DUELING CRITICS

	"If innocuous entertainment, amiable enough while it lasts but forgettable beyond, has a place in life as you know it, then Life As We Know It will have a place in your heart."
- Rick Groen

	"To ask us to laugh at amateur slapstick while throwing melodrama involving a serious situation in our face is insulting and distasteful, and it doesn’t work...It's awkward and weird."
- Bill Clark
