Season 1 Review: Everything is seriously tongue-in-cheek. The scares satisfy, and the laughs are earned. [8 Jul 2001]

Hal Boedeker

Season 1 Review: Cheerfully oddball ... The Chronicle is like a big summer movie, but without the bombast. Read full review

Linda Stasi

Aug 6, 2014

Season 1 Review: Sci Fi has done once more what the networks seem very often to have forgotten how to do: make watching TV really, really fun again. ... It's fun in the way that "Ghostbusters" was fun - funny, silly, scary. [13 Jul 2001]

Mark A. Perigard

Season 1 Review: "The Chronicle" seems to want to have as much fun with its stories as its viewers. [12 Jul 2001]

Season 1 Review: A basic-cable homage to "Men in Black." Read full review

Rob Owen

Aug 6, 2014

Season 1 Review: The hybrid style of comedy and drama in "The Chronicle" doesn't quite jell. There's potential, but it hasn't been realized. Read full review

Season 1 Review: "The Chronicle" is more a goof than a scare. [12 Jul 2001]
