Critics' reviews

"The Love Boat practically whispers 'relax' with every scene. It drifts in and out like a dream."

Noel Murray: AV Club
"There's a pinch of sex, a pinch of comedy, a pinch of romance, and a pinch of glamor, but darn little entertainment. "

New York Daily News
"An excessively manic laughtrack is supplied to mark off the points of supposedly irresistible mirth"

John J. O'Connor: The New York Times
"Obviously there's always going to be a certain amount of worthless tripe on television, but shows like Love Boat pull the median level of mediocrity down to unfathomable lows"

Tom Shales: The Washington Post
