	'Huff' shrinks from heady story lines - The Boston Globe
		The event that starts the series on its way is also extreme, as it leaves blood and brains splattered all over Huff's office.
		Huff's 14-year-old son, Byrd (Anton Yelchin), is the stereotypical psychiatrist's child.
		The opening credits of ''Huff," for example, are an obvious effort to re-create the literary tone of ''Six Feet Under." Alas, they promise a penetrating drama that doesn't materialize, at least not yet.

	The Ledger Independent - Maysville, Kentucky
		The CBS TV reality series "Survivor" has hooked millions of viewers with the saga of men and women struggling to survive in primitive surroundings and win a $1 million.
		Huff, known for his mild, easy going personality, seems too nice for the cut-throat tactics of the show's competitors.
		One reason Huff's dream is burning bright is another "Survivor" contestant, Rodger Bingham, who appeared in the second season of the series.

	tvdvdreviews.com -- Huff: The Complete First Season DVD Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Huff's bitter, brittle mother Izzy (Blythe Danner) makes his life miserable from her perch in his guest house while her own home is being renovated.
		It doesn't help that Huff is only comfortable expressing his problems to his institutionalized sibling, or that he receives advice from a homeless Hungarian (Jack Laufer) who may or may not be a figment of his imagination.
		The series is often perversely funny (as when a flashback to Huff's youth has him masturbating to Sonny and Cher's "The Beat Goes On") but lacks focus.

	Gold Derby by Tom o'Neil - The Envelope
		Lucky for "Huff" Emmy judging panels have, historically, shown a consistent disregard for low Nielsens and even for the fact that a program is alive or dead.
		Azaria is Huff, a psychiatrist who can't cope with his own neurosis or fix his broken relationships with wife, mom and son.
		Huff holds a rose to his face as if trying to recall those happy days when love once bloomed, but suddenly he's jolted by the realization of how thorny his marriage is now.

	Huff (Showtime) - Reviews from Metacritic
		"Huff" is one of the best dramas on TV and easily the best one airing currently on pay cable.
		Huff is stubbornly inert, going all over the place tonally while going nowhere emotionally.
		Sopranos is TV at it's finest and Deadwood takes it to an even higher plateau.

	"Huff" (2004) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Huff himself is a rarity in television - he's a believable therapist.
		He tempers the heavy tone of the series with a quick wit and a morbid sense of humor, putting wholly aside the wacky caricatures of his previous roles.
		Huff's wife and son come across with utmost sincerity and complexity as a family dedicated to protecting Huff (a man who doesn't seem to very good at protecting himself).

	Showtime Fan Fave `Huff' is Back for a Second Season - Technology - RedOrbit (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		In the case of "Huff," which returns for a second season Sunday, many of those people live in Los Angeles, which helps explain the seven Emmy nominations for Season 1 for a series that wasn't exactly on everyone's radar.
		Platt, who'll spend several episodes this season sparring with uber-guest star Sharon Stone, would, on almost any other TV show, be the best reason to tune in, but "Huff" has one of those casts that would be fun to watch even if the people writing their lines weren't pretty good.
		Paget Brewster plays Huff's wife, who'll struggle this season with the demands of her hellishly self-centered mother-in-law, Izzy (Blythe Danner, in the role that won her one of the show's two Emmys), and her own dying mother (Swoosie Kurtz).

		The good value Oliver Platt makes regular appearances as Huff's closest friend Russell and Huff also makes regular visits to his mentally unstable brother Teddy who is cared for in a private institution.
		Very now, Huff has all the makings of a high quality drama series, it's very much a vehicle for Hank Azaria though and wisely, unlike House, Huff never descends into patient of the week problems.

	Tanya Huff Reviews
		Huff is a superlative talent who brings freshness and excellence to all of her work, also adding a depth of characterization that greatly enhances the appeal of her inventive fantasy novels.
		Huff is one of the best writers we have at contemporary fantasy, particularly with a supernatural twist, and her characters are almost always the kind we remember later, even when the plot details have faded away.
		Huff's characerization and knowledge of military subculture bring the book to a suspense-filled and rousing finale once again allowing Torin Kerr to shine in her role as the touch, resourceful and surpremely competant leader.

	Tanya Huff, The Smoke Trilogy
		Tanya Huff, for example, one of those protean writers who seems to be able to write in any subgenre, from "classic" fantasy to military sf to supernatural thrillers, and do it well, started a new series while I wasn't looking.
		Huff has brought together elements of two of her most entertaining series for this one.
		It's a difficult balance, between earthy, sometimes raucous contemporary diction and serious stories around Tony and Henry Fitzroy on the one hand, complicated by history and the territoriality of vampires, which extends to their lovers, even ex-lovers; and of Tony and Lee Nicholas, complicated by Lee's ambivalence and mixed signals.

		Huff is good at his job, a good guy, a caring and devoted husband/father.
		Huff is one of those quality US imports that fall under the radar in the UK.

		That's quite a high-profile relaunch for "HUFF," which opens with psychiatrist Craig "Huff" Huffstodt (Hank Azaria) fretting over his recent fight with substance-abusing best friend Russell (Oliver Platt) and the disappearance of Huff's mentally ill brother, Teddy (Andy Comeau).
		As "HUFF" viewers will remember from season one, life for Izzy took a painful turn years ago when husband Ben (guest star Tom Skerritt) walked out on the family.
		The new season also forces Izzy to confront her relationship with mentally ill son Teddy, for whom she has felt a dysfunctional mix of terror, pity and revulsion.

		With Huff, like all their shows, Showtime manages to make a show with conflicted, real characters without resorting to graphic sex or violence.
		But Hank Azaria, as Huff, was the most unlikeable, whiny, self-involved main character I have seen in a long time - and not convincing as a compassionate person or as a psychiatrist at all.
