Really Surprised!

To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

This is an underrated sitcom that deserves more attention.With a wonderful performance from the always lovely Lea Thompson this sitcom focuses on cartoonist Caroline Duffy and the oddball characters that make her real life more wacky than her cartoon.Malcolm Gets, Eric Lutes, Any Lauer and Amy Pietz add so much to their respective roles, to the point where it feels more of an ensemble show rather than just being a star vehicle for Thompson.With a love story runing throughout the series, and some wickedly funny lines this show is a joy. I must just say too that the first series in particular is fabulous, rarely hitting a wrong note throughout.I think it went on a series too long, but that aside there is so much to like about this warm and charming series.

I was really annoyed to see all those comments about Richard's character and Malcolm Gets playing his part. Richard's character is performed perfectly by Malcolm Gets, no one would have done it better! This show is not some stupid show that makes u laugh on silly things, you actually laugh because this show links you to reality. Caroline is the perfect confused woman who needs love in her life and Richard is the perfect struggling artist who is only satisfied by working as one, not a cartoonist assistant. If you look at the real world, you will find that the show makes perfect sense and has been a success from A to Z. As for Spadaro's character, well she's the comic relief of the show, she and Charlie's character. but the show is a realistic Drama with the right amount of real life comedy and tragedy in it and it's a shame seeing it unappreciated like that.

Is it just me or does this lame show appeal to people only in Europe? This show is an example of what happens when power is wielded in the wrong hands. Weak premise + Very (and I mean VERY) bad writing = lousy show. So why was this on for four years in the most coveted of all timeslots you ask? Glad you asked, maybe you can help me figure this one out because I DON'T have an answer for you, Sunshine. It's still a mystery. Sorry to be so smug, but some shows just beg smug. T-Bone

Let me just say that Lea Thompson deserves better than this show. She did a lot of enjoyable acting in teen movies during the 80's and I suppose due to a lack of other offers she chose to do this sitcom. On the show Lea plays a cartoonist surrounded by her "wacky" co-horts who she spends her days with. Ever single character on the show has been done before with more success on other shows. The worst part about the show is that there is NO chemistry between Caroline and her love interest Richard, it almost looks painful for them to be together which of course makes the show even worse.
