Pittsburgh Tribune-ReviewRob OwenJan 1, 2021
Season 1 Review: The breaking-the-fourth-wall shtick grows old fast in the pilot — only one in four of the comments proves charming/funny — so it’s no surprise there’s less of it in the second episode. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Maybe there's a funny idea here, but without edge, bite or (yup) claws, we'll never know. Good heart, no claws (or laughs). Read full review

TV Guide MagazineMatt RoushJan 15, 2021
Season 1 Review: Bialik is endearingly self-deprecating even when her slapstick klutziness pushes for laughs. Unfortunately, the shows gimmicks--frequent Fleabag-stye asides to the camera, the cast waving and taking bows at the end--just reinforce the stale artifice of it all. [18-31 Jan 2021, p.10]

Season 1 Review: Bialik's bubbliness isn't enough to overpower the flabby storytelling and trite third act moralizing, but Call Me Kat has the potential to deepen its ensemble's characterizations over time. As of now, though, I only want to be friends with Kat and Kat alone. Read full review

Season 1 Review: A Fox sitcom that feels so tired and dated it's tempting to double-check the year. Loosely adapted from the British comedy "Miranda," the show revels in pratfalls, but none bigger than the banana peel it keeps slipping on in its pursuit of laughs. Read full review
