BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment

Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

TBJCSKCNRRQTreviews After getting fired from her job at a news station for, yet again, letting her temper get the best of her in the face of disrespectful behavior towards her, feminist Maya Gallo goes to the fashion magazine run by her distant father, and finds herself being hired for a staff position. So begins the seven years of Just Shoot Me, with the clever wit, sarcastic jokes, and sit-com humor that often has a relatively provocative subject or moral to it, and almost always hits the nail on the head. The cast is marvelous, with all five regulars being immensely funny and having great chemistry with each other. Giacomo is a positive surprise in the lead as angry and opinionated, Segal is, as expected, very good, as the naive boss who can't do anything by himself, Malick I honestly don't know from anything else, but she shines as the former supermodel who *refuses* to give up her glory days. Colantoni is spot-on as the overly sensitive, womanizing photographer, and Spade gets to do his schtick of the pathetic, snarky guy who can't get a girl for the life of him. It's no secret that his caustic remarks are my favorite thing about this series. Do not miss this, if you enjoy when David does that. The character gallery is always well-stocked with colorful personalities, and in spite of the stereotypes that are apparent in many of the portrayals, this holds a lot of truths about many types of people. This had its share of celebrities popping up, and in general the guests, recurring or otherwise, tend to be cool. The acting is well-done. While not every single episode was flawless, the laughs are guaranteed, and the finale manages to balance entertaining with sweetness and a nice, proper farewell to the show, in a way that few are able to. A lot of the gags have to do with humiliation, and there is gross-out/bodily function material, as well. There's usually quite a bit of eye-candy, most of it for the males. That's kind of a Levitan trademark, isn't it? This, and the aptly titled Stacked, which, for those who are unaware, stars Pamela Anderson... yeah. Then again, they're also jam-packed with punchlines that seldom fall flat. I have not watched Back to You thus far, I am going to, trust me, I'm too big a fan of Grammar to not. I recommend this to anyone who can imagine liking it. 8/10

Trey Mercartne "Just Shoot Me" was a highly successful American sitcom that ran for 7 seasons between 1997 and 2003. It's one of the finest television comedies you could ever hope to find, with a superb cast and a script that is consistently of the highest quality. In short, this is one show you can't afford to miss.The most crucial element to the show's success is probably it's excellent ensemble cast, who have such great chemistry and work so well together. Wendie Malick steals the show for me. She is flawless as the ex-Model whose personal life is full of dubious activities (and various substances!). Malick injects real humanity to Nina Van Horn. The character is, in my opinion, infinitely more interesting than the frankly ridiculous Karen Walker of rival show "Will and Grace". Laura San Giacomo gives a typically assured performance as Maya. George Segal is also superb, and David Spade can always be relied upon for a laugh.The writing is the spine of any Sitcom, and "Just Shoot Me!" has one of the best there is. Great, witty repartee between the characters and some pretty great character development go towards making this show what it is. Who ever thought the simple line "My friend Binny..." could be so hilarious? Why the show didn't pick up several Emmy's for it's cast and writers I'll never know. Truth is, it's much better than many of the shows that have triumphed at that particular awards show. Another great thing about the show is that it didn't outstay it's welcome - there were 7 great seasons of the show and it most definitely went out on top."Just Shoot Me!" is everything Sitcom should be. Witty, intelligent and with a wonderful cast portraying diverse and realistic characters. This is as good as it gets.

Christopher Smith David Spade is great in this hilarious, yet underrated sitcom set in a New York about the staff of Blush, a fashion magazine in the tradition of REDBOOK. The show aired from 1997 to 2003 and while the later episodes were the better ones, the first season (just released to DVD along with the second season) contains some of the best episodes, including my personal favorite episode, titled "In Your Dreams". Despite the fact that the show never really had one main character, the stand out for me as always been David Spade. I've always been a big fan of David Spade and this show was perfect for him. As the assistant to Jack Gallo (the always wonderful George Segal), David Spade provided the show with much needed sarcasm and wise-cracking like only he can. This is especially evident in the first season and the second season. Though the show was canceled last year, it remains in syndication and still remains one of the best sitcoms ever. My rating: 10/10

silknomad I enjoy comedy but I tend to get bored by cliche and repetition in a lot of the sitcoms on TV. Just shoot me is one of the funniest and most original sitcoms on TV. The characters are unique and well thought out. The relationships between the characters are a character in themselves. Unlike a lot of other sitcoms, the actors don't over act, their coolness is hysterical. Finch (David Spade) has me rolling around the floor. Elliot (Enrico Colantoni) makes tears come out of my eyes, and I listen attentively when Jack Gallo (George Segal) has a thought provoking "life experience" story to tell. I enjoy the cryptic magazine comments and the impeccable skills of Nina Van Horn and Laura San Giacomo (AKA the Pretty Woman).My all time favorite Just Shoot Me moment. The "Psycho" edition. Finch tries to convince Elliott that the movie Psycho didn't scare him. Elliott sets Finch up in the kitchen and Finch freezes: HYSTERICAL. I laugh when I think about it.
