## Critical response

A review of the premiere episode in the trade publication Variety said that the format had "broad audience appeal", especially to women who would be likely to buy the sponsors' watches and silverware. It said that production was "above par, although somewhat uneven". Reviewing the show's second season opener, "Starbound," a backstage saga penned by Don Mankiewicz, a distinct drop in quality was noted by The Hollywood Reporter, albeit primarily regarding choice of material.
   Viewers may like it, feeling they are getting a glimpse behind the scenes. Anyone really behind the scenes will wish they had it so good. [...] Reginald Le Borg directed the sticky story for Sovereign Productions, latter unit being really at fault for choosing the feeble story by Don Mankiewicz as an opener for what last year was a prestige production.
