The One: Season 1 / Reviews

Stuff

That doesn't mean it's not entertaining... but whether it's a dalliance that will leave you satisfied after near six-hours investment, I'm not so sure.

San Francisco Chronicle

Seems like eight episodes of missed opportunities, regardless of how well the formula takes hold.

The slick show misses many opportunities to explore its interesting premise.

Perhaps I'd feel differently if Ware had a little more fun as the ruthless boss with no scruples.
