"F-Troop is a rather comforting show, really, in the best sense of 1960s TV; it's not trying to change the world, or impart a message, or even be all that original. F-Troop is just trying to make you laugh, which it succeeds at doing."

"Through grainy, scratchy archival newsreels -- and some questionable narration by Peter Jennings -- we get an entertaining, kaleidoscopic view of that chaotic decade."

"I wasn't expecting much. But I found myself enjoying some of the shows despite the artificiality of the presentation, while giving it credit for at least attempting to get across valuable messages, along with the corn."

"Paralyzingly funny...and deeply, deeply sad. The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin brilliantly employs repetition to not only deliver increasingly humorous gags, but also to perfectly illustrate its central theme."
