Boss (2011) • Season 1 Ratings & Reviews
Philadelphia Inquirer
Ellen Gray
Plays out at on an operatic level that would satisfy all but the most bloodthirsty fans of The Sopranos.
IndieWire
Caryn James
Excessively lurid. Kane's family life begins with cliche. His marriage has deteriorated to the point where his wife (Connie Nielsen) is just political window dressing... Like Kane, Boss is dangerously close to losing control.
Slate
Troy Patterson
Boss is electric with self-importance, and that is in itself is a hoot, given its particular combination of thematic pomp and expressionistic pulp.
Wall Street Journal
Nancy DeWolf Smith
Every episode is packed with tense and vivid vignettes involving either the main plot - Kane's unrelenting pursuit of absolute control-or more than a dozen other, related stories.
Entertainment Weekly
Ken Tucker
Boss wants to be a Shakespearean tragedy, but it operates best as a swift melodrama.
HitFix
Alan Sepinwall
I still wound up thunderstruck by the actual work.
Newsday
Verne Gay
The Gus Vant Sant-directed pilot of what is easily the most important project in Starz history pulses with the sort of corruption that absolute power sires.
San Francisco Chronicle
David Wiegand
Boss is different: It's sophisticated, morally complex and just plain grown-up. If you didn't know better, you'd swear you were watching HBO.
Los Angeles Times
Mary McNamara
It's a solid enough formula, and if the writers have overly epic ambitions, they also have a collective eye for detail.
New York Daily News
David Hinckley
Boss rarely takes its foot off the accelerator and the filming style, with frequent lingering closeups of eyes or lips, magnifies the intensity.
Salon.com
Matt Zoller Seitz
There's so much to like here - so much to savor, remember and quote.
Boston Globe
Matthew Gilbert
The script is tight and ambitious, as it attempts to anatomize corruption in the big city.
New York Post
Linda Stasi
Lots of the characterizations work wonderfully, and the acting is fantastic.
Chicago Sun-Times
Lori Rackl
The cable network's political drama even has my vote for the best new show of the season.
Washington Post
Hank Stuever
It can also feel like a burden to watch. Everyone here is pretty despicable, which gets old quick.
Chicago Tribune
Steve Johnson
A powerful work of dramatic fiction, a wrenching story of power's last, acrid breaths, of the blood and darkness that gather around an unrelinquished throne.
The Hollywood Reporter
Tim Goodman
Boss is the kind of series that seems to have the "it" factor from the opening credits. High-quality emerging series often announce themselves with authority, so it's clear Starz has something special here.
HollywoodChicago.com
Brian Tallerico
A tonally inconsistent affair that nonetheless displays enough ambition that one could easily vote for it to return in the hope that it develops into the TV leader it could ultimately end up being.
AV Club
Emily St. James
Kelsey Grammer is fantastic, the stuff surrounding him is almost always compelling, and the nitty-gritty political stuff is (mostly) well-done.
AV Club
Meredith Blake
Boundless cynicism does not always make for quality television.
