The best sitcom this year, and one of the best in a lot of years.

Juggling such a large ensemble won't be easy, and the producers have to guard against crowding too many stories together at the cost of depth and development.... If they can get the balance right, though, Class should be an ideal fit for CBS' successful Monday lineup.

In addition to some screwball comedy, it also has a lot of heart.

Cute but not cloying, funny but not overflowing with gratuitous sex jokes, "The Class" earns a B+, which easily puts it in contention for valedictorian among fall 2006's freshman comedies.

Not since Friends has a comedy been blessed with so many appealing performers matched to sharply drawn characters.

It arrives fresh, charming and consistently funny.

"The Class" is a good example of how any premise can be turned into good fiction, even if it's cluttered with tired cliches.

The Class doesn't necessarily generate more laughs than other sitcoms, but it has more charm--like a kinder, gentler How I Met Your Mother--and that's incentive enough to stick with it. [16 Oct 2006, p.39]

In the mostly undistinguished roll call of new comedies, it goes to the head of the class.

Poignantly funny.
