    While Dratch infuses Mary with impressive energy, she interacts only with Alice, and the show comes off feeling lopsided as a result. [Mar 31 2017, p.57]

    Elfman is good (as usual), but Alice doesn’t give her a whole lot of room to expand either. ... There’s not much more here, other than those standard sitcom garnishments, and that spunky, chatty fuzzball.

    You don’t need a CGI delusion whose one skill is pratfalls. Elfman is game and charming, and Scarrwener could be the reincarnation of Janeane Garofalo. Imaginary Mary just needs to go away.

    Imaginary Mary would be more generic if it didn’t have Mary, but when she appears on screen with a grating voice that betrays Alice’s independent career woman id, it adds little comedy to the show.

The show has its funny moments, but there are not a lot of those. The cast has chemistry. The imaginary friend is cute and sometimes even funny. Jenna Elfman deserves better than this, though.… Full Review »
