	Author	Review
United States	James Poniewozik The New York Times	"[Crowe] loves his passionate underdogs too much to challenge them in the sustained way that serial TV requires."	NEU
United States	Hank Stuever The Washington Post	"The writing is clunky and often irritating. The acting is all over the place."	NEG
United States	Tim Goodman The Hollywood Reporter	"'Roadies' is a massively disappointing series in large part to the expectations that Crowe brings to it and much of its failings are directly linked to him since he's the creator, writer and director of much of the coming season."	NEG
United States	Maureen Ryan Variety	"Given the absence of an intoxicating atmosphere and the lack of dramatic momentum, episodes ramble on and on punishingly, like a jam band that refuses to leave the stage."	NEG
United States	David Wiegand SFGATE	"Perhaps the problem is that Crowe, who spent years covering rock music, knows too much about it. That could be the reason he assumes he doesn't need to flesh out the characters and create a dramatically sound plot to maintain our interest."	NEG
