An expensive, well-acted, nicely written, very long Lifetime/Hallmark movie. ... The narrative turns somehow feel at once twisty and predictable. Still, this is what some people come for, and they will perhaps feel it as abundance, rather than punishment. (That said, “From Scratch” might be best watched not as a binge, but with some recovery time between episodes.)
-
As a show of meals doled out over distinct episodes, From Scratch is handily engaging, even if the final product never quite adds up to the sum of its sumptuous parts. Perhaps it’s best to understand it as comfort food of a television show that only sometimes feels algorithmically created.
-
The show feels very careful about so much — too careful — but every so often there's a line of dialogue that hints at a sense of humor.
