From Howard Rosenberg's column in the LA Times, 6/4/01:
Tuesday night's "Kristin," originally meant to air last season, is about as laughless as comedy gets.
That's the bad news. That and the possible record number of stereotypes it hammers into the first three of the 13 scheduled episodes.
You've got your Italian American lugs who talk like dis, y'know? You've got your female Hispanic (presumably Puerto Rican) who's a spitfire and so hot-blooded that she has sex with a Native American on an exposed beam at a high-rise construction site, 600 feet above the pavement. You've got that Native American then predicting that his wife will "tom-tom" his butt.
