All Critics (40) | Top Critics (19) | Fresh (39) | Rotten (1)
On top of being genuinely funny, Speechless nails what it's like being in a family with a special needs child.

The premise may sound more sad than funny, but fortunately, it's not.

It's compelling family television at its very best.
Fowler's performance is one of the most pleasant surprises of the fall television season. In fact, all of the performances are winning, with Driver deserving most of the praise.

ABC does family comedies right, and this latest slightly offbeat addition fits in well with the other lovingly quirky clans that populate the network.

Speechless shifts immediately into gear with zippy authority and a knowing sense of humor.
