Oh, Everybody Loves Raymond was a great one too.  Never paid it much attention, until my mom made me watch it.    :p

I liked Just Shoot Me which, as far as I can tell, isn't anyone's favorite sit-com. But there is no accounting for taste.  Something about that show speaks to me.

I liked that show.  Laura San Giacomo should wear tighter sweaters.
I think the whole thing just gelled.  The whole cast was great. 

I always think of Laura San as The Devil's Bride character from The Stand.

Same here.  I loved the book but that TV miniseries was just bad.

I actually thought the TV mini-series was a pretty good adaption of a book I thought was unadaptable.

Now the TV miniseries of The Shining was awful.  Ever since the Kubrick film, I've been waiting for Jack to get up after getting stabbed in the back and say "You killed me you bitch!" but I guess I'll have to wait another 20 years.

I mean, I know he says it in the TV miniseries but only after possibly getting killed with a croquet ball?  WTH?  Croquet balls aren't scary at all.

I never understood the appeal of "Scrubs." 

You didn't???   Let me clarify it for you...

People exist only to orgamism.   Those seven seconds out of their day is all that matters.  Everything else is just fodder.

I will give you this much.  If it wasn't for the character of Dr. Cox, the show would blow.  But his character is worth waiting on.

"I Love Lucy".  Nothing since can compare.
