Chicago Sun-Times Doug Elfman
It should get tighter as the season progresses. But I already laughed several times at the silliness of this week's first episode, which is more than I can say for most sitcoms. |

Miami Herald Glenn Garvin
Lowlife though it may be, Twins is just plain funny. |

Philadelphia Inquirer Jonathan Storm
More inviting than the usual run of sitcom idiocy. |

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Rob Owen
Despite the cliched sitcom trappings... it's an amusing, if slight, diversion. |

USA Today Robert Bianco
Relentlessly mediocre. |

Los Angeles Times Robert Lloyd
[Gilbert] seems like a real person, even in such a cartoon as this is. |

Orlando Sentinel Hal Boedeker
Twins adopts the most shrill aspects of Will & Grace without capturing that show's charm. |

New York Daily News David Hinckley
If you think "Will & Grace" got lazy and tired after a few years, with its broad punch lines and broader plots - and you should - "Twins" accelerates the process by starting out that way. |

Hollywood Reporter Ray Richmond
"Twins" is a surprisingly straightforward piece of WB-targeted lowbrow absurdity that's far afield from the sophisticated territory plowed by Kohan and Mutchnick in "Will & Grace." |

Kansas City Star Aaron Barnhart
The only thing this sitcom has going for it is Sara Gilbert. |

The New York Times Alessandra Stanley
"Twins" is supposed to be a light-hearted comedy, but there is something ineffably sad about Ms. Griffith's struggle to cheat time, a real-life version of the HBO satire "The Comeback." |

Variety Brian Lowry
Gilbert at least brings some human dimension to the otherwise relentless silliness. |

People Weekly Tom Gliatto
The show is flat. [7 Nov 2005, p.41] |

PopMatters Elaine Hanson Cardenas
The plots are thin, generally revolving around the idea that dumb is smart and smart is dumb. |

Chicago Tribune Sid Smith
The whole thing is flush with bright talent and woefully deficient in bankable gags. |

Boston Globe Matthew Gilbert
A painfully simplistic sitcom that has exactly one thing going for it: Sara Gilbert. |

San Francisco Chronicle Tim Goodman
The writing here is trite, the premise flimsy and the acting bad. |

Seattle Post-Intelligencer Melanie McFarland
Awful doesn't begin to accurately describe this sitcom. |
