• Review: 18 To Life
  “Right now the strongest aspect of the show are the teen’s parents. Similar to Dharma and Greg, Tom and Jessie’s parents couldn’t be more different. Tom’s are a conservative jewish family, while Jessie’s couldn’t be more left-wing. The dialogue between the four differing adults is sharp and funny. It will be interesting to see how the parents deal with each other, now that they are related.” Read more.

From the TV Addict:

• DEGRASSI’s Stacey Farber Grows Up
  “As any fan of DEGRASSI will tell you, Ellie Nash didn’t have an easy time of it. During her time walking the hallowed halls of Canada’s most infamous high school, Ellie dealt with an alcoholic mother, her own proclivity for cutting and one failed relationship after another. Perhaps wisely, Ellie never actually walked down the aisle… although tonight, her portrayer, Stacey Farber, will take that gigantic step thanks to her new role in the CBC sitcom 18 TO LIFE.” Read more.

From Nick Patch of the Canadian Press:

• New CBC-TV show ’18 to Life’ takes light-hearted look at teenage newlyweds
  “In the new CBC-TV sitcom 18 to Life, Michael Seater plays Tom Bellow, a gangly, charmingly ordinary 18-year-old who finds himself engaged to his neighbour after proposing in a game of truth or dare. It’s not exactly a situation to which the 22-year-old actor can personally relate.” Read more.

From Andrew Ryan of the Globe and Mail:

• Love and marriage, and laughs
  “The new decade already shows signs of life for the great Canadian sitcom. Somewhere Al Waxman is smiling.” Read more.

From Raju Mudhar of the Toronto Star:

• Can’t count on laughs in 18 to Life
  “The series 18 to Life is like a TV version of Meet the Parents, without Robert De Niro or Ben Stiller. Well, not exactly, and that’s not to say that CBC’s latest sitcom, premiering Monday at 8 p.m., isn’t without some charm, but on first viewing I found it a little hard to get past such a played-out concept.” Read more.
