Steve Johnson Chicago Tribune 08/21/2019
The show is hackneyed about Winters learning to live on her own, saying it with such obvious moments as having Ford deliver a resounding I-am-woman speech and then lead a dance to Walk Like an Egyptian. Go to Full Review

Maggie Winters will have you rooting for Faith Ford but not for Maggie Winters, the character she plays, and overplays, in this forced sitcom: Go to Full Review
Howard Rosenberg Los Angeles Times 08/21/2019
A decade as ditzy Corky on Murphy Brown showcased [Faith] Ford's flair for comedy. She's at her best in Maggie Winters when mellowing and not trying to top her material. Go to Full Review
Scott D. Pierce Deseret News (Salt Lake City) 08/21/2019
[Faith] Ford is as appealing as ever, but there's not much of a show built around her. Go to Full Review
David Zurawik Baltimore Sun 08/21/2019
[Faith] Ford is a nice supporting player, but this leading role looks to be too much for her. Ford's two or three Corky moves start wearing thin by the first commercial break. Go to Full Review
Alan Pergament Buffalo News 08/21/2019
A better idea for [Faith] Ford after Murphy Brown would have been to take a year off or attend her high school reunion. Go to Full Review
