    "Gung Ho" is the first prime-time series to have a predominantly Asian-American cast, but that doesn't save it from a narrow premise. [11 Dec 1986]

    Lacking the charm and bite--however inconsistent--that was evident in the original, the series is reduced to limp dialogue exchanges ... as well as garbled cliches ... and reflections on American mores from the stereotypical, transplanted executives. [5 Dec 1986]

    Has a few amusing moments, but is largely giftless ... You watch this half hour waiting for something to happen, but it never does. It needs less "gung" and more "ho."

    Comes across as corrosive and snide. [5 Dec 1986]
