Despite a promising premise, Made in Jersey failed to captivate many critics due to inconsistent storytelling and underdeveloped supporting characters. The New York Times criticized the show for its lack of depth and predictable plotlines, giving it a low rating of 2/5 stars. On the other hand, Entertainment Weekly praised Janet Montgomery's performance as Martina, describing her as "charismatic and engaging," but ultimately deemed the series as a whole as mediocre, with an overall rating of 5.5/10. Rotten Tomatoes' consensus highlighted the potential of the show's concept but noted its execution fell short, resulting in a disappointing 40% approval rating among critics. IMDb's 5.8/10 rating reflects the mixed reception from viewers, with many citing the show's untapped possibilities and untimely cancellation after only a few episodes. While some appreciated the fresh perspective on the legal genre, others felt the narrative lacked depth and failed to resonate with the audience.
