    In the two-episode premiere, a host of flat, screechy, and stereotypical characters take part in stories about an angry new mom and small-minded Christians. Neither establish an entertaining vibe nor a reason to check back in.

The trailers for Guest Book are incredibly charming with each week being a different story. That's so clever! Although this may not be for everyone, Mr. Garcia's tone and tastes have pulled through yet again with a winning show! I later read that he wrote all of them. Not an easy thing to do. I'm excited to watch the rest of the season and learn more about the townspeople and how they get into trouble with the guests. Love seeing Eddie back on tv too!… Full Review »

    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. I love that anthology shows are making a comeback. This one is hilarious.

There were a lot of genuine laughs in this show and it's filled with some delightfully wacky characters. I'll be checking back in to the Froggy Cottage cabin next week and hopefully see some more weird stuff go down.… Full Review »

The content, the addictive characters, Honeyhoney's music snippets, the hysterical fat hooker at the bar --all these components combined to produce stories that were snappy, fast-paced, and took no prisoners. I awaited each episode very eagerly. The final episode with Orson Bean was a total kick. While based on a simple concept, the content and stories were excellent. This series made me laugh out loud repeatedly and I am watching closely for the second season. Congratulations to the writers.… Full Review »
