	Media	Author	Review
		Stuart Jeffries The Guardian	"[3rd Season Review]: Never mind the murder investigation: the will-they won’t-they relationship between the two detectives is the beating heart of this Robert Galbraith adaptation (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Jasper Rees Telegraph	"[3rd Season Review]: Rowling's impassioned feminism and cancel-culture backlash remain (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Stuart Jeffries The Guardian	"[2nd Season Review]: I don’t believe either of these characters could solve a mystery to save their lives (...) But Tom Burke was wonderful (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Carol Midgley The Times	"[2nd Season Review]: a meandering, cliché-ridden muddle that sacrificed plot for the protagonists’ thwarted love story"
		Inkoo Kang The Hollywood Reporter	"The seven-part Cinemax miniseries is certainly handsome and well acted. It's also brutally tedious."
		Mike Hale The New York Times	"[The mysteries] are convoluted in conception and prosaic in presentation (...) If you’re not a stickler for logic, 'C.B. Strike' offers other pleasures"
		Matt Roush TV Guide	"The disparity between Strike's melancholy disposition and robin's sunnier outlook makes for enjoyable teamwork"
		Steve Greene IndieWire	"These seven hours can’t help but feel burdened by their origins, even if it’s a formula completed in a generally competent way."
