Critic Reviews

Gortimer is the rare series that's creative, occasionally funny and engaging in its own subdued manner.

Much of what’s likable about the series stems less from the particulars than from its general tone.

Smart, a little zany and never pandering, the show took me back to one of the best kid’s shows of the ’90s, Nickelodeon’s “The Adventures of Pete & Pete.”

There’s an unabashed quaintness about Normal Street, reminiscent of a time when kids TV was all about fun and homemade adventure.

It chokes a bit on its own whimsicality. But it stays on its feet.
