Great Film overall

Did you people see the same film I saw?

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Jesse Warner (Christina Applegate) is a single mom to Little John in Buffalo. She lives at home with her father (George Dzundza) and two brothers, one voluntarily silent. Diego (Bruno Campos) is the new neighbor from Chile and her new love interest. She works at her traditional father's bar with girlfriends Carrie (Jennifer Milmore) and Linda (Liza Snyder). Complicating matters is her ex-husband, who walked out on her 7 years before, but is back to reinsert himself into her life. In the second season, she's studying to be a nurse and gets a job at a clinic. There are other changes including little odd ones like Milmore's hair and big ones likes the disappearance of her family. Dzundza is a big personality and the show feels odd without such a big part of her life.This is a Christina Applegate vehicle. After the success of Married with Children, the folks at NBC thought they had the formula to built around Christina. As such, it always felt fake and chemistry never truly set right. It just seemed to be too many things going on in this show. When they make one character voluntarily mute, it just showed how silly the writers got. The desperation really showed when it gets retooled dramatically for the second season. It's just a random sitcom to showcase Applegate and nothing more.

I'll admit I was skeptical since I never cared for "Married, With Children" but Christina Applegate blew me away with "Jesse." Showing how strong, yet sensitive a woman can be is so great. Her cute Chilean boyfriend is an added bonus and I HOPE they get married....

The producers of Friends have done it again. A comedy about the struggles we all go through life displayed in the funniest way possible. Like, Friends, Jesse has great actors such as Christina Applegate (from Married.. With Children). All the episodes and the stories are very well done. No wonder this show reached the top-ten so fast. Extremely entertaining. I hope this show stays around for a long time.

I love this show!! Best new show of the fall season. It makes me laugh every time I watch it. Albeit, I've only seen it 2 times, however I have fallen for Jesse's Mute brother, John Lehr. He's adorable. And her neighbor!! WOO HOO!!
