So I’ve gone on record in this very forum as being a great big old sap. But I just wanted to take a quick poll to see just how big a sap I am statistically speaking:
In the most recent episode, where it’s her anniversary and she dreams she’s married to Tom Hanks, did anybody else get a little misty-eyed at the end?
I’ll be out getting testosterone injections while I wait for your response…
I didn’t quite get misty-eyed, but I thought it was very sweet. I get annoyed a lot of the time by TV sentimentality, but I thought this was very well done.
Did you see the episode where she had a bit part on a soap opera? Her husband said he should be on the soap - as the coma patient. This is because the actor just left One Life To Live. His character is in a coma. I thought that was very funny.
I love that show!
I’ve heard that the “Good Morning Chicago” scenes are all (or mostly) improv. Anyone else hear this?
I understand that most of the whole show is improved. I think she fired the writers a few weeks ago.
The only parts I find funny are the Good Morning Chicago segments…the family story is so predictable and overdone. The annoying children need to be sent off to military school…
I stopped watching because of the family segments. Maybe I will check back in when reruns begin.
I saw that episode, but I definitely didn’t get that connection (never saw the soap). That is pretty good.
It definitely seems like one of those shows that’s more fun to make than it is to watch. Occasionally they do something really well, like the anniversary episode (IMO), but for the most part it’s just “comfortable” instead of laugh-out-loud funny.
Johnny Volcano is laugh out loud funny.
As was the decoupage segment.
I also really liked the part of the Tom Hanks episode (but I missed the end, my tape cut out when he was telling her to wake up… but right at that point it was very sweet.)
Johnny Volcano is laugh out loud funny. I loved the episode that showed his movie, where he played both the good guy and the bad guy 
I don’t watch it very often, but that one was funny.
Johnny Volcano cracked me up when he was doing his “warm-up” before the show in his red suit. You can tell David Duchovney is doing everything possible to try to make Bonnie laugh.
