    Goldblum is an oddball, so some may find his distinctive speech pattern and mannerisms distracting, but I appreciate his view of the world and unique take at the simple things in life.

    Goldblum seems very much in life the talkative eccentric hepcat he is in pictures — it’s impossible to tell when he’s on script or just telling you what he knows. I would subscribe just to watch more of this.

    A rather perfect example of a seemingly thin and silly premise that has exactly enough substance to stand on its own well after the sense of gimmickry has passed.

    The most immediately engaging and recognizably television-like of the new Disney shows, for some of us. ... The show’s means of expression, however, are quite finite. The formula is pretty ironclad. ... When you get past the Goldblumishness of it, there’s probably nothing you need to go out of your way for.

    Fans of Goldblum will enjoy the half-hour “World According to Jeff Goldblum” because viewers get a concentrated dose of his personality but beyond that interest may vary based on the topic.

    Jeff Goldblum is an interesting guy, but I don't know if he's interesting enough to make up for a boring subject. For example, the firstJeff Goldblum is an interesting guy, but I don't know if he's interesting enough to make up for a boring subject. For example, the first episode is about shoes. I really like Jeff Goldblum, but I was really starting to fade halfway through the episode. They really need to give him something WILD to explore-- like escort services or medical marijuana. You know, something most people aren't really exposed to.… Full Review »
