Synopsis

Dharma & Greg is an American television sitcom that aired from September 24, 1997, to April 30, 2002. It stars Jenna Elfman and Thomas Gibson as Dharma and Greg Montgomery, a couple who got married on their first date despite being complete opposites. The series is co-produced by Chuck Lorre Productions, More-Medavoy Productions and 4 to 6 Foot Productions in association with 20th Century Fox Television for ABC. The show's theme song was written and performed by composer Dennis C. Brown. Created by executive producers Dottie Dartland and Chuck Lorre, the comedy took much of its inspiration from so-called culture-clash "fish out of water" situations. The show earned eight Golden Globe nominations, six Emmy Award nominations, and six Satellite Awards nominations. Elfman earned a Golden Globe in 1999 for Best Actress.

CheerupSilver Very Cool!!!
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Matho The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
monsterb-72498 I absolutely adore this show! I can't find anything else that quite compares. It's romantic, it's funny, it's witty, it's silly and it's fun. It's brilliantly written and acted perfectly with characters that actually make me laugh, unlike other sitcoms. It's the perfect example of how opposites attract and the comedy that ensues as the characters react to lifestyles or situations they wouldn't otherwise encounter. Above all, it's a show about love, respect and open communication. Dharma and Greg epitomize the perfectly imperfect fun loving relationship. I love watching re-runs (I bought the whole series) in my kitchen while I make dinner. It's light hearted, makes me feel good and entertains me while I cook. I only wish there were more episodes!
debalan This show is on our list for the best TV comedy show and rates a BIG FAT 10.We know the premise is unrealistic and the characters are a lot off-center but the show ALWAYS makes us laugh out loud. There are a lot of shows that make us chuckle, but it rare to find a show that can consistently produce real laughter. Even when we see the same show again and again, we still laugh. What a treasure and a treat.As goofy as this story is the actors make it work. Now if we can only get seasons 2-5 on DVD we will be happy campers and we will never have to have a day without a laugh again.
David We loved this series, yes the characters can seem shallow, and the plots a little zany, but then it is entertainment, so don't take it so seriously...There have not been many programs (especially on American TV) which I have found consistently funny and have greatly enjoyed watching every episode. Even MASH one of my all time favorites had a number of dud episodes. However Dharma and Greg did not for me. The characters grew over time, the shallowness of the parents revealed itself as the various weaknesses within themselves being covered up, and the plots kept up a level of charm and wit that is so rare these days.Just waiting for it to come back on rerun :-)
valerie-91 I have been using my DVR to catch all the reruns I can find (DVR makes it so easy), since this is one of my all-time favorite sitcoms ever. The central cast of Greg, Dharma, his folks, her folks, as well as their friends Pete and Jane were all such well developed characters. The writing and chemistry was exceptional and made watching the show true entertainment. The guest appearances were always a riot as well and dove-tailed into the show so easily; they never strained the believability of the show or the story. This show always tended towards the positive, with the few exceptions of shows that dealt with Dharma and Greg having/adopting a baby (for instance). Even though there were some emotionally "heavy" episodes, the eventual outcome was positive. This certainly made for an inspirational, yet highly comedic half hour of entertainment.I am hoping that the yet to be released TV show "Courting Alex" will be just as successful, since Jenna Elfman is such a great actress/comedienne and then hopefully the Dharma and Greg series will be released to purchase on DVD! I have also been waiting for news of DVD release of "Step by Step" and "Family Matters" and have heard (as of 12/2005) that ABC is considering a 'best of' collection of both of these series and depending on consumer response, may or may not release the entire collection for purchase. Keeping my fingers crossed that will happen!By-the-by, IMDb lists 2 episodes as unknown, but they are actually #14 & #15 from Season 3. And happy days - the First season will be available to purchase on June 25, 2006. Been watching Courting Alex, which is cute, Jenna Elfman is an underrated talent - beautiful & funny! Hope she goes on to make more shows on TV and/or big screen!
