Utterly charming.

Although the premiere lacks the sort of boffo laughs channel-hoppers demand, it has a pleasant texture and characters who are full of potential-even the kids.

At a time when most sitcoms strive for a bloodless hit formula that can be endlessly repeated into syndication, The Torkelsons seems to be going on its own nerve.

Beyond its derivativeness, the show bounces disconcertingly between cheap humiliation humor and cheaper sentimentality.
June 05, 2019
Torkelsons is sort of a silly sounding name, but The Torkelsons is a surprisingly good new sitcom.

What sets The Torkelsons apart, besides a name you can't get out of your head, are some things we haven't seen on prime time in a while - a female head of household and the state of Oklahoma.

The Torkelsons is a disappointment not worth much mourning.
June 05, 2019
As usual, [Michael] Jacobs' script is as short on laughs as the Torkelsons are on cash.
June 04, 2019
The Torkelsons hasn't got much going for it beyond an occasional glint of wit peeking through the country high jinks.

A TV kid whose jokes are rooted in real feelings and family tribulation. What a concept!
