Mary McNamara's review of Mental for Los Angeles Times

Posted on Sep 11, 2010

If Mental sounds a lot like "House" or "The Mentalist" or whatever other foreign-born-actor-playing-a-haunted-man drama you can think of, well, it is. Only nowhere near as good.... Read More

Randee Dawn's review of Mental for Hollywood Reporter

Posted on Sep 11, 2010

Ultimately, the problem is that while someone's used considerable brain power to put all these pieces together, they clearly just haven't thought things through.... Read More

Alessandra Stanley's review of Mental for The New York Times

Posted on Sep 11, 2010

The creators of Mental couldn’t take Gallagher any further up the mean-spirited scale, so instead they went too far in the other direction and ran smack into cliché.... Read More

Michael Judge's review of Mental for Wall Street Journal

Posted on Sep 11, 2010

An early scene from this Tuesday’s premier of the new Fox series Mental, a drama about a psychiatric ward in a fictional Los Angeles hospital, is representative of the larger problems that plague this... Read More

Brian Lowry's review of Mental for Variety

Posted on Sep 11, 2010

Cynthia Fuchs's review of Mental for PopMatters

Posted on Sep 11, 2010

Jack delivers to every brilliant-offbeat doctor expectation, which means that for all his hyper-performative charms, Jack is also tedious, right down to the zipper in his forehead that marks commercia... Read More

Ellen Gray's review of Mental for Philadelphia Daily News

Posted on Sep 11, 2010

As TV dramas go, Mental is far from unwatchable. But unless you're spending the summer without cable, it's also probably unnecessary.... Read More

Alan Sepinwall's review of Mental for Newark Star-Ledger

Posted on Sep 11, 2010

Mental was produced on a relative shoestring by Fox Telecolombia, and there's a flatness not only to the sets (which look not unlike what you might see on a Univision show), but the dialogue and chara... Read More

Tom Shales's review of Mental for Washington Post

Posted on Sep 11, 2010

The parts of the show that don't seem recycled from previous medical dramas seem recycled from previous crime dramas, with just a few changes of vernacular and gadgetry.... Read More

Nancy Franklin's review of Mental for The New Yorker

Posted on Sep 11, 2010

Mental, a new drama on Fox, starting May 26th, is solidly mediocre; it’s not good, it’s not terrible, and there’s no reason for it to exist.... Read More

Verne Gay's review of Mental for Newsday

Posted on Sep 11, 2010

It is so numbingly derivative--effectively a dull mash-up of "House" and "Private Practice"--that you quickly forget it's also numbingly silly. But then, maybe that's the whole idea.... Read More

Ken Tucker's review of Mental for Entertainment Weekly

Posted on Sep 11, 2010

Mental's plots are trite and secondary to establishing Gallagher as a policy-defying Brit who says ''Bang on!'' to express enthusiasm.... Read More

Paige Wiser's review of Mental for Chicago Sun-Times

Posted on Sep 11, 2010

Gallagher's played by Chris Vance ("Prison Break"), who tries to overcome the cheesy script with a British accent and a little dignity. He fails.... Read More

David Hinckley's review of Mental for New York Daily News

Posted on Sep 11, 2010

Mental doesn't blow in with quite as fresh a breeze as "House." But it could get up into that division.... Read More

Linda Stasi's review of Mental for New York Post

Posted on Sep 11, 2010

You don't have to be nuts to love Mental, which is a kind of schizophrenic "House"--but you do have to be willing to suspend disbelief to the point of, well, insanity.... Read More
