    What comes out of Herman's head is the most imaginative, innovative comedy on TV since "Dream On". [5 Sep 1991]

    Ragsdale has vigor, and the office scenes, featuring Jason Bernard, Yeardley Smith, Jane Sibbett and Hank Azaria, work moderately well without the intrusion of the barbershop quartet in his cerebellum. That gimmick, however, makes the show unbearably contrived.

YES, I remember the character names after over 20 years. It was THAT funny. The critics who planned this show were idiots. I don't care who they were or what their reputations were - if they didn't like this, their bosses should have fired them on the spot.… Full Review »
