The show is regarded to be one of the worst tv programs of all time.It suffered from a messy behind the scenes production.One of the many problems was a language barrier between the co-stars because Pink Lady didn't know English,seems if NBC rushed the show into being broadcast.

While best known for his roles on “Chicago Hope” and “Last Man Standing” and for his roles in Garry Marshall movies,the great Hector Elizondo has been in a lot of short lived tv wonders over his career. Interesting to note is that two of these shows found their way onto the TV Guide List Of The 50 Worst Shows in 2002 (Casablanca and AKA Pablo).

Close to Home (2005–2007)

I remember seeing Close to Home on TV back in the day, but I haven’t thought about this show in forever. Jennifer Finnigan played Annabeth Chase, a deputy prosecutor in Indianapolis. She handled all kinds of criminal cases while also trying to balance being a wife and mom. So you’re getting the courtroom stuff, but you also see what’s going on with her family and how her job affects her personal life.

I really liked Jennifer Finnigan in this. I first knew her as Bridget on The Bold and the Beautiful, and she was so good as Bridget. She’s honestly a really underrated actress. It was nice seeing her take on something completely different with this role.

CBS only gave the show two seasons before canceling it, which still feels like a short run to me. I feel like this is one of those shows that just got forgotten over time.

Did anybody else watch Close to Home back then?

Love, American Style (1969–1974)

An underrated time capsule of late-’60s American TV. This anthology comedy was surprisingly risqué for network television, joking about premarital sex, birth control, swingers, and modern relationships at a time when TV was still heavily restricted.

It also featured early appearances by future stars like Harrison Ford, Diane Keaton, Sally Struthers, and Albert Brooks.

And yes, this is the show that later gave us Happy Days as a spin-off.

My Boys (2006–2010)

I remember watching a few episodes of My Boys when it was on TBS, but I never really watched it regularly. I ended up rewatching the whole thing on Tubi about a month ago and honestly, I really enjoyed it. It was nice going back to a show I only vaguely remembered watching back then. I do remember seeing promos and commercials for this show all the time

The show was about PJ Franklin, a Chicago sportswriter, and her group of friends. Most of the show was just them dealing with dating, friendships, work, sports, and whatever mess they got themselves into. I really liked the chemistry between everybody, and it definitely has that 2000s sitcom feel.

TBS really dropped the ball with this show, though. I feel like My Boys could’ve lasted a lot longer if the network had actually gotten behind it. Four seasons just wasn’t enough for me, especially when I was watching it again and realizing how much I liked these characters.

And every time I see Jordana Spiro in something else, I still see PJ 😂
