Murphy Brown returns

Postby CK » Wed Jun 30, 2010 8:41 am

...to 7 Two, most weeknights at 7pm. One of the more astute US comedies of the 80's to 90's, IMHO. Reading this was great news for a fan that watched them all the first time and loved them.

Have to check it out again.

Now if they'd just bring back The Larry Sanders Show...

Hey Now, there's an idea :)

Great show also, pity it didn't get the reception it deserved here.

7TWO have also bought the rights to It's a Knockout - so looks like another 80's classic will be making a return to our screens soon.

Love the episode of Seinfeld where Elaine is writing an episode of Murphy Brown and Kramer gets an acting gig on there.

Piece of useless trivia - both Night Court and Murphy Brown share the distinction of having actors win multiple Emmys for their role, and then withdraw* themselves from nomination in future years (John Larroquette as Dan Fielding, winning Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy series from 1985 to 1988, with Candice Bergen winning Outstanding Lead Actress - Comedy Series from 1989, 90, 92, 94 and 95)

It just finished a run on the Comedy Channel a couple of months ago.
Brilliant show. A great look at the pomposity of American celebrity.
If one person does it, it's insanity. If millions do it, it's religion.
