'Til Death



This is a first of a series of posts which i have planned. These talk about TV shows which i have watched and loved! Shows which i think we should all watch. I will cover most Genre's except for Reality Shows!

'Til Death is filmed in front of a Studio audience! are the words after the opening credits! Like most shows, there is a small scene prior to the credits that lays premise to the episode. With an average running time of 21mins, its perfect for a quick laugh!

The show stars Brad Garrett from "Everybody Loves Raymond". He's the brother. An extremely tall fellow with a deep voice. He is perfect for comedy! He stars in this comedy as Eddie Stark,a History Teacher who has been married for umpteen number of years. His wife, Joy, is played superbly by Joely Fisher (Zoey Busiek:Wild Card). They play this bickering husband and wife, each trying to outwit the other in different situations. They live in suburban Philadelphia and the show starts with the moving in of their new neighbours who are newlyweds. The newlyweds are played by Eddie Kaye Thomas (American Pie) and Kat Foster (Super hot, Not a show) ;) As usual a funny name had to be thrown in, so the newly weds are Jeff and Steph Woodcock! :)

The thing I love about the show is that there is always a new situation and while not all episodes draw laughter, the least it does is bring a smile to my face. Eddie is constantly trying to prove he is right and joy is wrong. He is so sure of himself that when he goofs up its hilarious. He shares all his marital advice with Jeff which is sometimes fruitful but mostly a laugh riot in the making! Jeff who is the assistant headmaster at Eddie's school is quirky and funny in most scenes. He and eddie share great chemistry on screen. Heck pretty much everyone works well with the other. The arguments, the physical comedy, its all tastefully done and leaves you feeling good.

In the first season, I was extremely pleased with one particular episode. I would love to kill the suspense for you but choose not to for the pure joy of it. I was so happy when i saw that episode. It's the small things that matter and that's quite clear. The surprise of that episode just reminded me of good times! :)

I, am in the course of watching the second season ever so slowly and would be more than happy to share this joy if so requested. You know what i mean! ;P

'Til next time

Laugh away!
