Critic Reviews

Season 1 Review:
The difference between a Dave Barry column and Dave's World is roughly that between a backyard cookout and drive-through fast-food...Both go down all right, but one's more savory. [20 Sept 1993, p.3D]

Season 1 Review:
It all falls a bit flat. But not because Anderson lacks support...So why aren't we laughing more? It could be that Barry's trademark, his knucklehead hyperbole prose, doesn't translate easily to the spoken word and screen. [20 Sept 1993, p.D1]

Season 1 Review:
Don't expect Dave's World to be as funny as the Dave Barry newspapercolumns that the series is supposedly based upon, but there are enough chuckles and a solid cast, led by former "Court" jester Harry Anderson, to keep this one going.[20 Sept 1993]

Season 1 Review:
As solid and gentle a sitcom as the new season has produced. It is a show that tries for laughs not in the insult-throwing manner employed by far too many sitcoms or in unrealistic scenarios but in subtle, observational ways...That said, the show also is a feast of yuppie fatuousness.[20 Sept 1993, p.8]

Season 1 Review:
It's OK, but not great. [20 Sep 1993]

Season 1 Review:
Anderson, a charming performer with a naturally dry wit, portrays the daydreaming, guitar-strumming Dave as well as he can be played. [20 Sept 1993, p.29]

Season 1 Review:
Yet another blandly generic family sitcom. This one is supposedly based on the life and syndicated columns of Dave Barry, but it has all the fresh, distinctive flavor of dust. Probably the worst thing about the show...is its star, Harry Anderson. [20 Sept 1993, p.B4]
