Clearly, this is not a cookie-cutter network offering; it's bold, at times difficult, and aiming for greatness. [20 March 2000]

Titus deftly carries off the delicate trick of creating comedy out of a background of tragedy and chaos, and for that it deserves a look. [20 March 2000, p.E-7]

The danger lies down the road, if Titus the creator runs out of real-life fodder for Titus the character. At that point, "Titus" could become a sitcommy caricature of itself. But, in the early going, Titus is on the money when he says, "Anything is funny if the setup is right. [20 March 2000]

Titus' shtick might be funny in a nightclub, but it's a droning, sour note of meanness on TV, so much so that Fox decided to move the pilot, where we get an intimate introduction to Titus and his family, to the show's second week. [20 March 2000, p.D05]
