Season 1 Review: As odd and fast-paced as you'd expect from a show created by "Arrested Development" creator Mitch Hurwitz. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Arnett isn't stretching himself here, but he's still funny as a man who can't comprehend why he can't buy the love of his life. Russell brings a fervor to the role of a woman who has yet to come across a tree she wouldn't want to hug. Read full review

Chicago Sun-TimesPaige Wiser
Season 1 Review: Running Wilde never reaches the same level of genius [as "Arrested Development"], but maybe that's because we have Puddle narrating the action, not Ron Howard. You can't re-create the magic--but I like that they're trying. Read full review

Philadelphia InquirerJonathan Storm
Season 1 Review: The show would be better if it got a little closer to the ground, but Wilde, with unusually beautiful production values (for a sitcom), completes a one-hour, laugh track-free, absurdist block that gives Fox its best chance at comedy success since The Bernie Mac Show and Malcolm in the Middle.

Entertainment WeeklyKen Tucker
Season 1 Review: Tucked into a time period following the big, broad comedy of Raising Hope, Running Wilde seems like a boutique laugh factory. I wonder how long it can stay in business. Read full review
