Alfred Molina's over-the-top theatrics only serve to highlight the dreadful humor and ill-conceived situations of Bram and Alice.

Bill Goodykoontz Arizona Republic Alfred Molina stars as a boozy writer who didn't now he had a daughter. He meets her, and before he learns who she is, he hits on her. If you laughed at that, enjoy the show. Feb 10, 2021 Full Review Tom Shales Washington Post Not content merely to be dreadful, this new sitcom about a shiftless writer who discovers he has a grown daughter goes out of its way to be offensive. Jan 3, 2020 Full Review Steve Johnson Chicago Tribune Alfred Molina as Bram plays it entirely too broad and "theatrical." Jan 3, 2020 Full Review Scott D. Pierce Deseret News (Salt Lake City) There have been a lot of comedies in which the lead character isn't exactly sympathetic, but Bram is pond scum. And there isn't much to laugh about in that. Jan 3, 2020 Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Producers are aiming for farce, but it's much too forced. Jan 3, 2020 Full Review Terry Kelleher People Magazine [Alfred] Molina is capably acerbic, but he can't save this misbegotten show. Jan 3, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
