What we said then: "The multi-camera, laugh-track sitcom is completely unoriginal, the jokes are recycled. ... Still, the charismatic country star and [Lily] Tomlin's droll Lillie Mae, who successfully balances her sharp tongue with surprising softness, are entertaining."

What we say now: Reba can still bring 'em in -- the show has been a pretty strong performer in ABC's Friday lineup. So, OK, it hasn't exactly grown much, but it's giving fans what they want.
