    This show was really clever, well written, and the actors were all great! I hope it airs again!

    I rate this show a 10! Funny funny funny....if you were a fan of this show too please write and find out how we can persuade CBS to get it back on the air! It truly is very entertaining story writing. Christine is a down to Earth character that most people can really relate to. Julia has a genuine witty spirit that brings her character to life and Wanda Sykes is just hilarious! I just can believe this show would lose its slot! There is too much crap on TV.moreless

  • A great show I was sadto see cancelled.

    So this show centersaround 40 sth Chrsitine Campbell, who is divorced, has a kid (Ritcheie) and is searcing for a new husband, boyfriend, male ocmpany. She owns a gym with her BF Barb, and has a bad addiction to wine and alcohol in general. Also on the show is Christine's brother Matthew, who graduated on psychology, Richard, Chrisitne's ex, and her new girlfriend, mother-of-his-kid Chirstine (NeW Chirstine) and meanie soccer moms Marly & Lyndsay.

    I loved this show cause of it's humor and storylins which were great and every episode left me in a good mood. But fortunately, the show ended on a niceplace, with Richard & New Christine startitng a fmaily & Chrstine having a stable relationship with Max & going to college.

    OVerall: Smart, funny series. 8.5/10.moreless

    Might I say that cable T.V. made a huge error by not picking up this show. Everyone I know that watched this show loved it. We had so many laughs. Great, smart, and witty writing for such a talented cast. This was a perfect arena for Julia to strut her talents. We miss you Julia and look forward to your return to television. Just hope we don't have to wait too long. The last wait was far too long. And please, feel free to bring the rest of the brilliant cast along for the ride. There was such amazing chemistry.moreless

  • There's humor that I call old ppl humor (kinda corny), then there is crazy, immoral, immature humor that's hilarious yet brutal (Family Guy, It's Always Sunny, etc). Old Christine sits between both ends of the spectrum. It has the best of both worlds.moreless

    The New Adventures of Old Christine is a great, underrated show. When I pointed this out, my sister immediately said, "It was OVERrated when it first came out," as if that evened things out.

    Julia Louis-Dreyfuss plays old Christine--a divorcee with a young son and an ex-husband whose new girlfriend is also named Christine (hence making Christine "old" Christine--get it? plus she's in her 30's while the new girl is maybe in her 20's.. hahhhhhhhh).. Then there are her "sidekicks"/side characters (which, as we all know, almost always trump main)--her slacker brother Matthew that's in his late 20'/early 30's & still lives with her, & black bestfriend slash fellow divorcee Barb (Wanda Sykes) whose suggested solution to everything is arson, according to Christine. With the crazy mix of yahoos and the awkwardness of the circumstances (like Christine still hanging with her ex because they share a son), hilarity ensues.

    The storylines are sometimes backed by psych issues (like Matthew's attachment to his sister and mom). In 1 episode, Christine has sex dreams about her brother Matthew, and in another, Matthew is told by his shrink that he can't be in a serious relationship with a woman because he's in love with his sister. Which made me LOL like literally.

    Old Christine is funny & risque like Family Guy & It's Always Sunny ARE--but with a certain level of maturity and order. I think it's a really good show & I'm glad it hasn't been pulled off the air.moreless
