Cleveland Plain DealerMark DawidziakNov 27, 2019
Season 1 Review: A terrific vehicle for commenting on the state of the world? It should be. God, the Devil and Bob, however, is rarely as funny or as insightful as it should be. [9 March 2000, p.4E]

Season 1 Review: God, the Devil and Bob is irreverent, but it's not offensive. It's just not as good or as funny as it should be. [9 March 2000]

Season 1 Review: The mirth is lower key, often generating smiles rather than laughs. [9 March 2000, p.1G]

Season 1 Review: Despite a distinguished voice cast, the new animated comedy is hurt by uneven and unsure writing. [9 March 2000]

Season 1 Review: The problem with NBC's new animated comedy series, "God, the Devil and Bob," isn't that it's too irreverent, or not irreverent enough. Despite its rich premise and wonderful cast, the problem with TV's newest prime-time cartoon is that it just isn't funny enough. [7 March 2000]

Season 1 Review: May be remembered as the dullest example of irreverence since Sister Maurice jabbed me in the nose during my altar-boy days and I bled like an "ER" goner all over my white surplice. [9 March 2000]

Boston GlobeMatthew GilbertNov 27, 2019
Season 1 Review: Based on a thin concept that has God and the Devil competing for the soul of a Detroit auto worker over and over again, it doesn't have enough fresh wit to rise above its good-vs.-evil redundancies. [9 March 2000]
