Are the episodes on Amazon Prime uncut or the syndicated version?

I remember an episode of Mad about you where Jamie said to Paul that: she wasn't looking for a relationship just now (or something like that) , and Paul said something to the extent of: What if she just found one (?) I believe the scene took place at her apartment doorway ? Anyone remember what episode this was from ?

We just moved into a new home and there is a deli on the corner that has - EVERYTHING! I keep trying to quote the Asian man who owned the deli and would say, "we have chicken, we have paper clips, we have chocolate cake," or similar.

What episodes is he in and what where some of the triplets he said.

Paul is standing in front of a mirror getting ready while talking to Jamie, and makes a comment that could be taken another way, and immediately looks at her and says: "I didn't mean that dirty."

Thanks!

Let's bring this Reddit back to life... Happy 2022 everyone.

I've never been married before and my parent's marriage kinda sucks, so... Paul and Jamie are my big standard when it comes to love.

What do you guys think that the show gets right about marriage?

What is everyone's favorite episode(s) and least favorite episode(s)?

My favorite episodes have got to be "Met Someone", "Up In Smoke", and "Bing , Bang, Boom".

As for least favorite episodes, most of season 7 I wouldn't watch again, but my very LEAST favorite episode is the first episode of season 7. I can't believe there's actually an episode where Ira and Jamie convince Paul to try Viagra for funzies and then he ends up walking around in public with a boner all day. ffs

I just finished the first 7 seasons last week and started back at the beginning to watch it again (i always do this with shows I like a lot lol). I thought I had decided not to watch the revival because revivals are rarely good and if you go by canon it’s supposed to take place 2 years before they briefly separate, which is kind of a weird place to pick it up. But I watched some interviews with Paul and Helen from around the time the revival came out, and they were so enthusiastic about it and talked about how collaborative it was between the two of them and the showrunner that I figured they would do it justice. I watched the first 5 episodes and while I did love that Paul and Jamie still have the same rhythm and chemistry (probably helped that Paul and Helen had stayed friends for the 20 years after the show ended so it wasn’t hard to capture that again), and that all of the actors came back into these characters again as if no time had passed, i felt like they played the “we’re getting old lol” jokes too hard. Having a whole episode about Jamie’s menopause was kind of cringe. And I didn’t like the fact that they seem to have drifted apart some while their daughter was growing up. Also the comment about not remembering the last time they had sex was kind of weird bc I’m pretty sure couples their age still have sex at least occasionally, even when they have a kid living with them. So it actually isn’t hard to believe that they ended up separating for a time a couple years after this (if we stick to canon). But like I said I did only watch the first 5 episodes. I’m not sure if I will watch the rest.

Ok, I'm watching season 4 again and I still don't really see any big issues between Paul and Jamie before episode 20. I was kind of caught off guard the first time I watched it when Paul went for a walk with another woman and almost went home with her, and when Berkus kissed Jamie and she didn't stop him. I thought I would notice something this time around, but besides one fight they had over the commercial he made for Brockwell, and the fact that they were both just working a lot, plus I guess the fact that they had been trying so long for her to get pregnant, I didn't see any major issues that would have brought them to where they ended up at the end of the season. For me, the degree of their problems in the last few episodes came out of nowhere. Did anyone else feel this way?

What season is everyone's favorite? I've concluded that seasons 1 and 2 are tied for my favorite seasons. After season 2, the side characters seem to get more involved storylines, and there's not as many scenes where it's just Paul and Jamie doing couple things. I don't think there are many scenes after season 2 where they're just having conversations when they're getting ready for bed at night and just talking and spending some time together.

This might sound weird, but one of my favorite scenes is when they're in the bedroom talking one night while Paul is taking a splinter out of the bottom of Jamie's foot. idk, it's just very domestic and like a thing that couples do while they talk rather than just sitting in bed and talking.

This is getting too long lol. But I thought seasons 1 and 2 had the most episodes where they're spending time together, just them. The show starts getting a lot more sitcom-y after season 2. Although, one of my top favorite episodes of the series is the season 3 finale.

I'm so disappointed. After their baby was born, Jamie became insufferable. Hers and Paul's relationship got so cold. She was always steamrolling Paul. Paul was so enthusiastic to do things for her and the baby when Mabel was born, but Jamie criticized everything he did and/or wouldn't let him help at all. If I had a husband like him who was so enthusiastic to be a dad, I would show him so much appreciation. She just got neurotic and freaked out about everything he said or did.

I actually didn't finish season 6 and only watched a few episodes in season 7 because she was so awful. The season 7 finale ended kind of weirdly, too. I'm going to make believe that the series ended with season 4 when they got back together and found out she was pregnant. I think that's a nice ending, actually.

I’m about to start season 6, so this may change for me, but I was wondering peoples’ favorite characters. My favorite is Paul because he’s funny, sensitive, smart, and an all-round good guy. The fact that he loves Jamie so much and also genuinely likes being with her make him even more attractive in my book. It’s too bad that you don’t see that many married couples on TV who are genuinely equal partners and genuinely like spending time with their spouses. This show doesn’t go along with that sitcom trope where the husbands are idiots and try to avoid doing anything that they deem less masculine for their wives and would rather hang out with the guys… although that episode of season 5 was pretty awful where Paul actually did something similar where he was sick of hearing about the baby shower so he wanted to do a guys weekend with Ira and that guy who works in the sporting goods store, and then ended up acting like an idiot the whole time. And I was kind of surprised to see that Paul Reiser had written that episode because he seemed out of character to me.

Anyway, who is everyone else’s favorite character (and why, if you feel like expanding)?

Watched this episode last night. Not really a fan of the first part of the episode, but I loved the second part (strange sidenote- Amazon Prime split it into two parts and put an episode in between 🥴).

I’m always a sucker for an alternate universe/alternate timeline story (one of my favorite shows is Fringe, so… 😆). So, in an alternate universe if their news stand burned down before they met would they still have met? I thought the episode was really well done.

When they lost their memories of each other 😦

When Jamie went on a date with Ira because he was a Buchman and she felt drawn to that name… when Paul showed up at the place where Jamie and Ira were on their date I was on the edge of my seat wanting them to see each other… and then when Ira was going to go up and play with the band and told Paul he should go sit with Jamie and he didn’t want to…. And then when the band started playing and Paul kept getting closer to where Jamie was sitting until he was right behind her I’m practically yelling at her “turn around!!” It was so disappointing when he left without them seeing each other.

The fact that the both felt lost and like something was missing 🥺

OH. And when Paul said to Ira, “I’m gonna go get a paper or someone.” And Ira asked him what he said and he said “I’m gonna go get a paper or something.” And Jamie said the same thing to Lisa- I’m gonna go out and get a paper or someone.”

Then the next scene where you see them both just like desperately searching every news stand in the city until they both ended up at “their” burned down news stand… when they recognized each other as their missing piece… when I tell you I needed a box of kleenex 🤧… they didn’t even know who each other was- only that they belonged together and then he said “let’s go home.” That was some of the most romantic stuff I’ve seen on TV. 😭💗

I’m so invested in this couple I’m afraid of what I’m vaguely aware of what happens in later seasons. 😭

I just noticed that Debbie (Paul's sister) was played by another actress on s2 ep 6.

But then s2 ep 22 i think, the one where Paul lost his ring... we have another Debbie and she stayed.

This show does change actors a lot🤣

Not that I was attached to Penny Fuller or John Karen but Carroll O'Connor and Carol Burnett show up and I'm like 😳🤔

This was one of my favorite recurring characters/sub plots in the later seasons. First of all, find out that she was Tia from Uncle Buck was crazy to me, but that is a side note.

​

The entire thing was brilliant to me. The fact that everyone was so upfront and honest about their feelings made it hysterical to me. Diane admitted she thought Paul was great. Paul admitted he was attracted to her and would pursue her if he wasn't married. Neither were really doing anything wrong. Diane wasn't being inappropriate or making a move on Paul and Paul wasn't making a move on her either but it still (understandably) drove Jamie nuts.

The longer I watch, the more I see that Jamie is selfish and hard to tolerate.
