The doctor is here!!!
Flickering Myth
Martin Carr
Those who have yet to experience will look on with 'An Almost Religious Awe' as these writers continue passing comment on America whilst engaging, entertaining and challenging those savvy enough to pay attention.
Lainey Gossip
Sarah Marrs
[Cal's] revelation would have been stunning on its own, so well buried in the story and out of nowhere it is, but what really gives it power is how it bridges the various story threads.
Cultured Vultures
Huw Saunders
A rollicking romp where the plot comes forward by leaps and bounds is undercut slightly by the way the show undermines its own apparent messages.
The Spool
Clint Worthington
As Watchmen speeds towards its season finale, I can't wait to see what these new revelations mean for our characters and the twisted world in which they live.
Entertainment Weekly
Christian Holub
At first, I thought that piling these two twists right on top of each other diminished the second one's impact slightly, but after some reflection, I now think that they're actually reinforcing each other in a powerful way.

Finding out what happened in Angela's own dark past and witnessing how it affects her in the present ... that is the kind of story I crave. And episode seven delivered.
Vox
Emily VanDerWerff
"An Almost Religious Awe" is the most Angela-centric episode of Watchmen yet... But it's also, cunningly, about Doctor Manhattan, who keeps turning up throughout Angela's childhood in Vietnam.
Tor.com
Leah Schnelbach
It all adds up to an astonishingly thoughtful hour of television. An hour that is trying to make its audience think and feel in a way that most TV is too placid to attempt.
Tom & Lorenzo
Tom Fitzgerald and Lorenzo Marquez
Reader, we screamed. It wasn't just the shock of Angela's actions in that last thirty seconds and how it recasts everything we know about her, it was also how well the reveal of Cal's true identity slots into what the show is trying to say and do.
The Undefeated
Soraya Nadia McDonald
An Almost Religious Awe, directed by David Semel, kicks an already-intense the series into hyperdrive, leaving viewers feeling as if they've just been smacked with a two-by-four.
The Ringer
Daniel Chin
After turning back the clock over 50 years in Episode 6 to show the thrilling and devastating origin story of Hooded Justice, we return to the present in "An Almost Religious Awe," where the battle lines in Tulsa have been drawn.
The Daily Dot
Gavia Baker-Whitelaw
Compared to the sensitive and thematically satisfying reintroduction of Hooded Justice last week, it's hard to look at the Cal/Dr. Manhattan situation and have any reaction other than: "Uh... what?"
Tell-Tale TV
Kevin Lever
"An Almost Religious Awe," takes a more straightforward approach, but ends up taking a hammer to what we've seen up to this point.
Rolling Stone
Alan Sepinwall
"This Extraordinary Being" upended our perceptions about the origins of superheroism by revealing Hooded Justice's true identity. "An Almost Religious Awe," meanwhile, concludes by upending our perceptions about this Watchmen as a whole.
New York Times
Scott Tobias
What unites Damon Lindelof's embellishments with the original text is their strong feel for unintended consequences, when an action that might once have seemed just looks either deeply flawed or flat-out monstrous in hindsight.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Angelica Jade Bastién
Not all of the episode's bold gambits work, but the creative forces behind Watchmen are so willing to take risks that I couldn't help but be dazzled on some level.
indieWire
Ben Travers
"An Almost Religious Awe" drops juicy tidbit after juicy tidbit... At times, the balance works beautifully but this hour gets stuck when it stops providing new information and starts repeating itself.
Entertainment Weekly
Chancellor Agard
While I suspected that Yahya Abdul-Mateen II would eventually have a bigger role to play in the show, I did not see this coming at all. But I kind of love it because it complicates and forces us to reconsider so much of what we've seen before.
AV Club
Joelle Monique
The answers to certain questions helped us all feel we understood the direction of the show a little bit better. Well, "An Almost Religious Awe" arrives and proves we knew nothing.
