Submitted by BrianTT on October 5, 2011 - 6:49pmCHICAGO – I fall a bit more in love with “Raising Hope” every week.

TV Review: Rich Ensemble Drives Heartfelt Humor of ‘Raising Hope’
Submitted by BrianTT on September 21, 2010 - 10:16amCHICAGO – Like the last show from its creator (“My Name is Earl”), the new FOX sitcom “Raising Hope” too-often feels like its underlining and pushing its jokes through the screen in desperation for a laugh but the cast of this new comedy entry is the best of the season and their talent alone should overcome the occasional bit of flop sweat.
