	Media	Author	Review
		Alessandra Stanley The New York Times	"Martha Plimpton isn’t the only reason “Raising Hope”could be the best new sitcom of the season, but she is the main reason (...) It’s the 'Sabrina' story mixed with 'Arthur'"
		Brian Lowry Variety	"It's a bit of a kitchen-sink approach, frankly, but there are laughs to be found here, along with genuine familial affection"
		Robert Bianco USA Today	"When it's not trying too hard to be weird and rude — and sometimes when it is — it can be wildly funny and surprisingly sweet (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of four)"
		Paige Wiser Chicago Sun-Times	"'Raising Hope' already has a little place in my heart"
		Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe	"There may be a smaller number of top-notch newbies this season, but Raising Hope, a celebration of parenthood and childhood, of small joys and big struggles, is certainly one of them"
		Mary McNamara Los Angeles Times	"Funny, sweet, occasionally provocative, and occasionally over-the-top"
		Randee Dawn The Hollywood Reporter	"Wryly, delightfully, honestly hilarious."
		Robert Bianco USA Today	"'Hope' has more going for it than a good heart and some good lines. It has a very good cast"
