Good Morning, Miami (2002–2004)
6/10
And in case you get canceled... good night

This took a decent enough premise for a sit-com and did... well, quite OK with it. It started out with too many regulars, though they cut the least interesting of them relatively fast, after almost immediately pushing them into the background. I doubt they were missed; they were entirely one-note, quirky caricatures, that I suppose sounded funny on paper. This got almost two full seasons, in spite of never really reaching greatness. With that said, there were many good jokes, and the main cast have nice comic timing. There are the usual crude ones, goofy ones, the occasional clever ones, etc. Dylan is cautiously underdeveloped, in order to keep her from being attractive to as much of the audience as possible. Williams does well enough at keeping her charming and sweet, if she does wind up giggling, smiling and such to the point of silliness. The material varies, but a lot of the "what goes on when the cameras are off" stuff isn't half bad. Zimmer is probably the best actor in this, and her performance as the snarky, cynical Penny is spot-on; she adds layers to the part, taking her beyond the usual superficial role(usually representing specific types) of this genre of TV show. Feuerstein is fine, he simply can't escape not having enough charisma to be the lead. There is mild language in this. I recommend this to any fan of those in it. 6/10
