Critics' reviews

"'Cybill' tries hard -- sometimes too hard -- to be outrageous... Still, Ms. Shepherd and Ms. Baranski have their delightful moments. And the series appears to be getting stronger."

John J. O'Connor: The New York Times
"Just how long 'Cybill' flames on CBS remains to be seen, but the premiere indicates that the future could be bright"

Howard Rosenberg: Los Angeles Times
"Racy jokes and blue language are everywhere, less shocking than tacky, since most of the jokes are stale one-liners with little punch or durability"

Sid Smith: Chicago Tribune
"'Cybill', CBS's new Cybill Shepherd sitcom, is smart, salty, sprightly and sexy, but no, she doesn't sell sea shells by the seashore"

Tom Shales: The Washington Post
"As for Shepherd, she seems totally out of synch with the rhythms and tone of a prime-time sitcom."
