VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Calum Hutton It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

dragonslayerz I just watched a couple episodes tonight on YouTube, I didn't even know the series existed! I thought it was pretty good but something seemed a little off to me-it was that I didn't like the Tony Shaloub character. He was a little bit too egocentric and mean. I usually adore Tony Shaloub in anything, I just didn't like the character to have so little sensitivity. I would watch him progress through a scene, and I KNEW that there were so many other layers which he could have given the character. I suppose I expected more of the sweetness of Antonio from Wings, or the complexity of Monk. Regardless, overall a good show. It's really interesting to read the comments here from back, what is it REALLY 17 years ago???? People wondering if Neal Patrick Harris will go on to do anything more, I guess all he'd done was Doogie Howser M.D. Also I note as I get older how quickly that which interests us and is the talk of the time fades into the past......Also interesting to see people commenting on Shaloub before 'Monk'. Along those lines of thought, just read today that Mary Tyler Moore has died at the age of 80, and Debbie Reynolds/Carrie Fisher just died a few weeks ago.....People who were such icons....Who even thinks about the Mary Tyler Moore show nowadays, everything changes so quickly in our society. It's not like societies in which there is little cultural/technological/societal change for hundreds of years, or one in which the tribes stories are told from generation to generation with a kind of continuity and sense of reassurance that the 'tribe' is stable and the same. Loss of a sense of conectedness...."Future Shock": I remember a time before personal computers, before cell phones, digital cameras, before color TV, before VCR's, DVD's, and I remember when TV shows/movies etc. took their time to unfold, with a rhythm which was much more natural.

GuasdualitoMan This sitcom was by far the funniest to come out on TV in the last 10 years. Its dark humor it was brilliantly written and impeccably delivered by a wonderful cast.For all its virtues, the show did the one thing shows are not allowed to do these days: they dared to be different; they were original, and brilliant, and were not afraid to look at difficult subjects (including sexual fetishes, physical disabilities and, in general, the pain of being different.) That they were able to do so without taking themselves too seriously and remaining genuinely funny seems to have escaped audiences and NBC executives alike.I guess, funny or not, the show proved a little too grown up for mainstream audiences - those who prefer to sit down in front of the TV and disengage their brains. A show that makes you laugh and think at the same time cannot possibly be successful with those who cannot walk and chew gum at the same time...The show was funny without having to resort to slapstick and - more importantly - it was a very welcome contrast to the usually bland, politically correct, completely predictable comedy that is so prevalent these days. Too bad it became a victim of its own quality.

larry.launders For a show that took a large number of other awards (if my memory serves this won 10 Golden Globe...nominations or awards, I don't recall which) I can't believe this was only put out to run for part of one season. It wasn't given much of a chance and frankly, I think it may have been over most of the viewing publics heads. And I'm not happy that it was put in a very difficult time slot and canceled quickly as it didn't have the opportunity to perform. A shame some other network couldn't have picked it up and ran with it, too.By the time this had any chance to develop a following, Heather Paige Kent had apparently already moved on to another show. Possibly others had as well. Such a shame as this was a funny AND intelligent show.However, why it is not on DVD yet is a mystery. There's a lotta junk put out there on DVD already from television's past, why not this one?

mildckn "Stark Raving Mad" was a very good show. It had a great cast (both Tony Shaloub and Neil Patrick Harris portrayed their characters perfectly), hilarious plots and writing, and (perhaps most important to NBC) it got good ratings, but NBC still cancelled it. It is a shame that they got rid of it. I think that it had already proved itself as a successful show (it didn't need time to "mature"). NBC could have brought it back. I just don't see why they got rid of this really great show.
