Table 19

Table 19 / Reviews
Variety
The strangers-at-a-table concept turns out to be a thin excuse to cobble together what might have been the pilot episode for a glibly forgettable TV series.

The New York Times
Slapstick and sap vie for prominence in "Table 19," a comedy so lazy that it actually features someone falling off a log.

Los Angeles Times
