Overall Chance is a mixed bag - but stick with it for the first couple of episodes and you may find it draws you in.
October 27, 2016
Though the series remains entertaining, attractively moody, and sensationally well-acted, there's a lack of urgency and personal import that can be felt throughout.
October 21, 2016
Slow, murky, and expertly written, Chance is the kind of dark drama that rewards viewers who don't need an explosion or twist every seven minutes.
May 21, 2019
It's a glum, glacially-paced noir, and I probably would've stopped watching midway through the first episode had it not been for the presence of Hugh Laurie.
October 19, 2016
So far it's involving to a degree but never enthralling to the max... Whatever this is -- it's watchable.

[Huhg] Laurie is excellent, with an air of priestly weariness and a rougher, sadder version of his House growl. The shape of the story takes a while to emerge, but it could run and run.
October 18, 2016
Chance is buoyed by a strong supporting turn from Embry and an aptly nuanced take from the hot-like-fire Laurie, meaning audiences open to a little self-reflection should volunteer to be victims for this one.
October 20, 2016
Chance seems natural for binge watching, and that makes Hulu's strategy of releasing episodes week by week, just like on television, seem frustrating. Fans of psychological thrillers, though, are likely to find Chance worth the wait.
August 26, 2018
Even if it's only serendipitous, you won't want to miss out on Chance.
October 19, 2016
Chance, despite a great cast and a pilot directed by Lenny Abrahamson, relies too much on coincidence and gullibility to be effective.
October 17, 2016
One of the best new fall series and - double bonus points - it stars the great Hugh Laurie and Ethan Suplee, who ruthlessly hijacks his scenes.
May 21, 2019
Chance wants to be a kind of seedy California noir, complete with femme fatale but is personality-less instead.
