Reviews
What the critics say average 6.3 from 4 outlets
- 8.0 New York TimesAnita Gates
This television film's greatest asset is Ted Danson, whose best-known characters have been less than idealistic (an arrogant bar owner on "Cheers," a curmudgeonly doctor on "Becker").

No, I'm not announcing a "Becker" reunion special, but "Knights of the South Bronx" (7 p.m., A&E), an intelligent TV drama based on the real life of one man who changed the lives of dozens of students.
Read - 6.0 Colorado Chess InformantTodd Bardwick
Despite a few swear words that were inappropriate and unnecessary for a children's movie, I thought Knights of the South Bronx was entertaining and accurately portrayed the benefits of chess for kids.
