Brooklyn Bridge

This is a great television show that can teach you a lot of lessons.Too bad it is not on television anymore,not even on reruns.I use to watch in Bravo.I think Mr.Grier and Grandma were the best characters.Usually,you don't get that many television shows these days that are so entertaining.A television show doesn't have to be laugh-out-loud funny,though it doesn't have to be a crappy police drama either.If this show is on video,I am buying it.

This show was absolutely brilliant. I first saw it when they played it on bravo a few years back. My Mum and I would sit and watch it together. I was 13 or 14, and I remember really enjoying it. I really wish they would bring it out on DVD! I cant believe it only lasted two seasons. Every episode I enjoyed and loved. It was so very well written. I truly loved the different characters! They were so real and you could totally connect with them. They encountered real life problems and when the show ended you felt you learned something too. I think the show really gave a true color of how life was back in those days. I certainly hope they bring it out on DVD! PLEASE BRING IT OUT ON DVD!! -Fiona

Kind of a "Jewish Wonder Years". I didn't catch Brooklyn Bridge during its initial run on CBS; probably a good thing, since it was cancelled. Bravo to the BRAVO network for picking it up! It only took one episodes for me to become hooked. I've never lived in NY, only visited- and Brooklyn has got to be the most colorful city in the whole US. Brooklyn Bridge represents REAL people with REAL feelings in REAL life. It's fast-moving and the writing is authentic. Love it!

I was very sad when Brooklyn Bridge was discontinued. It was a funny and charming and gentle portrayal of a Jewish family living in Brooklyn about half a century ago. I was among the lucky ones who discovered this program while it was being aired, and therefore had the opportunity to see television at its greatest.

Goldberg's "Brooklyn Bridge" is one of the best television series ever made. But viewers ignored it, as did so-called watchdogs who whine about there not being high-quality programs for families. The cast, led by Gerard as the oldest son, was excellent. The stories about growing up and trying to get along with an extended family were down-to-earth and sometimes poignant. If it comes back to cable, watch it. Every episode was solid, with most rising to a level untouched by TV. "Brooklyn Bridge" should be considered classic television.
