I'm watching every episode in order from my DVDs. I'm up to the third episode of the third (and final) season. One thing I found funny was how the episode right after she gave birth to Amelia, Georgie Ann looked like she had never been pregnant before. I guess they do that in sitcoms, but it just struck me as funny.
Another thing, just as Ben is starting to develope as a character, they replace him with another Ben. Does anyone know why the first actor left the show?
I also don't see why John, Georgie Ann and Billy Bob would just pack up and move. It just seemed forced.
However, I've been enjoying seasons 2 & 3 more than season 1. With that said, I still enjoyed season 1 and thought that Senater Smithers was funny, and I liked George Lahti and Mavis Davis, heck after a while, I even got to like Dee Dee. But I like Madeline and especially Lonnie more.
One thing that got to me was how the actress who played Madeline in seasons 2 and 3, also played (for two episodes) John's ex-wife's lover. She was also a therapist and I believe even made a same joke. In fact, they used a lot of people again, in different roles. The old lady from the season 1 finale, who dated Billy Bob, was in a season 2 episode. And Beth Broderick came back for a couple episodes in season 2, playing Dee Dee's sister.
All in all, I'd say this was a good show. It wasn't the funniest in the world (the bloopers were a lot funnier than most of the episodes) but it has nice characters and of course the charming and funny John Ritter. So I'm enjoying watching the episodes.
