Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Megamind To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.
Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
drep681 HA! Thats funny because the only episode of this show that I remember was the one where she was learning how to kiss. If I recall she paid some boy to help her learn and then her boyfriend walked in on them. Funny. I was only 11 when this show aired, and I loved it! Weird though that I don't even remember Judith Light being in it, and you think I would, being I was such a big fan of Whos the Boss. All these years later I can still remember EXACTLY what the main character of this show looked like. I think it was probably very cheesy, considering I like it when I was 11, but thats how most shows were back then. I miss shows like this these days!
philzrule It still drives me nuts that they canceled this show after a year, just b/c it didn't keep all of Who's the Boss's audience. If I'm not mistaken, it was somewhere in the early 30s in the ratings. Earl and Office didn't get that high last year and they're both considered hits. Unreal. Brian Doolan remains one of my favorite television characters of all time, right up there with Alex P. Keaton and Detective Frank Pemblemton. Weird company, I know. But I'm glad to see that he's still getting work, he was the best part of SoaP. The most memorable episode I can think of is when Brian became the security guard at Angela's tennis camp. It was one of the few episodes that focused on him, and I found it hysterical. I still laugh just thinking of it. Please, oh please, put it out on DVD!
jaiebey I thought Phenom was great. It had snappy one liners, good scenes and characters and wasn't limited to 30 second clips of jokes to pad it out. I was at college at the time and around 25 and I still found it funny and fresh, and watchable on several levels. I've not seen it since either in repeats in the UK or on DVD or on satellite shows - which is a great sadness. We have Knight Rider and even Autocar (groan) which are played regularly and available on DVD. I've no idea ow many series were shown on TV but I'm sure they could fit on a single 2-disc release. Bring it back and bring it out on DVD. Todd Louiso is a hunk in it, too.
heatsand The premise for the t.v. show "Phenom" was actually pretty original but the show was not particularly amazing. It was just ok. What I found myself tuning in to see was the older brother character played by Todd Louiso. He was neurotic and funny, not to mention much less gifted than the main character (played by Angela Goethals). He was a very original character for a sitcom. I was pleasantly surprised to see Louiso pop up recently in "High Fidelity" as one of John Cusack's record store employees. Louiso and Jack Black were great together! Check out "Phenom" if it's ever on t.v. for Todd Louiso.
