Season 1 Ratings & Reviews
Uncle Barky
Ed Bark
In the early going at least, Deep End is pretty much all over the place, veering from snarky to moderately sappy without making any of the principal characters resonate.
Newark Star-Ledger
Alan Sepinwall
Nothing I saw inthe pilot has me wanting to make room for it on an incredibly crowded Thursday lineup.
Variety
Brian Lowry
The main drawback is that ABC has dipped into this dramedic pool so many times that nothing here really distinguishes the show from its sundry predecessors.
IGN Movies
Amanda Sloane Murray
But based off the pilot alone, The Deep End is disappointingly shallow.
Salon.com
Heather Havrilesky
At first glance, "The Deep End" looks more like plastic food: shiny, colorful and perfectly appetizing, yes, but ultimately unsatisfying.
South Florida Sun-Sentinel
Tom Jicha
The legal elements of the busy premiere fall heavily into the bizarre... Instead of smiling at the outlandishness, you're more likely to roll your eyes at the absurdities.
HollywoodChicago.com
Brian Tallerico
Ultimately, everything about "The Deep End" feels not just like something we've seen done better before but something that was canceled for a reason.
AV Club
Emily St. James
But the overall impression The Deep End leaves is that it doesn't leave much of an impression. Because the show ends up trying to do so much, just about everything it tries to do comes off as flat.
San Francisco Chronicle
Tim Goodman
The Deep End is stupid. It is obvious and ridiculous and badly acted for the most part.
New York Times
Alessandra Stanley
"The Deep End" is a pale imitation without smart writing, imaginative casting or even a clever conceit.
The Hollywood Reporter
Randee Dawn
The show benefits from a true insider's feel of the biz, and that helps spackle over the softer spots. Given half a chance, "Deep" should get along swimmingly.
Slate
Troy Patterson
[A] show so thoroughly formulaic that you can learn all there is to know about its characters solely from sartorial (and tonsorial) cues.
Boston Globe
Matthew Gilbert
It's actually kind of depressing just how obviously "The Deep End'' has been constructed of used parts from the likes of "LA Law,'' "The Practice,'' "Boston Legal,'' "Damages,'' "Eli Stone,'' and "The Good Wife.''
Common Sense Media
Kari Croop
A few of the characters, at least, have the requisite amount of bite that it will take to win lovers of legal dramas over.
Los Angeles Times
Mary McNamara
ABC's "The Deep End" is being touted as a new "Grey's Anatomy" for lawyers, and frankly I think "Grey's" creator Shonda Rhimes should sue. Not for plagiarism but defamation
Newsday
Verne Gay
Nice cast. Otherwise, charmless. Airless. Lifeless. (Blah, blah and blah.)
Washington Post
Hank Stuever
The only good news about this show is that it appears to have a script and actors and sets, which means it's not a reality show or "The Jay Leno Show.
New York Daily News
David Hinckley
Trouble is, it doesn't feel all that fresh.
Austin Chronicle
Belinda Acosta
Yet, in spite of its primary-colored depictions, I actually like The Deep End. It makes me giggle. I'm not sure I'm supposed to be giggling all the times I find myself giggling, but I'm having a good time, nonetheless.

Honestly, Deep End is the type of high-gloss, dim-bulb broadcast hour that makes you despair for broadcast hours.
