    With Tools, there is no discernible style, or point of view, or voice, or humor that ever rises to the level of originality.
    • Metascore: 29
    • Verne Gay 20
    It is so ancient - in approach, tone, style and energy - that you can almost see the dust bunnies tumble across the set.
    • Metascore: 41
    • Verne Gay 20
    "What About Brian"... wants to be "thirtysomething" for twentysomethings, but it is clichesomething.
    • Metascore: 37
    • Verne Gay 20
    A slight, cartoonish, and terribly, terribly obvious dramedy.
    • Metascore: 45
    • Verne Gay 20
    "Donnellys" creaks and sighs, moans and slumps, and ambles along like a world-weary cliche, unable or unwilling to lift its head above the humdrum banality to which it has been consigned.
    • Metascore: 41
    • Verne Gay 20
    Because so many viewers will have seen this kind of reality show before, their minds may start to wander by the second commercial break.
    • Metascore: 53
    • Verne Gay 20
    It's slow. It's dull. It's listless.
    • Metascore: 27
    • Verne Gay 20
    "Emergency" is sodden, forbidding, a waste of 22 good minutes.
    • Metascore: 22
    • Verne Gay 16
    Why, then, this debacle, with bad jokes, listless lines and a parade of cliches? Beats me.
    • Metascore: 37
    • Verne Gay 16
    It's horrible, horrible, horrible, and you will hate yourself for laughing--although I'm afraid you will.
    • Metascore: 47
    • Verne Gay 16
    Based on the 22 irredeemably painful minutes TV Land offered for review, this show is clunky, sodden, cliched, drab, bland and terribly (terribly) weary.
    • Metascore: 36
    • Verne Gay 16
    A little too raw, especially in this hour.
    • Metascore: 40
    • Verne Gay 10
    Dreadful.
    • Metascore: 55

    It's as if we've all passed this way (many times) before and could write the dialogue, act the scenes, predict the outcome all in our sleep.
