Purely Joyful Movie!

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

As a senior, now, I saw that this show was now available on Showtime, so I thought I'd take a look. I never watched it when it originally aired and didn't remember why.Well, NOW I remember! If you enjoy listening to a woman whining and complaining while questioning everything that her husband does and says, this show is for you! Episode after episode of bickering. I watched three episodes and just couldn't take anymore.What surprises me is the fact that this show lasted for 7 seasons! I hate people who nit pick, and this show uses it as its framework for every show. I don't find it amusing, just grating on my nerves. Definitely NOT for me.

Okay, I watched this show because it was funny but it was never a show that I enjoyed watching repeatedly. I love sitcoms but this one was annoying at times. I felt Helen Hunt was worthy of her multi-Emmys because she really made me like her character. Paul Reiser's character was just neurotic and annoying. Their chemistry worked but the show had a great cast like Cynthia Harris, Carroll O'Connor, Carol Burnett, etc. The show was set in New York City in a large apartment which costs a small fortune if you have the money. Paul and Helen showed us how married couples have their fights but truly love each other. Maybe the show works best if the audiences are married and need to laugh at somebody's else's misery. Anyway the show stayed on for seven seasons despite Helen's Oscar Win in 1998. The casting was great but the writing lacked. It was like Seinfeld got married to Elaine and they were living together. They were just annoying at times.

Shows seem to have a lot of neurotic New Yorkers these days, lol. But Paul and Jamie Buchman were out there about the same time that Jerry, Elaine, Kraemer and George were dazzling our hearts as the neurotic singles out there in the Big Apple. However, this neurotic couple has captured peoples' hearts and funny bone as they also went through their own little so-called life. I've seen very few and I love them already. You can tell that the two MUST have the chemistry that they display on screen and must have a lot of respect for each other. I can't wait to see it again either. Paul Reiser is one of my favorite actors and I loved him In Beverly Hills Cop, so seeing him more in the show is a welcome change.

I absolutely love this show. It just hits the spot, It's funny and then is a loving quality, showing struggles, victories, and just appeals. Plus I have always loved Helen Hunt, so it's a added bonus that she's a main character. Which is the original reason I started watching the show, but then when I watched it I loved it, and so kept watching. I absolutely love the camaradie that Paul and Jamey have together, it touches the funny yet the loving parts of relationships. The kind that most people love to have. It's just a awesome show and I look forward to watching it every time it comes on. And I also love the show's theme song "Mad About You by Belinda Carlisle".
