''[[The Hollywood Reporter]]'' referred to ''The Red Tent'' as "an engaging and very well cast story of the triumph and resilience of the female spirit", but criticised the miniseries for casting white actors "exclusively in prominent and positive roles" while darker skinned actors were cast in more nefarious roles.<ref>{{cite website |url=http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/review/red-tent-tv-review-754009 |website=The Hollywood Reporter |title='The Red Tent': TV Review }}</ref> Similarly, in her review for ''[[LA Times]]'', Mary McManara noted that parts of the miniseries "wander close to parody — Will Tudor's Joseph is a blue-eyed Botticelli in contrast to the Arabic swarthiness of his murderous brothers".<ref>{{cite website |url=http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/tv/la-et-st-the-red-tent-review-20141206-column.html |website=LA Times |title=Review Lifetime's 'The Red Tent' kept standing by leading ladies }}</ref>
Writing for ''[[The New York Times]]'', Neil Genzlinger noted that "fans of the novel will no doubt watch and revel in this relatively big-budget treatment. Others might find its pseudo-biblical, pseudo-feminist mix hard to take."<ref>{{cite website |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/06/arts/television/the-red-tent-imagines-the-life-of-dinah.html?_r=0 |title=A Biblical Girls' Club |website=The New York Times}}</ref>
