Great show. Highly underrated. Joe in the coffin when Antonio comes up is right up there with the WKRP episode as far as amazing sitcom moments.

And I also loved Wings. Big Roy fan. That dude had the right vibe.

It was a great show. We were talking about 3rd Rock recently, which reminds me of Wings and News Radio. Back when network comedy was a real thing and funny.

Absolutely a fan. Crystal Bernard was one of my first crushes.

I think it really hit its stride the 1st season Alex was on - 1993-95 were just a murderer's row of classic episodes.
I know Joe is the straight man, but his comedic output is highly underrated.
Antonio - GOAT.
Perfect mix of comedy and feels.
The last 1.5 seasons had a weird change in tone and feel that really disappointed me, although still some gems in there.
It's in the Cheers universe, so all of the crossover episodes are great - particularly when Frasier comes to teach his seminar. (Fun fact - Kelsey Grammer is the only actor to ever win an Emmy for the same character on 3 different shows)
Amy Yasbeck was straight fire, but Crystal will always be my sneaky favorite in her little 90s jeans.
Some great recurring characters over the seasons (Louis, Carlton, etc.)
Enjoy the watch! I wish I could see it with fresh eyes.

I'm surprised she didn't go on to other things. Just kind of disappeared.

Yea Antonio aka Monk aka Abe Weissman is my favorite

hell yes. A young WG has mega fond memories of middle school summers sleeping in late, waking up around lunchtime, making myself a sandwich and chips, adn sitting down with USA and Wings to start the day.

Great show. And crystal Bernard was one of my first crushes too. Still watch it often as it comes on some channel I get.

The intro and opening credits are very pleasing

One of the best brother dynamics in TV history. I always loved watching Joe and Brian's relationship. Overshadowed by a lot of its contemporaries, but very funny and enjoyable in its own right.

Roy died a few years ago and Farrah Forke passed a few months ago.
Farrah Forke
Also, Carlton Blanchard was only on 3 episodes, but they're all classic.

Between the Wings re-runs, golden-era WWF, and nightly airings of MacGyver, USA Network was straight fire, for a time.

Was a staple of 90s USA network as I recall

I’ve seen every episode probably 50 times conservatively. That and Silk Stockings made up late nights in HS.
