Married People (1990–1991)
Remembering this show...
25 October 2005
This was actually quite a good show and I do recall it fairly well considering it was over 15 years ago now. Bess Armstrong was solid in her role as the Matriarch of this family. I do echo the previous poster's comments about Jay Thomas. Jay is a past Emmy award winner and a very fine comedic and dramatic actor. He would be considerably older now and likely enjoying a life of retirement in relative obscurity. I'd be interested if anyone has seen any recent work and perhaps they can wheel Jay out for a curtain call of sorts. One final swan song as it were before he rides out his final years. A tremendous actor he was. I'm not familiar with the other cast members as they were less well known. It just goes to show that sometimes a fine show will not get the run it deserves in order to develop a following. With the expanded television universe, at least some good shows like this are getting a shot on cable channels such as Fox, FX or the WB where they can take more time to develop a following. Married People - RIP.
