Chano, it was those points where he would get so riled up that he'd be talking so fast to the point where you just couldn't detect the precise moment when English would turn to Spanish.Harris, he was always the stylish one looking as if he stepped out of the pages of GQ. Wojo, because he was so high strung and trying to be by-the-book. Many of Fish's lines are simply inspired classics. Fish was so funny because he was so cynical. With Barney, it had to be that look on his face whenever he heard or saw something strange something similar to Gen.Halftrack's famous "Now what" look in the comic strip"Beetle Bailey". As for the main characters, there was always something about each one that made them so funny. The proof was in the writing, the stories, and the characters especially those who were brought in to the squad room. For one thing, it proved that you didn't need to throw pies to be funny. This has to be one of television's finest sitcoms ever. This is one show I wish had done a reunion movie. Dealt with some real issues that had not been dealt with before in sitcom (When Chano had to come to terms with shooting someone). I never thought Abe Vigoda was all that good. It came close with the episode about the guy who thought he was a werewolf, but overall this was a great show that never got the respect it deserved. ![]() This show is one of my top three shows of all time. I hate this show!!! It is just about the stupidest thing to happen to telelvision since ever. Never Jumped.vastly improved as it went on.especially after Fish left the show.also great because it was not filmed in front of a 'live' audience. Much like Seinfield except the last show was good.Īlmost, but not quite: the joke was that Barney explains to him that he can't stay for frivolous reasons like if he wanted to marry a girl, to which he responds, chuckling "Oh, I am not *freevolous*!" (Wojo puts his arm around him saying "of course you're not!") "I am *homoseexual*!" (Wojo removes arm, looks stunned). The writers had a hard time coming up with fresh material and so the show ended in it's prime. From the robbery of the sperm bank, to Wowjohowitz (or however you spell it) befriending a Eastern Europian pianist who turned out to be homosexual (Woho explains that he can't seek asylim for frivilous reasons, like getting married the pianist explians, in very bad english, that he is not married, he's homosexual) the satire is there. This show always had the satire with just the right about of vermouth. ![]() Notice that afterwards they rarely mentioned the bad coffee. ![]() Jack Soo? They "broke the fourth wall" (as they say in theater) and talked directly to the audience in a most touching way. Never jumped, but actually got better when Fish left.Īnyone remember the tribute episode they did in honor of (Great moment in TV history: after being informed that the brownies he ate were actually evidence in a drug case, Fish laments "This is the best I've felt in 20 years, and it's illegal!") PLEASE NOTE: Generation Bashing will NOT be tolerated.Abe Vigoda, Abe Vigoda, Abe Vigoda.Fish! Vigoda.Ī toss-up between Abe Vigoda leaving and Jack Soo's death, actually.
