Cast

In this version, Jasmine was not German.

Production

The series was shot in the conventional sitcom format, in front of a studio audience.[3] The show did not obtain a sizable audience, being forced to compete with ABC's Top 20 hit Family Matters and was cancelled after two seasons.[4]

Insiders say that production of the series ended on November 16, 1990, after a dispute between Goldberg and the show's co-executive producer, Thad Mumford.[5] Executive producer Kenneth Kaufman was told that Goldberg called CBS president Jeff Sagansky in late November to say that she was quitting the show.[4] With no time to recast Goldberg's role, CBS ended the series and pulled the remaining episodes from the broadcast schedule.[4]

Episodes

Fifteen episodes were produced, and are registered with the United States Copyright Office.[6]

Reception

Ken Tucker of Entertainment Weekly rated the series a C, saying that "rarely has a bad sitcom been better acted". Despite being impressed with the acting from Stapleton and Little, Tucker was disappointed that the producers did not hire better writers, to match the quality of the movie on which the series is based.[3] Howard Rosenberg of the Los Angeles Times said the show's premiere "doesn't click tonight, it yields no laughs".[2] However, John J. O'Connor of The New York Times remarks that "the stars seem to be enjoying themselves immensely", and compliments the director of the pilot noting, "Paul Bogart, a sitcom miracle worker, directs the first episode with enough aplomb to qualify himself as a master illusionist".[1]
