That Animal Rescue Show takes a low-key, realistic look at people who give their lives to animals that need help. In a sea of negativity in media, such a positive show is a welcome, refreshing change of pace.- Decider

They seem to be eager to share too much and show their fractured relationships as they strive for that “perfection is attainable” life. It’s an awareness previous Housewives spent multiple seasons learning, but these ladies are already savvy. This all adds up to one of the most confident starts to a Bravo series we’ve perhaps ever seen, and one that is boldly ready to bring Bravo into a new era.- Decider

The parts just don’t make a cohesive whole. ... Aside from Maya Rudolph’s narration, Eater’s Guide To The World doesn’t offer anything you haven’t seen in dozens of shows on Food Network and elsewhere over the past 20 or so years.- Decider

Oh Cook! is low-key funny, but definitely generates a number of laughs. ... But it’s surprisingly informative, due to May’s grasp of food history minutiae, and the meals he makes are surprisingly well-done.- Decider

The Surgeon’s Cut tries to humanize the surgeons who have pioneered amazing procedures, and for the most part, it succeeds in its mission. Could it be a little less laudatory? Absolutely. But the laudatory nature doesn’t take away from the medical miracles they perform.- Decider

The women of this family certainly come off well here, and that’s refreshing; they’re not fighting or gossiping, and their stories are still interesting to watch. We should see more of that on reality shows.- Decider

Just because a show goes in the direction of a procedural-type show doesn’t mean that it can’t be elevated by a good cast and sharp writing. After the ace performances by Millman and Griffiths, we’re looking forward to seeing what direction Total Control goes in.- Decider

If you’re a fan of The Masked Singer, this show should be just as fun to watch. ... [Robinson] moves the show along without trying to center the spotlight on himself. Jeong is still at his most annoying, which we hate to say because we’re fans, but there’s also a reason why he’s the only carryover from the original show; he’s divisive like a Simon Cowell, but in a happy sort of way.- Decider

There’s enough going on during 30 Coins to keep a viewer interested. But at times, there’s too much going on, and it doesn’t give any time to explore the relatively small main cast and what their characters’ motivations are.- Decider

Even if the action doesn’t keep a game show fan on the edge of his or her seat, it should still be engaging enough for the viewer to want to play along. The Hustler, despite the efforts of Ferguson to will the show into something interesting, doesn’t ever get to that level.- Decider

Celebrity WoF needs the celebrities to be competitive and play the game the way it’s supposed to be played, and the first set of celebrities do just that. The puzzles are slightly easier than the ones you may see on the regular version, but that’s just to encourage bigger winnings because of the charity angle. But, if you weren’t looking too hard, you wouldn’t really be able to distinguish the celebrity version from the civilian version, which is a good thing.- Decider
