      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      There may be method to its madness, but La Brea simply doesn't commit to its insane premise hard enough to shake out a show worth watching - at least not yet.

      Landon M Season 1 is the lowest rated for me between Season 2 and 3, but there is something here I have enjoyed more than other shows I've watched recently. Yes, there are problems with the show. Why is everyone so clean and well groomed? Other than that, I've enjoyed the family dynamic. It makes me want to know what happens next. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/09/24 Full Review Sean A How did this show not get cancelled? This show has more plot holes the colander. The characters are annoying and pathetic... How did they all not win Darwin awards in the first episode? Terra Nova was cancelled after one season, which a much better show then this mess and - yet - somehow a production company thought sinking more money into this disaster was a good idea. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/24 Full Review Paul G How is this possibly still airing episodes? The actors must be embarrassed. What a train wreck of a project Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/24 Full Review Jennifer H We enjoy watching La Brea. Wish someone would consider making more seasons! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/18/24 Full Review Sohana A this show was trying so badly to be like Manifest. The 100 and Lost altogether but sadly ended up being so bad. The premise of the show wasn't bad but it was poorly executed. The acting was okay, but that girl who plays the daughter of the main character who doesn't have a leg is the worst actress ever. Some of her scenes are so horrendous I stg. The CGI in the show was bad so bad like please who are you fooling? I didn't even get attached to none of the characters. I only liked the Australian guy aka the Indian guy he was funny. I wouldn't trust anyone who says that is a good show that. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/15/24 Full Review Spike G Very dumb but interesting Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/28/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Hugo Rifkind Times (UK) Cut down on the cheese. Aug 5, 2022 Full Review Anita Singh Daily Telegraph (UK) If you’re happy with cheesy dialogue and characters having to run away from a CGI sabre-toothed tiger after falling into a giant sinkhole that is a portal to a prehistoric dimension, then this is the show for you. Rated: 2/5 Aug 2, 2022 Full Review Lucy Mangan Guardian To say the plot is by-the-numbers is to slander numbers. Rated: 1/5 Aug 2, 2022 Full Review Mel Campbell ScreenHub There’s a lot to enjoy here if you’re ready to check your skeptical brain at the couch … I hope that as La Brea relaxes into its storytelling, it accepts its own pulpiness more. Rated: 3/5 Aug 28, 2022 Full Review Pat Stacey Irish Independent What opens up on your screen, however, is not a sinkhole but a stinkhole, down which you’ll encounter the most idiotic plotting, coupled with the dumbest dialogue ever to emerge from a human mouth. Rated: 1/5 Aug 4, 2022 Full Review Dustin Rowles Pajiba La Brea is everything I could have hoped for, and so, so much more. It not only knows it's a Lost knock-off, one of the characters actually references it. Oct 12, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews
