" Don't get me wrong: If you're in the mood for some swashbuckling eater-tainment--a place to quaff a Bass or John Courage while watching legitimate Shakespeare staged with a sense of fun--this 'Macbeth' is your ticket."
Atlanta Journal and Constitution

" Don't get me wrong. Our picks are far superior to those of the State Journal, which would endorse a tree stump if it opposed living wage pay, tenant protections and genuine land use controls."
Madison, Wisconsin, Capital Times

"But, please, don't get me wrong. We're not those doting grandparents you read about in Ann Landers' column."
Dayton Daily News

" Don't get me wrong: Just like the Roxbury, there are huge lines on weekends, and the Sunset Room also has a smart and sophisticated doorman, Eric James."
Los Angeles Times

" Don't get me wrong. I am as hungry as the next guy to see a picture of my uncle's new boat dock, or the nifty snowfall at my mom's house, but things are getting out of hand."
Cincinnati Enquirer

"If you are a 'Scream' fan this isn't as violent as the first one. Don't get me wrong, there's still a high body count--it's just not as gory violent."
Orange County Register

" Don't get me wrong: I swallowed the first few minutes of the new TV movie 'Mary and Rhoda' like a cold Orange Crush on a hot summer day."
Boston Globe

" Don't get me wrong. There's much that's intriguing, and appealing, about Bradley's campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination."
American Journalism Review
