Critic Reviews

Robert Rorke

Feb 1, 2017

Season 1 Review: The flavor of Superior Donuts might be old-fashioned--but a baker’s dozen of the sitcom might do the trick. Read full review

David Wiegand

Jan 27, 2017

Season 1 Review: The writing is nicely peppered with contemporary references, but, more to the point, effective character-based humor. In other words, this show is funny. Read full review

Ellen Gray

Jan 31, 2017

Season 1 Review: The Superior Donuts recipe is as old as doughnuts--or Cheers, to which it's far from ready to be compared, but it's also just topical enough to feel fresh. Read full review

Uncle Barky Ed Bark

Jan 31, 2017

Season 1 Review: Superior Donuts may well get stale in a hurry. But it’s on a network that somehow has kept the idiotic and likewise eatery-themed 2 Broke Girls on the air for an astonishing six seasons. And this one is better than that. Read full review

Neil Genzlinger

Feb 1, 2017

Season 1 Review: The staging is suffocatingly old-school: Stand up, deliver laugh line, walk to other side of shop for no reason other than to make room for the next character to stand and deliver. That’s not to say that the material isn’t moderately amusing. Read full review

Verne Gay

Jan 31, 2017

Season 1 Review: Reminiscent of “Chico and the Man” (the mid-’70s NBC sitcom about a cranky garage owner and his Chicano employee), but it also aspires to a contemporary relevance--but manages only a weary crustiness. Read full review

Jeff Korbelik

Jan 30, 2017

Season 1 Review: This is a formulaic, laugh-track comedy that wastes the talents of its actors--Katey Sagal is a sharp-tongued Chicago cop--who deliver inane, see-them-coming-from-a-mile-away one-liners. Read full review
