	Media	Author	Review
		Daniel D'Addario Variety	"Zeta-Jones feels constrained by the show’s sensibility and its sour lack of ambition (...) [A] mismatch between star and show, one of the most striking in recent memory"
		Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"There's a potentially good show somewhere in 'Queen America', but the show is fighting with itself."
		Mark Perigard Boston Herald	"Along the way, there are some cutting observations about the pageant scene (...) In its own way, 'Queen America' is a beaut."
		Jen Chaney Vulture	"There’s a watchable spark in Zeta-Jones and something admirable in the respect that 'Queen America' shows to Samantha"
