Season 1 Review:
The fact that Meaney has a slightly Gleasonesque persona gives his exchanges with Meadows, so long ago Alice Kramden, a nostalgic oomph. Cheering memories of "The Honeymooners" hover over the proceedings -- the icing on a fast-frozen devil's-food cake. [10 Sept 1990, p.B1]

Season 1 Review:
Like it or not, this show is fairly amusing and not a blow against civility. [10 Sept 1990, p.C1]

Season 1 Review:
For the most part, Uncle Buck relies on Meaney inhaling mustard while exhaling cigar smoke and turning down the advances of a beautiful woman. As slob humor, Uncle Buck is as tame as it is lame. [10 Sept 1990, p.35]

Season 1 Review:
It is as distasteful and morally offensive as anything we've seen in the new season's roster of so-called comedy and entertainment. [10 Sept 1990]

Season 1 Review:
Uncle Buck is sometimes funny like a poke in the eye. It's crude and vulgar. The jokes are obvious, the situations cliched, the characters obnoxious. Would you believe a lecherous insurance agent named Doreen Douche? [10 Sept 1990, p.9]

Season 1 Review:
Uncle Buck is a tasteless, witless disaster. [10 Sept 1990, p.C1]
