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

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

Tucker, despite having Katey Sagal from "Married . . . With Children" as Aunt Claire, plays as a weak copy of Malcolm. [2 Oct 2000, p.1E]

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]

A clunky, crass and utterly charmless "Malcolm in the Middle" knockoff.

The best these oafish writers can do is reintroduce the offensive bit again and again. The gag won't be detailed here, but picture a 14-year-old telling Viagra jokes, and you've got the idea.

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]
