Critic Reviews

Virginia Heffernan

The idle, boozy time between one romantic relationship and the next turns out to be a sweet spot for a sitcom. Read full review

Mike Duffy

The few good laughs in an otherwise so-so show are supplied by the slyly wigged-out Beth Lacke. Read full review

Linda Stasi

A bad morph-job of "Seinfeld" and "Friends" but without the simplicity of the first, the chemistry of the second or the brilliance, timing, and writing of either. Read full review

Maureen Ryan

Both shows ["Happy Hour" and "'Til Death"] bill themselves as comedies, but really, it's hard to find two less funny half hours on the network schedule. Read full review

Barry Garron

Given this straitjacket of a script, it's hard to know how good the cast could be with decent material. Read full review

Tim Goodman

Preposterously unfunny. Read full review

Tom Shales

Sheer, excruciating pain.... "Happy Hour" stands a good chance of being named Worst New Show, or at least feeblest new sitcom. Read full review
