I’m not clairvoyant enough to know whether viewers will be too freaked to watch The Others a second time. Whatever happens to the show, there’s no doubt that it’s breakthrough television. Read full review

Whether The Others turns out to be a great series remains to be seen. It is, at least, an intriguing one with possibilities. Read full review

The Others isn't an across-the-board success like The Sixth Sense. But it has its moments. And once you get past the sluggishness of the first episode, it's not half bad. [4 Feb 2000. p.1E]

SPOOKY stuff happens in The Others. Windows open by themselves, ghosts spring out of walls, eerie sounds wail. Yes, indeed, it's spooky. It's spooky how script writers think this sort of stuff is actually effective after so many years of seeing these cues so many times in so many "horror" movies. [4 Feb 2000]

The Others is a show with a promising premise and a very interesting collection of characters. But it is also a show with a tragic dependency on feel-goodism and sentimental resolutions. Horror and schmaltz? They just don't mix well. [5 Feb 2000]

If NBC hopes to ride the wave generated by the movie The Sixth Sense, it has a way to go to catch it. The Others is a too-predictable curiosity adrift in a sea of aiming-to-scare-you special effects. [4 Feb 2000]
