Philadelphia Inquirer by David Hiltbrand
Labyrinth is most remarkable as a curiosity: a thorny theo-historical miniseries with unusual European pacing and flavor airing on an incongruous venue the week after the TV season has ended.

Entertainment Weekly by Hillary Busis
Labyrinth is neither absorbing enough to be good-good nor ridiculous enough to be bad-good.
New York Daily News by David Hinckley
This lavishly produced and well-acted mystery-and-conspiracy drama lacks only one essential element: a payoff that makes the previous four hours feel a little more worth your time.
Zap2it (Inside the Box) by Sydney Bucksbaum
Labyrinth takes way too long to hit the ground running and introduce the actual story, so part 1 is confusing and fails to get viewers to care about both the past and present storylines.
The New York Times by Mike Hale
Labyrinth is too plodding and literal to rise to the level of camp, which could have saved it.
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette by Rob Owen
The show's concept is kind of interesting: Two women (one in 1209 France, another in the present day) are connected through time but after giving the miniseries about 40 minutes, I gave up in favor of a new episode of FX's "Fargo."
Boston Herald by Mark A. Perigard
CW’s Labyrinth is quite possibly the worst miniseries ever made for TV.
