't lack for ingenuity and, especially in the last two hours, ideas pop up that border on inspired, but the lack of tonal variation ultimately dooms Dark Matter.
Geek Vibes Nation
M.N. Miller
Dark Matter is a series ripe with possibilities and endlessly rich storytelling.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
A good idea has been stretched far past its breaking point, resulting in a show that spins its wheels so much that you'll get dizzy trying to stay engaged.
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
The main problem, which nags at this entire subgenre of science fiction, is the sense that nothing really matters, since every new door/chapter feels as if it's just a step away from being rewritten or undone.
io9.com
Cheryl Eddy
Dark Matter doesn't linger too much on trying to explain exactly how the box works. The show is way more interested in the emotional and psychological ramifications.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
There is a high level of suspense, tangible tension created by Jason's dilemmas and by the action-thriller aspects of "Dark Matter," and that the acting is first-rate.
Austin Burke/Flick Fan Nation
Austin Burke
Edgerton and Connelly are excellent, as the performances elevate the occasionally slow-moving storyline. The stress and slow-building intensity will inevitably have viewers locked in from week to week.
CBR
Martin Carr
Shouldered by a formidable Joel Edgerton and propped up by an outstanding supporting cast, Dark Matter hits the ground running and sci-fi fans would be foolish to miss it.
AV Club
Tom Philip
Dark Matter has a tremendous cast and high-concept intrigue which cover for some of the early episodes' bigger flaws.
Escapist Magazine
Matthew Razak
Dark Matter is a multiverse tale with enough thought to it - and enough clever plotting - to feel like something fresh in a world where infinite multiverse stories seem to be getting stale.
