My Favorite Show
This show should NEVER have been canceled. I've been trying to find a DVD of the season to no avail. The casting was superb. The only thing that could have been any better would have been to cast Olympia DuCaucas (sp?)as the mother-in-law and Cameron Diaz as the bride, but I loved the actors that were cast in both of those parts. How I wish someone could see its potential and make the series into a movie. I am generally quite critical of sit-coms, but I actually waited each week to see this one. For someone who seldom laughs out loud, I did quite a bit of it during the show. I can't recommend it enough and will wait patiently to see if someone has the good sense to revive it despite it's brief appearance. And I'll be its biggest fan!
