    This melancholy premise results in a rather uncomfortable mix for a coming-of-age show. There's the comedic, with "humor" arising from the family's slobbery dog and the baby's poopy diapers. Then there's the maudlin, with scenes that are summed up by 11-year-old Claudia (Lacey Chabert) early on. [12 Sept 1994, p.27]

    The orphans-hang-together story is hokey in places, but it also addresses important issues that rarely come up in usual network fare, like handling money and responsibility for and to each other. [12 Sept 1994]

    The best, warmest, most immediately satisfying contemporary family drama since ABC's Life Goes On. May this one have as long a run. It will certainly have as steep an uphill battle. [12 Sept 1994, p.8D]
