Back to You

I was looking forward to seeing this show, but I wasn't sure when it was coming on. Luckily, I happened to scroll by it just as it was starting up. It has a great cast, a good premise, but the writing fails to impress. Many of the jokes are obvious one-liners that aren't even funny. Kelsey Grammar can't even save any of the lines. There is no originality, no cleverness; I could have written this show. The only good parts are when it is dramatic; the "humor" makes my head hurt. I need a good, original sitcom besides the shows that I watch on NBC, and this doesn't do the trick. It should be canceled soon. However, I'm giving it a 5 because the cast could possibly be able to save it.

"BACK TO YOU," in my opinion, is an absolute FOX classic! I haven't seen every episode, but I still enjoyed it. It's hard to say which episode was my favorite. However, I think it was always funny when a mishap occurred. I always laughed at that. Also, of all the episodes I've seen, my favorite would probably be the two-part one where Gracie (Lily Jackson) finds out a little secret. When I think about it, I remember the opening sequence and theme song vaguely. Despite the fact that it was a short-lived series, it was nice that all the main characters stayed with the show throughout its entire run. It seems that no one stays with a show throughout its entire run. Everyone always gave a good performance, the production design was spectacular, the costumes were well-designed, and the writing was always very strong. In conclusion, I hope some network brings it back on the air for fans of the show to see.

I have seen several episodes of Back to You and I feel that its the best sitcom about broadcast news since Newsradio. The shows are well-written and the cast is a mixture of veterans and young actors. Kelsey Grammar doesn't seem to be typecast as Frasier Crane, playing co-anchor Chuck Darling, though he has a little of Dr. Crane's pomposity in his new role. Patricia Heaton is outstanding as Kelly Carr. Fred Williard adds a veteran presence to the show, Ayda Field brings beauty as meteorologist Montana, Josh Gad as the young news director and Ty Burrell as Gary round out the news crew. Let's not forget Laura Marano, fresh off Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader as Kelly's daughter, Gracie who plays the role very well.

My only complaint about the show is the constant fighting between Chuck and Kelly. I feel that it should be more of an ensemble comedy and less of a verbal battle between the two sitcoms veterans.

In an era of boring one-camera comedies, Back to You has revitalized the traditional sitcom genre.

Of all the new fall shows that have came out this new one on FOX Wednesday nights called "Back to You" has to be the best! I love the way it's done from the way it's shot with the camera switching scene to scene and the comedy with the funny and witty lines plus to top it off the main two characters are full of tension and have good sexy chemistry with one another. The main reason it seems a success is the acting of TV star veterans Kelsey Grammar and Patricia Heaton. Grammar plays cocky and confident newsman Chuck Darling who's moved back to Pittsburgh, PA to take back his old job at the station after his attempt at news in Los Angeles was a failure, upon return he meets his old partner and old flame the tough as nails and bossy anchor of a lady Kelly Carr(Heaton). The two have a past connection it will be interesting to see if the tension the two have rolls over to love, because they are always at each others throats yet love is still buried deep down. The performances from Kelsey and Patricia are top notch as always they do excellent work both are such experienced TV veterans. Also the cast has some good supporting help from Fred Willard who is funny and very traditional as the stations sportscaster, and don't forget Ayda Field as the hot and sexy weather reporter she can tell me the temperatures and forecast anytime! Really one of the better new series that looks promising and it's witty and funny and has great acting from two experienced TV veterans so let this sitcom entertain and come back to you!

I love this show!! It's so funny, and so unlike all the other shows that are on TV right now. The two lead actors (Kelsey Grammar and Patricia Heaton) are so good together, it's the perfect pairing. They are just SO funny. Every time I watch an episode, I end up laughing my head off. Everything is so perfect, and they have such great interactions. The supporting characters are great, too. It's so refreshing to see a show on anymore that's actually funny. Whenever I think of the show (usually when I'm sitting at my desk in school) I just burst out laughing, which results in a lot of weird looks. There's such great chemistry, it's really a near perfect show.
