Martin Tupper is a book editor in Manhattan, recently divorced from Judith, a psychologist. Martin's life is filled with fantasies and sexual thoughts, many times coming in the form of black-and-white shots from old TV shows and movies. Charlton Heston, Bette Davis and Joan Crawford were a few who showed their faces in Martin's fantasies. Saucy secretary Toby constantly puts him down while his pal, Eddie, gives him poor advice on women. Trying to raise a child while dealing with the '90s dating scene make this a racy comedy.

Howard Rosenberg Los Angeles Times 06/01/2018
Unfortunately the show's opener (half of a two-parter that concludes next Wednesday) is labored, only intermittently funny and definitely not up to old standards. Go to Full Review John J. O'Connor New York Times 05/31/2018
In other words, "Dream On," complete with its clips from old movies, remains blithely nutty, ribald and habit-forming. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
