    Imagine a series that drains every bit of abnormality out of the wonderful spaciness of the feature film about life at a desert cafe. What makes this series unwatchable is that they also drained the humor out. Whoopi Goldberg and Jean Stapleton must be hard up for work these days. Stapleton adds a touch of class and Goldberg adds a good line or two, but this series isn't nearly good enough to be considered the road-company version of Bagdad Cafe. [28 Mar 1990, p.65]

    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]

    Bagdad Cafe fails because it's an eccentric idea given a mainstream treatment. [29 Mar 1990, p.3D]
