    As a sitcom, Book plays like a tepid Malcolm in the Middle that could use more danger. But Erinn Hayes and Swoosie Kurtz provide emotional and comic balance as the stressed mom and a hippy-dippy granny. [19 Mar-1 Apr 2018, p.13]

    The Dangerous Book for Boys is fine enough for the target audience. The problem is the target audience has already seen this so many times. ... Instead of taking the opportunity for true tenderness, real emotions and actual humor, Amazon has created a show in The Dangerous Book for Boys that is just another show, period. Opportunity missed.
