Still Standing

[talien]

Anyone know anything about this TV show?

From Entertainment Weekly:

(CBS) 8-8:30 PM Premieres Sept. 20

Entering its third season, the blue-collar sitcom will have Judy (Jami Gertz) and Bill (Mark Addy) tackling their kids' ''weightier and meatier'' issues, says exec producer Joey Gutierrez, like teen depression and...magical role-playing games. To keep things wacky, the Millers get new neighbors, a lesbian couple. ''Judy is trying to be politically correct, and that always comes out awkward,'' says Gutierrez. ''She keeps telling them that she sees them as 'heroes.'''

Speaking of heroic, in an attempt to lure folks from the competition, ''Fear Factor,'' exec producer Diane Burroughs offers this plug: ''If [you] want to see a show where people aren't gagging and close to vomiting, watch 'Still Standing.'''

"Magical role-playing games"?

At first, I didn't like it, but it's allright.

Mark Addy does a terribly bad american accent.

I enjoy it, when I catch it on TV. The son of the show, Brian, is a very geeky guy - likely he's RPG'ing. The funny thing is, the way they portray him is that he's also likely to be the only one out of the Miller household who will be making Bill Gates-style earnings when he gets out of college.

He's also the guy that tried for the football team and made the cut, but enjoy cheerleading more.

Or the main attraction at La Cage Aux Folle.

Well, duh. Cheerleading looks like fun. American Rugby not so much.

I love this show. 'Nuff said.

 

[Crothian]

It has its moments, I'll catch it if there's nothing better on or going on

 

[Ranger REG]

It's got Jami Gertz!

Yeah. And I remembered her from her first short-lived TV series, Square Pegs.

Damn, I'm old.

Don't forget Sarah Jessica Parker was the star of that one.
