On Metacritic, Shades of Blue has a Metascore of 58 / 100, based on 28 critics. On Rotten Tomatoes, the show is rated 56 % based on 35 reviews, with an average rating of 5.6 / 10. The site 's consensus reads `` Solid performances by Jennifer Lopez and Ray Liotta fail to lift Shades of Blue above the ranks of the pedestrian network procedural ''. Writing for USA Today, Robert Bianco gave the series two stars out of four, calling it `` a thoroughly ordinary reworking of pretty much every crooked cop show and movie you 've ever seen ''. Slate reviewer Willa Paskin criticized the show as `` moderately terrible '', though praised Lopez 's performance as `` hugely appealing '' and called her `` the show 's one reliable pleasure ''. In a more positive review, Yahoo ! 's Ken Tucker called Lopez 's work `` solid '' and felt the series was `` perhaps the best dramatic work she 's done since her first - rate film, Out of Sight ''. Molly Eichel from The A.V. Club gave the series a C+ rating, saying that `` While the plot starts out cut and dry, it becomes more twisty and turny in a way that will eventually bring the audience back to the opening scene of a makeup-less, de-glammed Santos confessing her sins into a camera ''. Matt Zoller Seitz of Vulture wrote that `` Shades of Blue is n't a deep show, but it 's a sensationally effective one. It knows what it is ( a compacted, melodramatic, commercial TV - friendly gloss on one of those ' 70s and ' 80s Sidney Lumet police - corruption thrillers ) and it rarely steps wrong.
