Boston GlobeMatthew Gilbert

Tonally, "Private Practice" has not found its sweet spot. Dirty Sexy Money, on the other hand, has. The soap opera fully owns its soapiness.

New York PostLinda Stasi

It is so over the top--in such a fantastically bad-taste way--and so out-there crazy, that tonight's episode (at least) is every bit as good as those old soaps.

TimeJames Poniewozik

Its stripped-from-the-tabloids approach is nothing new, but it's well done, and a little familiarity won't hurt the show's chances.

TV GuideMatt Roush

Watching Nick (Peter Krause), family lawyer and honorary Darling, struggle to preserve his soul while fixing the family's messes is such fun you can almost forget the show's such a gaudy anachronism.

Entertainment WeeklyTim Stack

The campy, trampy series still boasts one of the best ensembles on TV, although this overstuffed episode feels like the show might now be more aptly titled Crazy Sexy Money.

NewsdayVerne Gay

Hilarious implausibility, overheated dialogue and enough soap to do several loads of laundry are part of its appeal.

New York Daily NewsDavid Hinckley

This moves the show closer to the "Dallas" model...It makes our lives simpler, though it does pressure the writers to come up with ever-more appalling behavior.

Chicago TribuneMaureen Ryan

After going through its share of growing pains, it now operates with clockwork efficiency. But the characters seem even more one-dimensional than they were last year.

Deda J gave it a10:
It's a perfect show for escapism and everyone I know loves it.

Donald K gave it a10:
I love Dirty Sexy Money. This is a great new series and I enjoy the soap opera story telling. Its about time we have something worth watching something a little different.

Michael H gave it a9:
I tend to judge season openers much like you would the first chapter of a book. In this case, you get a chapter that knocks you off your seat and says, "Get ready for one wild ride." For fans of the show, you will be surprised and will not be able to guess what's coming.
