Yes, Dear

I just started watching reruns of this show, I never watched it while it was on and to be honest, i don't even remember when or what channel it was on.

I stumbled onto it about 2 years ago and i absolutely love it. Anthony Clark is hilarious as Greg Warner and i always thought his stand-up was really funny. The rest of the cast is spot-on and Jiummys friend Billy is awesome in the episodes hes in.

I personally don't understand how people didn't like it, the writing was really funny. It has risen to one of my top 5 favorite sitcoms of all time.

This sitcom is so great; Anthony Clark's character, Greg Warner, has an amusing sardonic hilarity about him. Greg's wife, Kim (Jean Louisa Kelly) is awfully active and has a "I'm sweet, but don't mess with me" manner about her that makes her family all the more to love. Kim's sister, Christine (Liza Snyder) and her husband Jimmy (Mike O'Malley) have such a happy-go-lucky oar around them that just adds to the humor of most of the time, very real state of affairs that go on around the Warner house-hold.The children on the show also add to the comedy that is in fact, Yes, Dear; they often mirror that of what they see being done by their parents and always ends with great laughs. I don't remember when or how I found this show, but I'm really happy I did. The show has a blend of adult humor and safe humor that would satisfy almost anyone. The show airs on Wednesdays on 9:30 on CBS. Reruns of the show are on Monday through Friday on TBS, channel 247 for satellite viewers, at 4:30 and then a following episode after that. They also show some on UPN 65 at 9:30 and then one following at 10. I recommend this show for anyone to watch.

This is a great show! I have been catching up on the reruns I have missed and they were great! I do not watch much television but I started watching this show like last year, but did not really have the time to keep up with it. The characters in this show are so funny and the episodes are so funny. I don't know if I have mention spoilers for a show, but just is case, here are some spoilers. This show has changed which makes it more interesting. For instance, in the beginning, Jimmy was unemployed. That was how they moved into Kristine's sister, Kim's home, in their guest house. Later in the show, Greg gets Jimmy a job as a security guard at his place. Christina goes for her college degree, and I believe she graduates. Later in the show, she enters the work force again after being home with her children. She also gets a job at Gregs place. I guess that is a little unrealistic but there are some funny scenarios with them working at the same place. Kimmy, a stay at home mom, who was a very uptight overprotective mom in the beginning, lightens up and becomes more laid back. Although it was comical to see Kristine and Kimmy's different parenting styles, it was interesting to see how Kristine rubbed off on her. Although this may not be the most realistic show, it does show real problems such as personality conflicts, in a humorous way! Spoiler: I love the episode where Kimmy, (Jean Loise Kelly) learns to be more fun! She is such a good singer and she is so pretty! Gregs boss is so goofy and funny! This is definitely a 10 out of 10!

This show succeeds at what it attempts: mindless comedy. Perhaps if you are "educated" you consider yourself above the humour, but I enjoy watching it. I can think of worse ways to spend half an hour. The premise is unlikely but entertaining. It's certainly better than those "reality" shows that are reproducing madly! Consider me a fan.

I honestly can't figure out why the critics are not only disparaging of this show, but actually aggressively hostile toward it. I would be the last person to claim "Yes, Dear" is a classic of television comedy, but it is a consistently funny show, with a very simple, archetypal conflict. I get regular laughs from "Yes, Dear," regularly trashed by critics, while I've never laughed a single time at "Everybody Loves Raymond," which critics slavishly promote. YD is about a pair of couples, two sisters and their husbands, who live together in Los Angeles. The older sister and her husband are lazy, irresponsible slobs who live in the guest house of the younger sister and her husband, who are fastidious to the point of neurosis. Most of the comedy derives from this dichotomy. The husbands work for a movie studio (another source of laughs), and both couples have children. All three sets of grandparents are played by familiar comedic character actors and show up several times each season. Obviously, personal taste governs what one watches on television (something critics have generally forgotten), but if ever a show has gotten a raw deal from the critics, "Yes, Dear" is the one.
