Synopsis

Committed is a television sitcom that aired on NBC as a midseason replacement from January 4 to March 15, 2005. Although originally broadcast twice a week the series eventually settled in a regular timeslot on Tuesdays at 9:30PM EST after Scrubs. The show starred Josh Cooke and Jennifer Finnigan and costarred Darius McCrary, Tammy Lynn Michaels and Tom Poston. Cooke and Finnigan played two single and extremely eccentric New Yorkers who are subject to constant interference when they begin dating from their equally eccentric friends and Finnigan's roommate, known only as "Dying Clown" or "Clown" who was actually a clown, played by Tom Poston. The show ran for 13 episodes. Clips and fan-generated montages can still be found online, but no official DVDs have been produced.

SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
kevinbullockfb This was the first sitcom in a long time where I actually LAUGHED! Great chemistry, great humorous topics (like the black dude in the wheelchair), well written, hilarious to watch!!! I love to find videos on Youtube!!Great use of Sitcom Stars (Tom Poston, Bob Newheart, Jerry Van Dyke)!!If an official DVD ever comes out, I'll be the first to pick it up!!
katka42 Well, this show is long gone, but I still think of it sometimes. It was SO funny; I rarely laugh as hard as I did from this TV show! But it was also touching. Even "Mr. Binkley," as I always referred to Tom Poston, as a dying clown in the closet, was absurd, and yet it was comforting to have him around! My favorite scene was when Josh and her best friend (who happened to be a black man in a wheelchair), were each trying to be the first to talk to Marni. It was hysterical as they just played music as the two vied to get to her first. The other that sticks with me was bittersweet; the episode about the first snow. If this show comes out on DVD, I'm there!
ekawalaski Sometimes, the TV allows us access to good shows. Some other times, TV gives us crap. Although I do not particularly love the cast of "Committed," I found it shameful that talents were wasted on such a production."Committed" is one of those shows that networks would put in a recycle pin, or "on the shelf," because it is something that needs a lot of work. However, it is not too bad that they would cancel its existence. This particular show does not offer any intellectual process or depth of thought. Instead, it is accumulates all kinds of clichés and over-seen situation into one frame. In other words, "Threes Company" seems like an intelligent show in comparison with "Committed." And unlike any other funny TV shows, such as "Grounded for Life," "Still Standing," and some others, the funny jokes are not spontaneous and do not have anything new for an adult to be amused by; furthermore, the situations were built on silliest thoughts and assumptions that a real person would fall into.The character development in "Committed" is committed for deterioration of mind. There is no development whatsoever, and the plot does not enhance itself. It is even worse because there is no one to advance or make the plot viable (almost plot-less). Sadly, "Committed" is nothing but a draft for TV.The only reason I watched this show is because of three actors, Jennifer Finnigan, Tammy Lynn Michaels, and Darius McCrary (you have to remember him from "Family Matters"). Those are three actors I respect and adore, but, unfortunately, their talents were completely wasted here. Finnigan, the protagonist (also famous for her role in "Crossing Jordan") is such a pretty gal, but in "Committed" she is most annoying and stupid character with a shrieking voice. T.L. Michaels is a babe, if you remember her in "Popular," and she plays a helping character who is a nanny. McCrary is someone I was hoping to see more of his work, but being a helping character in this show, he is unable to deliver a soaring performance. Otherwise, just watching Finnigan and Michaels is enough to make an effort to glimpse at this travesty called "Committed." The bottom line is this: the network needed something to fill in the empty slot, so they closed their eyes and randomly selected one of the scripts on the shelves. It is even clear that some elements of this show is similar to "Scrubs" where we see the character "Clown" being Clown like "Janitor" is Janitor in "Scrubs." Though, do not be mistaken, this show has nothing close to/with "Scrubs." Therefore, watching "Committed" is only watching ages fleeing from our time, and the makers of this show are the ones who should be committed.
carlos jara Marni is a great girl, that girl, who looks incredible, plus a great heart, this series make smile every time that I saw it, has a light humor, great actress.... I can not see "Close to home" just because I always want to remember that actress like Marni....
