Are there any fans of this show here? Not many people I know have even heard of it, but I like it a lot, especially the late Phil Hartman as egotistical news anchor Bill McNeal.

I'm a fan. I love the chemistry between Dick and Hartman. Some of the episodes are hilarious.

My favourite episodes are the fantasy ones set in outer space or on the Titanic. Classic.

Yeah, it was a terrific show. Who knows how it may have run its course were it not for Hartman's tragic murder? They did their best to hang on and retool it afterward, but it just wasn't gonna work without Bill McNeal. Not that NBC gave it the best support or time slots even when Hartman was still alive.

Yes! I loved this show when it was around. There are two celebrity deaths that really got to me. Chris Farley and Phil Hartman. So tragic and sad.
