Danielle Solzman Solzy at the Movies Shari & Lamb Chop is a long-overdue documentary on the pioneering ventriloquist and TV personality and as nostalgic as it may be for her fans, it introduces Shari Lewis to a new generation. Rated: 4/5 Jan 12, 2025 Full Review Dennis Harvey 48 Hills Her mix of education, whimsy, and self-affirmation well predated the likes of Sesame Street... Jul 18, 2024 Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com …should be catnip to the masses, since Shari Lewis is one of the most instantly recognisable faces and acts in tv history…an engaging portrait of one of television’s great characters, one girl and her talking sock who somehow conquered the world… Rated: 4/5 Jul 2, 2024 Full Review Sharai Bohannon Dread Central While the documentary does not shy away from some of the turmoil Shari experienced, it maintains a positive energy that feels akin to the warmth that radiated from Shari Lewis herself whenever she was on screen in our youth. Rated: 3.5/5 May 29, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
