Sioux City JournalBruce MillerJan 7, 2014
Season 1 Review: It has to discharge a few clichés and run the brotherhood thing through a few more paces. But the pilot shows there’s worth and, yes, maybe even a pat on the head. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesRobert LloydJan 10, 2014
Season 1 Review: Enlisted is an oddly quaint show, a stateside service comedy, if not quite a peacetime one. Read full review

USA TodayRobert BiancoJan 9, 2014
Season 1 Review: Enlisted may feel curiously dated and dangerously slight, but it's not offensive (a low bar many Fox comedies fail to reach) and it's not cynical. If nothing else, this is clearly a show with heart. Now if only it would show some sign of brains. Read full review

VarietyBrian LowryJan 8, 2014
Season 1 Review: It’s harmless enough given how broadly most of it’s played (think the Three Stooges in basic training) but nothing here is particularly distinctive. Read full review

San Francisco ChronicleDavid WiegandJan 7, 2014
Season 1 Review: After the pilot, the next three episodes become a little desperate, to the point of straining character credibility in several cases. The best thing Enlisted has going for it is the chemistry between the actors playing the three brothers. Read full review

New York PostMichael StarrJan 2, 2014
Season 1 Review: What saves Enlisted, just barely, is the effort put in by Stults, Lowell and Young, who all seem to be having a good time.

The New York TimesNeil GenzlingerJan 9, 2014
Season 1 Review: The show ends up feeling a lot like the short-lived “Go On,” the Matthew Perry sitcom about a therapy group from the fall 2012 season: lots of quirky characters thrown together in the vain hope that something will jell. Read full review
