If you’re still unsure about watching *Damages*, consider its widespread critical success. The show consistently received high praise, boasting a 91% average approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes across all five seasons.

As a huge fan, I always thought seasons three and four were the absolute best, and it turns out critics agreed! They both got a perfect 100% rating, which is amazing. Season two was still fantastic, scoring a solid 90%. While the first and last seasons weren’t *quite* as universally loved, with scores of 83% and 85%, they were still really well-received – honestly, those are great numbers for any show!

Critics agree that the second season of *Damages* is a fantastic crime thriller – gripping, captivating, and incredibly addictive, largely thanks to Glenn Close’s outstanding performance.

According to *The Hollywood Reporter*, the show is remarkably intelligent and assumes a sophisticated audience, though that audience’s understanding isn’t always certain. The *Los Angeles Times* described it as wonderfully complex and intriguing.

The series boasts a stellar cast featuring, alongside James Byrne and Glenn Close, Tate Donovan, Ted Danson, William Hurt, Noah Bean, Timothy Olyphant, Marcia Gay Harden, Martin Short, John Goodman, and Anastasia Griffith.
