This was a terribly funny corruscating comedy centered upon a loathsome boss at work. The show was consistently surprising - fast-moving with real bite. I loved it - it's a shame it was taken off the air so soon. I'd love to see a DVD of the episodes.
Dabney Coleman can deliver terribly funny terribly unprofessional lines better than any actor I know - the striking thing is that they seem so natural to the character he plays. Joanna was a perfect foil.
The series was just perfect - but not promoted well enough before it was cancelled to build up a head of steam among the audience.
Come to think of it, they could just put the series on again today - Coleman is very much still around. It would be loved.
