Top critics, in their words
Rotten
Pleasant but overfamiliar.
Dana Stevens, Slate
Rotten
Sitcom-amusing, in that middle-of-the-road way.
Lisa Kennedy, Denver Post
Rotten
It's the kind of cutesy idea that doesn't ring remotely true.
Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor

This is a sharp, funny, touching and utterly winning slice of New York.
