Lisa-LAM

I thought this series was definitely one that stood out from the rest. For one thing, almost every actor in this series was great, and most have had notable performances in movies and made-for-tv movies, as well. I thought Billy (Andrew Shue), Jake (Grant Show) and Kyle (Rob Estes) were great as the good-looking, nice guys with bad luck in the female/relationship department. I thought they did a great job of trying to relate and live with the manipulative females that took constant advantage of them. Dr. Michael Mancini (Thomas Calabro) was definitely the comic relief in the series and really made the fans laugh with his constant crazy (and often illegal) antics. Jack Wagner (Dr. Peter Burns) joined the series toward the end and really drew some last-minute interest as a love interest with Heather Locklear before the series ended. This series had some great, strong female characters as well. Amanda (Heather Locklear) was amazing and gorgeous. Just when you thought she was really low, and you really wanted to hate her, a completely different side of her showed up that made the audience relate with her. I was really impressed with the enjoyable and striking Lisa Rinna (Taylor); and Courtney Thorne-Smith (Alison) was beautiful and likeable as the nice girl as she rallied against Amanda. Jo (Daphne Zuniga) had a really strong character who often was up against Amanda's bad side. Another favorite was definitely Sydney (Laura Leighton). She schemed and plotted and really kept our interest; providing some real laughs on the female side. Kristin Davis was good as Brooke, but I can't remember much about her storylines, right now. Josie Bissett (Michael's ex-wife Jane) wasn't given enough substance later on in the series, and her character just kind of went downhill. I have liked her work in other things, though. Lexi (Jamie Luner) was a very intriguing and versatile character for too short a time-frame. Two other notables were Sam (Brooke Langton) and Megan (Kelly Rutherford). Every week the plot's twists and the interesting, sometimes shocking, relationship turns (I would love to see an outline of who slept with who!) kept us glued to our seats - only to get up during the commercials. It is amazing to see the list of cast members and notice so many famous actors that have guest stared during the series. Like, Antonio Sabato, Jr. (one of my favorites!), Pricilla Presley, Alyssa Milano, Kristin Alfonso, Vanessa Williams, Linda Gray, Brian Bloom, Dan Cortese, Greg Evigan, Shirley Jones, Traci Lords, Chad Lowe, Patrick Muldoon, Parker Stevenson, Rena Sofer, Deborah Adair - are just to name a few of the famous faces. It will be great to have this very memorable series available in DVD format.

I also saw this on cable in 1983 and can't believe it is not currently available on DVD or video. It is a fun movie with alot of laughs, and at the same time a "heartwarming", feel-good movie. Very memorable from my teen years, but it is timeless in its comedy. Marc Singer plays the blind real-life Tom Sullivan. I remember one scene in particular that was hilarious: Tom (Marc Singer) was the most sober (and blind, too) of the group after they had been out all night drinking, he is behind the wheel and gets pulled over by a police officer. I have to see this movie again! What can we do to get it to be released on DVD/video???

I saw this on cable around 1982, and have fondly remembered it ever since. Very funny! My sister and I cracked up the whole time watching the average-Joe, Gary Busey, try to win the love of rich-girl, Annette O'Toole, and the crazy antics involving the butler. The butler (Tony Randall) was so funny in this movie! Unfortunately, it is not currently available on DVD/video. I sure hope it is re-released soon.
