Season 1 Ratings & Reviews
New York Times
John J. O'Connor
The soundtrack audience is reduced to drawn-out ''aaaws.'' Groans would be more in order.
Los Angeles Times
Howard Rosenberg
Another flip, manipulative, limp-lined sitcom.
Miami Herald
Steve Sonsky
Someone in Hollywood probably thinks this is a "courageous" concept. But if someone really wanted to do a courageous "dramedy," they'd incorporate kids who weren't (A) perfect looking (B) perfect thinking and (C) perfectly well adjusted.
Philadelphia Inquirer
David Bianculli
This, without doubt, is [Elliott Gould's] worst performance of the '80s to date, and he'll have to sink pretty low to outdo it.
Newsday
Marvin Kitman
I mean, it's one thing to do a sweet little show. But this is a whole sugar refinery. My teeth ache just mentioning it. This one jerks tears with pliers.
New York Daily News
Kay Gardella
Sure, the creators have stacked the deck with clichés, but Together We Stand is well written and easy to take. It also might deliver a message or two about sharing for young viewers.
United Press International
Mark Schwed
This show is not particularly funny, nor is it saying anything serious. So why is it here?
Philadelphia Inquirer
Lee Winfrey
Wretched excess, unfortunately, has long been a hallmark of TV. But in its blatant effort to outdo such previous adoption sitcoms as Diff'rent Strokes and Webster, Together We Stand reaches an appalling extreme.
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Ron Weiskind
This show offends not because of its theme but through its execution. Most of Together We Stand is loud, witless family sitcom at its most contrived.
Philadelphia Daily News
David Friedman
The most surprising thing about this maudlin mess is its pedigree. The executive producers of Together We Stand, Al Burton and Sherwood Schwartz, have been involved in some of the most successful sitcoms in TV history... You'd think they'd know better.
Boston Phoenix
Clif Garboden
If there is any justice left in television land, this series will fall soon.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Eric Mink
Pour this show into your gas tank, and your engine is shot. Pour it into your mouth, and you have a dental emergency. You're better off not risking it.
TIME Magazine
Richard Zoglin
The sentiment gets a bit thick, but there is something appealing about the war orphan's brashness and something real about the way the daughter, who was adopted years earlier, resents the attention given the newcomer.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Art Chapman
It tries too hard to be all things to all people and in the process ends up being not much to anyone.
Detroit Free Press
Mike Duffy
A so-so, semi-affable comedy in which Elliott Gould and Dee Wallace Stone, the every-mom from E.T., play Mom and Pop Randall to four cute, wisecracking kids.
Chicago Tribune
Clifford Terry
Any old ALF at all is eminently preferable to Elliott Gould, the actor who has built a career around your basic smirk.
Boston Globe
Jack Thomas
The show depends on Elliott Gould. Darn the luck, though, Elliott's not funny at all, not even once. And while we're on the subject, let's have a show of hands. Has Elliott Gould ever been funny?
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
John Carman
Gould is in a fine Cosbyesque mode -- the dry-witted family arbiter. Dee Wallace Stone, one of the nicer people in Hollywood, is lost in the family shuffle. The kids are, of course, precocious, and the humor is predictable.
Arizona Republic
Bud Wilkinson
A more down-to-earth comedy, but it is hardly earthy. In fact, it is too sweet to swallow.
Washington Post
Tom Shales
The actors, the writer (Michael Jacobs) and the director (Will Mackenzie) transcend the gimmickiness of the situation and get the maximum number of funny and tender moments out of it.
