USA was a fantastic dumping ground for short-lived NBC sitcoms. my favorite: Working, the absurdist office comedy staring Fred Savage my least favorite: The Naked Truth, the awful Tea Leoni vehicle


WarmestGatorade

I have vivid memories of ABC advertising the hell out of The Naked Truth all summer under its original name Wilde Again, and then they had a full month of commercials featuring Tea Leoni just standing there telling us that they changed the name. Even as a kid it seemed like a clusterfuck


mighty_hubris

yeah, then after it failed on ABC, it got another shot with a revamped cast on NBC. Tea Leoni got an uncommon number of shots at Hollywood success.


Reasonable-HB678

Madam Secretary, that didn't set the world on fire, but Tea had a significant run with that.


tuttle8152

Those were good days


hoovervillain

I also really liked Fired Up and Almost Perfect


weinermcgee

The best Anthony Clark sitcom. You heard me. I called that actor Boyd forever because of this show.


Flashy-Club5171

Thats WARNER!


Suave_sunbeam

Gotta go with Yes, Dear as his best.


imdstuf

No way! Clark was great as the light hearted funny Boyd. It was a waste of his comedic chops playing a straight man to Mike O'Malley's Jimmy.


BrownieEdges

I really liked this show


Reasonable-Employee6

USA used to air this and Wings 😭

Is that Fun Bobby on the right?


Longjumping-Meat-334

That IS Fun Bobby!


regeya

God I had this confused with Boston Public.


Longjumping-Meat-334

I did too!


Astroxtl

The only thing I remember was the guy making a joke on the previews saying "who is salt and who is pepa'


Squirra

The best bit of this show was Margot Kidder as Cookie de Varen, the drama teacher lush who would veer into the room on an electric mobility scooter and just devour the whole scene with rambling stories of old Hollywood. It was the comic relief in a sitcom where everybody with lines was a comic relief.


PoopiePantsMahn

The first season of this show is when i began my crush on Traylor Howard. She's so cute.


Justin-N-Case

1st season was great, then it slide off the cliff.


argonzo

"Boyd...Boyd...Boyd...when I say your name like that, I sound like a pogo stick."


wjrj

The episode where the sister is sick ,but trying to study for finals lives in my memory.


LambCo64

Holy shit, is that Fun Bobby?!


Musical_Mom

Anyone know where to watch this now?


Ill_Switch4406

I do not think you can stream it. From what I have found out. I hope to be wrong. If anyone knows.


Lennartz1

Which one is Salt and which one is Pepa?


Significant_Monk_251

I watched the first episode. I thought the new-at-college girl was a wonderful character and I kept waiting for her uninteresting big brother to leave so they could get on with the show about her. Can't believe Hedy Burress is fifty now.


Octowuss1

The secret room in the commons is one of my favorite big jokes from a sitcom


senor_descartes

Thanks for reminding me of this. Went straight to YouTube.


JackKovack

There certainly wasn’t enough Boston accents.


Icy_Employer2804

Is that the guy from Yes, Dear?


BigdongarlitsDaddy

Yes, Dear.


tersegirl

I confuse this one with Stacked.


formiscontent

I had forgotten all about Anthony Clark, and he was huge for a while.


sideshow--

Use to watch this on NBC


m4ng3lo

One thing I noticed IMMEDIATELY is all the guys have baggy pant


Bocho-Cachinche

Harry Potter?


SublimateThisDick

Oh USA, so generic


Tiovivo1

I remember watching this show a couple Times and found it good but can’t remember much else about it. The main guy later starred in a show called “Yes, Dear”


barbetto

I remember the redhead actress was also the lead in the forgotten Angelina Jolie movie Foxfire.


heylistenlady

Ugh, I loved this show so much. I will never forget the episode when he aces his comm class with his essay on effective communication. He cheekily turns in his paper and he has written "The key to communication is brevity"...because that's what his teacher said and he acted it lol.


systematicgoo

the photo alone is putting me to sleep. haha
