Jesse

The creators of Friends really only seem to have been able to come up with one successful sitcom and this one is not it. You can see this because half the cast was dropped after the first season and the show was completely reformatted, not for the better. Christina Applegate deserves better than this and hopefully she will find something. The only reason this show lasted at all was because of its timeslot after the mega-hit Friends and because it came from the creators of Friends.

Well, I will have to say that the show is great, but I also have to say that the second season is not as great as the first one... and why isn't there an explanation for the disappearing of jesse's father and brothers?... I think the the only reason that I watched the show was because of jesse's brother - Jr. that is played by john lehr, he is so cute... and I am a big fan of him since I have seen the show. In conclusion, I think the show is very good. I will give it a 9 in a scale from 1 to 10.

Christina Applegate returns to television since the end of her old show, Married With Children. What's surprising is how she plays someone who is somewhat serious instead of the incredibly stupid and, yes, sexy Kelly Bundy. Just shows how much talent she has. Anyway, I wouldn't say this is the best series NBC turned out, that probably being Seinfeld, but certainly not the worst, that being Jenny as far as I'm concerned. It's a basic comedy series like many of the others but proves itself to be enjoyable.

I was a big fan of "Jesse" from the first episode I watched. That, however, was in season one. This season those with nothing better to do decided to "fix it," even though it wasn't broken. The new season opener has dropped her Dad and two brothers from the cast (no explanation) and added two co-workers at her new job. In short, the season opener was lame the second episode even worse. I will watch a third time, but if the show doesn't improve, I'm out of here.

Nice to see Christina Applegate finally get a starring role on TV.

I think this is a very mature role for her as a single mom with the prescription quirky family (who doesn't have one?).

But after the gloriously depressing Mafia! this is a gem. Fast punchy dialogue, yet there's still time for a little bit of romance with the new neighbour.

I've only just started to watch it here in the UK (CH4, mornings July 2001) so it's still early days, really.

Liked the episode about their "First Date" and the incident with the candy - classic "if it can go wrong, it will".

Well done, Christina for shaking off the Kelly Bundy image of being a dullard.

Go-o-o Jesse!
