    not too bad for WB

    This shows pretty funny. The celebs brothers are funny as well. Its good for a laugh if you can't watch anything better. Its a good concept. It almost makes you think celebs lives were as fun and interesting as this.

    Not that bad.

    This show gets way too much flak. Sure, it is without a doubt inferior to sitcoms such as Friends, Seinfeld, and Drew Carey (to name a few), but with those shows in reruns (or finished) during the summer, having this show kept TV alive.

    The concept alone made this show decent. While the bulk of people dislike the constant name-droppings and the appearances of Stallone, Swayze, and Travolta (that's Frank, Don, and Joey), I thought that was rather funny.

    The acting wasn't anything special, with some exceptions. Harry Hamlin, an established dramatic actor, surprisingly comes off very funny. And Anne Haney's grandmother character was always around to be the wisecracker (for season 1; I was disappointed they didn't bring her back for season 2). Then, of course, there's the beautiful Marnette Patterson, whose air-headed daughter character was actually quite charming (just don't look for her to be on Dawson's Creek anytime soon - not that that's a bad thing).

    I didn't catch every episode, but I wish I had.
    f.o.t.d

    ... may not be the best comedy ever made ...

    while Movie Stars may not be the best comedy show ever made it does deserve to be given a chance to find its feet. Movie Stars has got to be one of the best new comedys I've seen in the last year and I would give it a solid 8 out of 10 thats only because its a bit dated by the time its aired here in NZ.

    Another comedy from the W.B.

    Like Unhappily Ever After, Movie Stars has only one good reason to watch......the supporting female character! Like Nicki Cox, Marnette Patterson is the only reason to keep watching.

    A thirty minute comedy that's twenty seconds funny, Movie Stars tries too hard to be a hit. Marnette Patterson plays the role of the shows "Eye candy." Without her, the series wouldn't have made it past its pilot episode.

    I give 3 out of 10 stars, giving all 3 stars to Marnette Patterson.

    a great show, canceled unjustly.

    I wish i could find this show somewhere, because I distinctly remember looking forward to watching it every single time it was on! that has to mean something. If anyone knows where i can watch it, please let me know. thanks!

    I was only around 12 when this was on, but I remember that I loved it. It took me forever just to find out the name of the show, because I had forgotten.

    There is such little information about this out there, and there should be. I do love harry hamlin in this, i think he's great as a comedic actor.
