Conspiracy and backbiting are the only constant themes, and the overwhelming sense of claustrophobia and the unremitting nastiness of many of contestants make the show nearly unwatchable. [17 Jul 2001]- San Diego Union-Tribune

Tedious and banal, '24' lacks the engrossing panache TV's 'Mission Impossible' had years ago. Even though a well-rested-looking Sutherland is cool, steady and right for his role, he can't carry the show alone. [4 Nov 2001]- San Diego Union-Tribune

A lot of the humor in Scrubs is sick. Many jokes are made at the expense of old people on the brink of death, or sitting comatose in a wheelchair. [2 Oct 2001, p.E3]- San Diego Union-Tribune

"TekWar" is a blur of techno images, whirring noises and idiotic sci-fi speak. [18 Jan 1994]- San Diego Union-Tribune

Where the film began on a distinctly glum note, then built toward a spirit of renewal, the pilot episode of the sitcom starts out noisy and stays that way. In other words, a bewitching and intriguing movie has been trashed once again in the making of a har-de-har sitcom. [30 Mar 1990, p.E-17]- San Diego Union-Tribune

Cassidy is a decently capable dancer, but the routines performed by the troupe at the resort seem utterly tame, so mild that Stevenson's fuddy-duddy objections seem only puzzling. They are not nearly as puzzling, however, as CBS's decision to pencil Dirty Dancing onto the network dance card. [29 Oct 1998, p.D-15]- San Diego Union-Tribune

What "Enterprise" doesn't have are charismatic, fun characters. [26 Sep 2001]- San Diego Union-Tribune

A bloody bore. ... Even by the relaxed standards of horror movies, "Freddy" is a sloppy, simplistic, amateurish, abysmally acted, incompetently written production that would be more at home on a cable-access channel than in national syndication. [8 Oct 1988]- San Diego Union-Tribune

One of the true, noteworthy duds of the 1990 fall schedule...A lamebrained enterprise, a witless, obvious, often self-contradictory attempt at comedy. [10 Sept 1990, p.C-1]- San Diego Union-Tribune

Pointless gimmicks, dire stupidity, rotten acting and gratuitous violence abound, and, in the opening episode, so does implicit racism. The treatment of blacks in 21 Jump Street marks a new and unwelcome chapter in TV's history of on-screen racism; they are unquestionably portrayed as savage, violent figures threatening vulnerable whites.
