If this one doesn't make you laugh, it may be time to report to the cryogenics lab. [26 May 1995]

Ingenious. ... It's an inspired, imaginative technique, making the slices of standup routines fit seamlessly into the therapy sessions, which is sort of what standup comedy is, anyway. [26 May 1995]

In its gently twisted fashion, "Katz" is definitely inspired. [27 May 1995]

A low-key, deadpan program that is very amusing and unusually engaging. [27 May 1995]

This inventive sitcom is hilarious.

Taking the sitcom-shrink genre beyond "Frasier" and "The Bob Newhart Show," Comedy Central's "Dr. Katz" enters the hip, surreal realm of "The Simpsons." [27 May 1995]

-
"Dr. Katz: Professional Therapist" is not always as clever or as comically savvy as it thinks itself. ... Yet at this point, there are more than a few scripted inventions to keep the viewer tuned in and returning for future sessions. [25 May 1995]
-
Defiantly deadpan and amusing. [26 May 1995]
