Although [Shields is] fine at conveying perky pluck, her line readings seem rushed and forced. Suddenly Susan is already smarter and quicker than Caroline in the City; maybe a few months down the line, it'll take on the weight of a solid-gold sitcom. Right now, though, it's more like a big chunk of scrap metal.

The fact that Bill Cosby is beating Brooke Shields in their head-to-head competition must be satisfying to the Cos, 'cause if ever a sitcom had Jell-O for brains, it's Suddenly Susan. And the show's only gotten mushier this season.
