"The new Durweed fades into the background, while Montgomery and Asher ratchet up the political throw-aways. Surprisingly, though, the episodes also ramp up the comedy this go-around, producing some solid laugh-getters."

"Dallas - The Complete Eleventh Season lost me when Bobby attempts (feebly, of course) a Waiting for Godot joke in a Dallas bar. That tore it for me. The Dallas I knew and loved was no more."
