Summary: Tucker is a family comedy as seen through the eyes of a hopeful 14-year-old boy dealing with divorce, growing up and falling in love for the first time. There's only one thing worse than your dad running off with a 26-year-old; moving in with your self-righteous aunt (Katey Sagal) who, despite her good intentions, thinks you're aTucker is a family comedy as seen through the eyes of a hopeful 14-year-old boy dealing with divorce, growing up and falling in love for the first time. There's only one thing worse than your dad running off with a 26-year-old; moving in with your self-righteous aunt (Katey Sagal) who, despite her good intentions, thinks you're a troublemaker. Meet Tucker (Eli Marienthal) an all-American kid who's keeping his chin up and his hormones down in a world that tries - but can't - push him around. As he and his mom try to make it on their own, Tucker remains upbeat despite his aunt and her annoying son Leon. In fact, he's already found a positive angle - McKenna, the girl next door. Hanging out with her makes everything great - that and his belief that good times are ahead. [NBC]… Expand

Tucker, whatever its modest comedic achievements, feels like a retread. Read full review

Steven Oxman

Aug 23, 2015

Marienthal is appealing, but Tucker, like the rest of the characters here, is not very sharply drawn. Read full review

Lame. [2 Oct 2000, p.E-7]

Marisa Guthrie

Marienthal is an energetic young actor, perhaps he'll find something more worthy of his talents after this dismal sitcom's inevitable cancellation. [2 Oct 2000, p.033]

Mike Duffy

Aug 23, 2015

A dopey comedy deserves a dopey assessment: Tucker sucks. Please make it go away. [2 Oct 2000, p.4E]

Ann Hodges

Tucker turns adolescence into hormone hell in this raunchy effort to capitalize on the charm of "Malcolm in the Middle". [2 Oct 2000, p.4]

Mark Dawidziak

Aug 23, 2015

The odious Tucker is a crude and blatant rip-off of Fox's brilliant January starter, "Malcolm in the Middle." The producers have gone to the absurd extreme of citing "My So-Called Life" as their inspiration, a pathetic ploy to avoid the obvious charge of "Malcolm" marauding. [2 Oct 2000, p.9D]
