Production
"Daddy's Girls" was Dudley Moore's penultimate on-screen job and his last regular TV series. He later attributed his difficulties during the production of the show to the early stages of progressive supranuclear palsy (the disease that ultimately led to his death in 2002).

Reception
Although Harvey Fierstein earned praise for his performance, "Daddy's Girls" was hated by critics. New York magazine called the series "Despised, reviled."

Entertainment Weekly, somewhat prophetically, found Dudley Moore to be "wan and confused."

The Dallas Morning News could only say that "Daddy's Girls isn't horrendously bad", but predicted that it would not last until Christmas; indeed, the show was placed "on hiatus" after only three episodes aired.
