  1. Kitchen Confidential: Season 1
    Backstage antics are what's supposed to make "Kitchen Confidential" hilarious, but instead the characters just come off as juvenile.
  2. Just Legal: Season 1
    "Just Legal" is just tedious.
  3. Out of Practice: Season 1
    "Out of Practice" relies on trite misunderstandings and crude dialogue, both go-to gags for uninspired sitcom scribes.
  4. Twins: Season 1
    Despite the cliched sitcom trappings... it's an amusing, if slight, diversion.
  5. Threshold: Season 1
    There's too much emphasis on fictional scientific theories and not enough character development to make the few scares in "Threshold" worth a two-hour commitment.
  6. Head Cases: Season 1
    The show is neither funny enough to be a comedy nor dramatic enough to be an engaging drama.
  7. Bones: Season 1
    It's an (occasionally) frothy mix -- comedic moments tumble into serious scenes of forensic examination -- that's not altogether terrible, but neither does it beg to be watched on a regular basis.
  8. Supernatural: Season 1
    It is a well-made little show of horrors that's likely to scare and thrill its target audience.
  9. The War at Home: Season 1
    Would be revolutionary -- if the year was 1980.
  10. Reunion: Season 1
    The problem with "Reunion" is that beyond the show's gimmick, there's not much to draw viewers in. The characters lack depth and personality and the situations are -- yawn -- overly familiar.
  11. Prison Break: Season 1
    The premise, though bold, isn't as revolutionary as the "24" format, and the pilot is seriously lacking in thrills for an alleged thriller.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Doctor Who: Season 1
    Some of the pop-culture humor and creatures owe a nod to "Farscape," but the camp level is high and can be mighty funny.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Sense and Sensibility: Season 1
    The movie--as Jane Austen might have described it--is an amiable entertainment.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A Raisin in the Sun
    [The audience] will see some wonderful acting, especially from the luminous McDonald as Walter Lee's wife, Ruth. And they will see the movie debut of director Leon, who has helped turn these fine stage performances into convincing movie work, with the help of a screenplay by Paris Qualles that opens up the play into small additional scenes that will be a special pleasure for those who already know the play on stage.
