	Media	Author	Review
		David Wiegand SFGATE	"The magnet is characters who speak intoxicatingly eloquent dialogue."
		Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"With Mickle and Damici in their comfort zone and Williams and Purefoy as key anchors, 'Hap and Leonard' should be a winner for SundanceTV."
		Maureen Ryan Variety	"This show should be a swampy, escapist saga with poignant overtones, but that version of the tale can only occasionally be glimpsed amid the overwritten dialogue and the stilted pacing."
		Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe	"'Hap and Leonard' turns into an unsteady but nonetheless engaging series."
		Mike Hale The New York Times	"The characters are appealing, if a little thin around the edges. The problem with the early episodes (...) has to do with a slow pace and a sameness that muffle the humor and menace we expect from smart noir."
