Sitcoms

If you enjoy detailed looks at hit shows, I delve into Rhoda Season 3, Maude Season 2, Newhart Season 7, One Day at a Time Season 7, I Love Lucy Season 6, WKRP in Cincinnati Season 4, and Bewitched Season 2. I offer up The 10 Best Episodes of The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Designing Women, WKRP in Cincinnati, Everybody Loves Raymond and Kate & Allie -- and probably not the episodes you're expecting. I also pen an appreciation of the underrated Mike & Molly, and serve up some thoughts as to why The New Adventures of Old Christine took such a tumble in quality over its five seasons. And finally, I zero in on one of my favorite sitcom writers, Blake Hunter, a guiding force behind WKRP.

And if you're looking for something a bit more current, I have a piece called "Rough Edges," about two recent comedies (Back to Life and The Other Two) that made the pandemic a whole lot more bearable, and one extolling the virtues of Minx, the best new comedy I saw in 2022.
