Season 1 Review: With a show described as an action-comedy-drama-romance, Glenn Gordon Caron may be setting himself up for failure. But the premiere of "Now and Again" is exactly as advertised: dramatic, funny, poignant, stunning and bold. [24 Sep 1999]

Season 1 Review: In Now and Again, Caron shrewdly baits more hooks than a fishing tournament. The lures are irresistible. [24 Sep 1999, p.E1]

Season 1 Review: When Goodman goes, he creates a void, but "Now & Again" might survive it thanks to sharp writing and an offbeat premise. [29 Aug 1999, p.F1]

Houston ChronicleAnn HodgesMar 24, 2022
Season 1 Review: It's an intriguing premise, and executive producer Glenn Gordon Caron (Moonlighting) promises liberal helpings of comedy mixed in the weekly doses of action/suspense. Success rides on where it goes from here. [12 Sep 1999]
