    Watching Pinchot flail through lousy punch lines and Cox endure ogling, you may find The Trouble With Larry not just not-funny, but actively depressing

    Bronson Pinchot left Perfect Strangers behind, but he's still addicted to his Balki shtick. As a husband who returns after being presumed dead for a decade, only to find his wife remarried, he shamelessly steals every scene, pillaging the rest of the cast and overloading the action until it sinks in a sea of sophomoric Pinchosity. [01 Sep 1993]

    Pinchot, given little to work with, is like Mork on Prozac, a quart-low Jerry Lewis. The trouble with Larry is it thinks it's a riot. Think again. [25 Aug 1993, p.3D]

    How did this sitcom (using the word in its most expansive sense) ever make it on the CBS fall schedule?
