"Superb"

By Water78, Jun 04, 2006 Report Abuse

Although not having the ocasill laugh in every episode, to me it was a great show. By the third episode it was starting to get funny. With the party she threw {or somebody else did like her father} And the neibor. I think if they gave it another shot it made of been a great show.{sorry about the spelling mistakes I am not a good speller}

"Perfect"

By ehill615, Apr 09, 2006 Report Abuse

I personally have enjoyed every episode of this show, and I was completly bummed to hear it was taken off for a while. I would much rather watch this show than The Amazing Race. I am so sick of Reality TV shows. I'm sick of watching television put peoples lives on the air, stress them out, and then sometimes humiliate them on the air. It's pathetic. Give me sit-coms anyday, and Courting Alex is one I could watch over and over. I love the witty sense of humor, and I love seeing Dabney Coleman in prime-time. He makes that show!!!moreless

"Superb"

By MCcoupe7, Mar 27, 2006 Report Abuse

At first I thought this show was bad, but once the show got past its first couple of episodes I started to like it. It is really good and airs now on Wednesday's at 8:30 instead of its premiering time a day (Monday's at 9:30). Watch the show because it is really funny!

A typical sitcom with a less-than-original story but the star (Jenna Elfman), supporting cast and some witty writing make it a nice little show.

"Great"

By Raisingdad, Feb 14, 2006 Report Abuse

The show is not particularly inovative - nor does it try but if offers 22 minutes of mildy comedic moments and a few laugh-out-loud situations.

Jenna Elfman certainly brings the show up a notch as does her counterpart Josh Randall. A bigger role for Dabney Coleman would help the show and I would loose the Assistant (Rhea Seehorn) quickly.

Overall a typical show which offers some enjoyable programming.
