Caroline in the City (TV Series) Caroline and the Proposal (1996) User Reviews

I do? I don't?

[studioAT · 6/10 · 13 October 2017]

Will Caroline accept Del's proposal? That's the big question posed in this episode of the under-appreciated sitcom.

What the writers have done so cleverly across this first series is little by little plant the idea that Richard could be the one who is really right for Caroline, and in this episode we see a little more of him pining for her.

I think on the whole this first series has been great, with this being another strong episode to prove the point.

A bonus prize

This episode's plot could've been like countless others where the main character (Caroline) is trying to decide whether to accept a marriage proposal (from Del) but instead we get a pleasant diversion when Richard "glass half empty" Karinsky has an encounter with a divorced employment counselor played spot on by Sharon Lawrence. Her over the top "I'm going to bed the next man I meet" attitude has her throwing herself at Richard. Caroline interrupts their liaison and this steers her into Del's waiting arms.
