Bonnie Hunt is absolutely amazing and it is a *travesty* that "The Bonnie Hunt Show" and "The Building" were both so incredibly short-lived. The pilot for "The Bonnie Hunt Show" is one of the best half-hours in television. And the pilot of "The Building" was wonderful as well.
Right from the beginning of "The Bonnie Hunt Show" she sets up these wacky characters. You're rooting for Bonnie - navigating her way through her first day on the job. The overlapping dialogue and the quick pace that is just *perfect* for the news room setting. (I've read that she made the cast watch "The Front Page" to get that sense of speed and timing. Awesome!)
Bonnie Hunt is great in everything she does. She's often the best thing in whatever movie she's in. If you ever get a chance to watch this show, DO IT. You won't regret it!
