Caryn James New York Times In its weekly version of Maya vs. the airheads, ''Just Shoot Me'' is heading toward the social range of a show like ''Frasier,'' with its intellectually aloof sons and their blue-collar dad. Sep 13, 2018 Full Review Steve Johnson Chicago Tribune David Spade is a love or hate actor, but his role here, as a snotty personal assistant to the magazine publisher, is cleverly designed to work no matter how you feel about him. Sep 12, 2018 Full Review Terry Kelleher People Magazine With its recent move to NBC's so-called must-see Thursday, this second-year sitcom set at a Cosmo-type magazine is a ratings hit that's still hit-and-miss in quality. Rated: B- Sep 13, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
