Critical Reception
"Yes, legal thrillers continue to populate the airwaves, but none of the others can boast the skillful writing, eerie camera work and sharp editing that makes "Damages" so riveting."The Washington Post: Thrilling Reparations in 'Damages' (January 7, 2009)"Yet despite smart dialogue and foreshadowing of conflict, there are doubts as to whether this is just another fictionalized legal show where the behavior is so unethical everybody should be disbarred by episode three."Variety: Damages Review (July 23, 2008)
"Close adds a generous helping of mommy issues, turning the best episodes of this thriller into Freudian nightmares."The Onion A.V. Club: Damages DVD Review (February 20, 2008)
