Voilà !

In England this show came after Cheers, Friends and Everyone Loves Raymond which are very difficult acts to follow But it did it with a resounding 10 out of 10. The 5 main character I can't fault their performances were so good. The comedy was excellent and each character had their different strengths though I suspect that Jack Gallow was the fatherhead figure. I also found that the people who made guest appearances or new characters were of top quality. However the final episode was an absolute classic and the tears on the faces I suspect were real because the series and there working together was coming to an end. Very sadly the end of era that has been replaced in the UK by repeats of Everyone Loves Raymond which doesn't seem so funny after Shoot me. I must say that the ending of Shoot me was so superior to the end of Diane Chambers leaving Cheers which was abysmal. Lets hope these people aren't consigned to oblivion after the end of the series like so many people of successful sitcoms seem to be.

When I first watched this show, I must admit, it did not much appeal to me. But once the vibrant characters are etched in your mind, Just Shoot Me is hilarious, unmissable viewing. Not since Newsradio has a sitcom been so witty, and at the same time so outrageous in it's comedy style as Just Shoot Me. A highlight episode (the one that really won me over) features Mark Hammil, who, surprisingly becomes very enthusiastic to recieve the friendship of Finch, Blush magazine's Star Wars geek. Overall, the show is highly recommended!

David Spade is great in this hilarious, yet underrated sitcom set in a New York about the staff of Blush, a fashion magazine in the tradition of REDBOOK. The show aired from 1997 to 2003 and while the later episodes were the better ones, the first season (just released to DVD along with the second season) contains some of the best episodes, including my personal favorite episode, titled "In Your Dreams".

Despite the fact that the show never really had one main character, the stand out for me as always been David Spade. I've always been a big fan of David Spade and this show was perfect for him. As the assistant to Jack Gallo (the always wonderful George Segal), David Spade provided the show with much needed sarcasm and wise-cracking like only he can. This is especially evident in the first season and the second season.

Though the show was canceled last year, it remains in syndication and still remains one of the best sitcoms ever. My rating: 10/10

This is a fantastic show which always makes me laugh and giggle. Probably the best comedy ensemble on TV, and the humor is mostly aimed at adults. Blush, as a setting for the hijinx, is perfect and the office setting seems organic and realistic, as opposed to lumps of furniture. Contrast this with Suddenly Susan, where the office setting is ridiculous because noone seems to belong there. On Just Shoot Me, the characters are fleshed out from the beginning and their motives, personal and professional, are clear. Maya and Jack Gallo, the irrepressible Dennis Finch, Elliot and Nina all supply laughs constantly. There's lots of practical jokes and wicked schemes that sometimes (but not always) backfire. Maya is the most earnest (and an intellectual feminist), but she's also vulnerable and compassionate. She is the heart and soul of Blush, but also the butt of good-natured jokes. The other four (especially Dennis) are more self-centered and mischievous. All in all, this is a wonderful show that resonates, because it echoes (in an exaggerated way) the chemistry of co-workers in real life. In this respect, it resembles Taxi, another great show that relied on well-defined characters to make comical situations seem more natural.

Are you people insane? Have you lost your mind? Let me understand this: Scrubs has a score of 8.3, but Just shoot me is 6.8?! In what universe? The Internet must be broken.

Just shoot me has incredibly sharp comedic acting, very clever dialogue, and is edgy ahead of its time.

Where's the love, people?
