38This "Free Ride," I suspect, will be over very soon.
-
25Tonight's premiere episode doesn't have a single laugh in it.
-
25This is a series that shimmers with potential -- until Dove shows up. Someone at the network must have thought "Free Ride" was too irreverently weird and creatively nuanced, so they made Dove as annoyingly cartoonish as possible.
-
30Harmless and intermittently amusing, winning points by letting its actors indulge in improvisation, "Free Ride" is nevertheless about as unpromising as its lead character's aimless career goals.
-
30"Free Ride," though improvised, feels like every other Fox comedy that has come and gone: It has generic young stars stuck in a stale boy-pines-for-girl story line.
-
10This kind of comedy only stands a dim ghost of a chance if it has a lot of gratuitous nudity and substance abuse, along with the words ''National Lampoon'' in the title.
-
10Everything's so shrill and flat, it's hard to tell when the writing stops and the improvisation begins.
-
30"Free Ride" is crude, mean-spirited, and not nearly as fresh and innovative as the producers think it is.
