Dear John

For years, I thought this she show was an original and it was just "Okay" to me as a teenager growing up in the 80s and 90s. But I am now MUCH older and married to a Brit! Why's that so significant? Well we were just running down a list of shows we grew up watching both here in the US and in the UK. And guess what I discovered? The show is a complete KNOCK OFF! The British version is ALSO called "Dear John" and starts the same way! There's even an episode where an entire SCENE was copied. 😂 The British show ran from 1985-1986 and the US version in 1988. I feel so cheated! 😂 Either way, check them both out and decide for yourself.

My buddy Chris likes the shows on channel 6 so this has got to be one of them. Well After Wendy leaves John he joins the 1-2-1 club. John has problems so it is up to Kirk to help him. Well John is the smartest in the 1-2-1 club. Ralph is the dumbest. Louise thinks Kirk is bad at giving advice.

This show is one of the most underrated tv shows of all time! This tv show does not get the credit or recognition it should get. Judd hurst is phenomenal in this series, as well as ALL the other cast members. It's a real shame you can't find DVD's or reruns of this show. I would gladly watch every episode all day everyday if I could! Please make reruns or DVD's for this show! (YES DVD's) lol. I don't know who, as far as right now, had the rights to this series. But, they for sure need to make it available for purchase or even throw it on one of the free apps where you can watch older tv shows! Please, let's make this happen!

Dry and listless. Cliche and morose. Obnoxious casting. These are the type of people who hold up the line because they want to complain at the deli counter. No wonder his wife left him.

I loved this show from the moment I saw it. It was about a man who's wifes leaves him and attends a support group. The show was great until cast members left. From there on the show lost its humor.
