It’s a strange comparison to make, but the similarities are all there, from the cartoon pop beat of “9 to 5” (think “The Real Slim Shady”) to the obsessively adolescent humor of “Tango.” Jokes about fake tans are funny to a certain extent, beyond which they are absolutely excruciating...

Most of the Kazakhstan shots were actually filmed in Romania, and their verisimilitude (“cars” pulled by horses, rampant incest, extreme love of ping pong and sunbathing) is slim to none.

...Margaret was the image of suburban chic in her short-sleeved blouses, her slim waist cinched by a kitchen apron, her pretty face set in a near-permanent smile. As each episode?s plot played out, she would be baking cookies or measuring the living-room couch for new slip covers, assuring that the mother ship was shipshape. In a show that ventured infrequently into Jim?s office or the kids? school, where the home was the essential set, Margaret - the only Anderson without a nickname - was also the only one whose daily business didn?t take her away from...
