You have to see it to believe how perfect it is.

I expected it to be great, but not this perfect. It takes 'riveting' to a whole new level. The show manages to have so much going on but always kept me involved and wondering what these people were hiding, how they... Full review

Glenn Close sure knows how to pick her TV roles: after receiving Emmy nominations for her guest appearance on Will & Grace in 2002 and her one-season stay on The Shield in 2005, she scored once again by sticking with The... Full review
This is triple AAA television!

Wow, this series deserves an 11 because 10 just does not give it justice. I put this series on the same pedestal as Sopranos and Deadwood. Fabulous, intriguing, more addictive than crack cocaine (and better for you). I just cannot praise... Full review

What a pleasure to be drawn into a series by such intelligent writing and outstanding acting. I couldn't wait until the next episodes. I talked to several friends each week to prolong the pleasure. In a world fun of shamefully silly... Full review

The show opens with some time flips which are not as confusing as a lot of shows make them. It hooks me right in. The story then jumps back to a wedding where we meet Rachel Dawes. Glenn Close comes and... Full review

There is not one episode that was not filled with me wanting to see the NEXT episode! Some have commented that it is "fractured" in time...that is what makes it exciting - you can see WHY things happened and watch as... Full review

I just finished watching the finale of season one of Damages. All I can say is bring on season two! I missed the show when it originally aired and read about it later. I was fortunate enough to download the complete... Full review

No doubt that this show is one of the best ones I've seen in years, not for the story itself since it's not so probable to happen in real life for dirtier the legal world can be, but yes for the... Full review

Suspense from the first minute of the pilot to the last minute of episode 13. Don't trust anybody and nothing is what it seems. Very tricky story about law, murder and money and an excellent casting. It's not like other TV... Full review
Wow! Another Great FX Drama

Wow! FX has done it again! I didn't think they could come back with another show as great as The Shield, but they did it. Damages is compelling TV at its best, with enough twists and turns to satisfy the most... Full review

factor that makes "Damages" so compelling is not so much about plot as it is about character.....brutally ambitious, vengeful characters whose desires occasionally coincide with the greater good.....Character and plot, grand theme and nuance, they are the carpentry and artistry of great drama.... ...

Damages," at its worst, is still better than most scripted television on the air right now.....distracted from more intriguing, more current story lines.....Whoever it is, this is a relatively flimsy mystery on which to hang the season....Having a great cast member doesn't do much good....Olyphant's story arc has been totally listless.... ...

Michael Hart calls FX's "Damages" "an intriguing show filled with great actors - not only Glenn Close in the lead, but Rose Byrne is even better this year as the co-lead. I do not think it can go on for a third season with Byrne unsuccessfully out to get her without it being irritating. ... Full Review

Tate Donovan: I think he's better-looking than most of the people. You never know just how the producers are going to use it, but you just try to be as real as you can and as good as you can be in that scene. Donovan: Definitely, but it's good. ... Full Review

TV Guide Entertainment Network,
Tate Donovan: I think he's better-looking than most of the people. That's what keeps it exciting - you just don't know which character is going to do what. Our show is written and shot very last minute, and it's a crazy web that we weave. ... Full Review
