Season 1 Reviews
San Jose Mercury News
Chuck Barney
There is an unmistakable been-there-done-that feel to "Lie to Me." It's a basic procedural that seems so determined to replicate the successful playbook of shows like "The Mentalist" and "House" that it winds up telegraphing many of its moves.
Variety
Brian Lowry
It's hard not to be disappointed by the network allocating such plum real estate to another been-there, seen-that hour. Honest.
Orlando Sentinel
Hal Boedeker
I can't lie. I found Fox's Lie to Me, about a brilliant deception expert, to be predictable, standard fare.
New York Daily News
David Hinckley
Fox's new drama Lie to Me not only provides a good hour of television entertainment, it gives the viewer an intriguing "takeaway."
Boston Globe
Matthew Gilbert
if you're fascinated by the poker-game elements of crime-solving and a man obsessed with "tells," you may connect with this show.
USA Today
Robert Bianco
There's a fine cast.
San Francisco Chronicle
Tim Goodman
Lie to Me comes out of the box strong.
AV Club
Steve Heisler
But with enough body language books (and wholly original television) out there, it might be best to seek the truth elsewhere, unless you're willing to hold out for a bit.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Ellen Gray
"Lie to Me" is a terrific idea in search of a story that's a little more terrific than this one seems to be so far.
Chicago Tribune
Maureen Ryan
Crisply shot and well-paced.
Entertainment Weekly
Ken Tucker
If this review were a face, Dr. Lightman would say it had a forced smile: hopeful, but dubious, about Lie's chances.
New York Times
Ginia Bellafante
There is an appealing cheekiness to the show's insistence on dressing up hunch work as the purview of serious science.
New York Post
Linda Stasi
I'm not going to lie to you - Lie To Me, is not as good as they say it is.
Wall Street Journal
Nancy DeWolf Smith
As science, this is a slim reed indeed, but it can make stories go around.
TIME Magazine
James Poniewozik
Brisk, anthropological fun.
The New Yorker
Emily Nussbaum
The show is slack and often phony and stuffed with TV cliches.
Slant Magazine
Len Sousa
Lie to Me's science gimmick is sure to wane thin soon into its short first season, a truth that doesn't bode well for a series renewal.
The Hollywood Reporter
Ray Richmond
The stylistic underpinnings alone yield an intriguing mystery.
Newark Star-Ledger
Alan Sepinwall
If Lie to Me wants to elevate itself above all the other shows like it, it needs to beef up the quality of its mysteries.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Lloyd
Roth is a fine actor and a welcome presence on the small screen, and he manages to integrate a catalog of amazing facts into a character.
