Neal Justin, Minneapolis-St.Paul Star Tribune, on the cast of NBC's Will & Grace's penchant for tripping the light fantastic.

"Finally, a show that parents can watch with their children's probation officer."

Alessandra Stanley, The New York Times, on UPN's Platinum.

"It's 'New Jack Dynasty.'"

Matthew Gilbert, The Boston Globe, on UPN's Platinum.
