	Media	Author	Review
		Caroline Framke Variety	"[It] has a strong duo in Prince and Sturgess (...) The manner in which the twin mysteries of the present-day murder and the past kidnapping intertwine and unfold are a little too dark for kids yet far too simplistic for adults"
		Alan Sepinwall Rolling Stone	"[Prince] plays the fanciful premise (What if 'Veronica Mars', but tinier?) with such utter conviction that 'Home Before Dark' is appealing in spite of its flaws (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"
		Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"A good 10-episode watch — at times very good — (...) It's a story about a kid that doesn't treat its main character like a kid, but like a determined journalist who happens to have a very early curfew."
		Jesse Hassenger AV Club	"Considering that 'Home Before Dark' is, for the most part, terribly written on a scene-to-scene level, its central mystery does offer a compelling baseline for the season. "
		Joel Keller Decider	"A solid show (...) It’s one of those shows that you could probably watch in 3-4 good chunks ...), and it’s not a heavy mental lift. In other words, it’s a fine show to binge while you’re sheltering in place."
		Rosie Fletcher Den of Geek	"It’s not clear who this show is actually for. Nonetheless this is an entertaining and unusual series (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Karina Adelgaard Heaven of Horror	"The relationship in this family is simply wonderful. The relationship between the parents and their three kids (all girls) is very natural and realistic which is key to making this story believable (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"
