Netflix’s Missing You Rotten Tomatoes Score Revealed

The Rotten Tomatoes score has been revealed for Missing You. Missing You is a TV series based on the 2014 Harlan Coben thriller novel of the same name. Its plot focuses on the story of detective Kat Donovan, whose world falls apart when she finds her estranged fiancé on a dating app. In a turn of events, this happening ends up leading Kat to work on her father’s unsolved murder case. The Missing You miniseries adaptation features a leading cast including Rosalind Eleazar, Richard Armitage, James Nesbitt, and Ashley Walters.

Now, the Rotten Tomatoes score has been revealed for Missing You. At the time of writing, the series is receiving mixed reviews, bringing in a 50% score with 7 reviews so far. There is not yet an audience score for the series, as Missing You has just been released. This audience score will likely develop in the next few days, as will the critics’ score shift.

What This Means For Missing You

Missing You Is Not As Well-Rated As Fool Me Once

Missing You is far from the highest-rated Coben adaptation show. This time last year, Fool Me Once was released to largely positive reviews, scoring a 71% Tomatometer among 17 critics. The series had much worse reviews among audiences, however, who gave the show just a 45% Tomatometer. As more people get the chance to see Missing You, it will be interesting to see if there is another divide between critics and audiences. With Missing You having a lower critics’ score, a divide could be good or bad for the show.

So far, those who like Missing You are praising it for being a compelling dramatic tale. Its detractors have not been so kind to the project, with Independent‘s Nick Hilton writing that the show “is too stupid and too manipulative to be encouraged.” Jay Snow of Paste Magazine added that “Missing You ultimately fails to deliver in a satisfactory manner.” Pramit Chatterjee of Digital Mafia Talkies was far more biting in their criticism, writing “you can only pray to the gods of entertainment that you don’t have a Harlan Coben adaptation on the horizon.“

Our Take On Missing You’s Rotten Tomatoes Score

Missing You Could Still Do Well On Streaming

If Missing You is anything like Fool Me Once, lackluster reception from either critics, audiences, or both will be far from a harbinger of demise for the series. Fool Me Once was a global sensation upon its New Year’s Day release last year, drawing in millions of viewers. Missing You is using the same holiday release strategy as its predecessor, giving it a good chance to repeat the previous Coben’s film success. As more viewers get the opportunity to watch the show over the next week, it will be interesting to see whether Missing You succeeds or flounders.
