Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

topseeded I really loved the first season. But when the focus shifted to the girl across the hall, I shifted to another channel. It turned into another, "Will they fall in love"?, "Will they stay in love"?, "Is her misunderstanding of what she overheard him say going to ruin their love for each other"? "Will they get back together"?, What a crying shame, it was such an original show. The characters were so interesting. The bum who lived in the phone booth. The Latino lady who ran the gift shop. The hooker that hung out in the bar. The whitey hating black man who ran the food counter. The clueless police officers. And the characters that who just passing through.It had such great potential. The show could have ran for 20 years.Hey! How about a sequel? Or even a remake?

Randal Greenwood The writing was very good, much in the same vein as Night Court, but situated in a bus stop managed by a recovering alcoholic (played brilliantly by John Larroquette)Other cast members were strong and believable. My favorites cast members included the cook at the coffee shop in the bus station and the hooker, and cops who frequently hung out at the bus coffee shop. Like Night Court, some episodes touched the heart, while others were just for laughs.The show followed on the heels of the canceling of Night Court in 1992 after a nine year run. Larroquette's strong showing in a supporting role as Dan Fielding opened the way for this chance at heading up a new show. I would call it a spin off and followed in the same lines as the successful Night court format of scripts and cast. While I felt the Larroquette show did a magnificent job, for some reason the show didn't capture a large enough audience and only lasted two seasons before the ax fell and the show was can-celled. Maybe a different night would have exposed the show to a larger audience.

pfelon Unique, funny and pure genius. This show was the perfect forum for Larroquette's abilities and he played extremely well off of the other actors. I still hold a grudge against NBC for changing, then changing, then changing, then cancelling the show. If it had not been constantly tinkered-with and toned down, it might still be running. I mean, how many comedic programs deal with a recovering alcoholic and have a prostitute as a character? With the recent explosion of television programs dealing with darker content, it's easy to see that this show was ahead of its time. I'd love to get the DVDs, though NBC may not release them.

Aurthur The show was full of surprises. It was always hilarious, and complete with zany characters. It was intelligently written, but the humour was easy to understand. Full of racial (but not racist) jokes, it always kept you in stitches. While not for children, it was for everyone who likes to laugh and doesn't take life too seriously.
