A League of Their Own (1993)

While the pilot packs a lot of story into a half-hour show, most of it is comprehensible to those who saw the movie, presumably the core audience for the TV series. Although many of the actors have a tough act to follow, particularly McMurray in the Tom Hanks role, the performances are good, with slick-talking Lovitz a standout. [12 Apr 1993]

Jon Lovitz, reprising his hilarious sharp-tongued scout from the movie, has the right idea. He won't be back next week. [12 Apr 1993, p.3D]

A show definitely suffering from an identity crisis. It's either a sitcom chock-full of dramatic elements, or a drama chock-full of sitcom elements. Either way it doesn't give you much reason to like it. [12 Apr 1993]

Wretched. [16 Apr 1993, p.E5]
