What I Say |
| Is there any other place for this than CBS Monday? Will the fourth cute (I use that term lightly) family in a row be too much in one sitting? |
My Analysis & Prediction |
| Full season, but not a huge hit. It's got one of the best lead-ins in the game: right after ...Raymond. CBS moved Becker for this. Jami Gertz as a mom makes me feel realllly old, but she's got some untapped comic potential. I'll peg this as this year's Yes, Dear -- it won't do great, but it won't lose more than 30% of ...Raymond's aud. |
What They Say |

| STILL STANDING is a comedy about a blue-collar Chicago couple working to raise their three children responsibly and not lose sight of their own youthfulness. After 15 years of marriage, high-school sweethearts Bill (Mark Addy) and Judy Miller (Jami Gertz) still make each other laugh, and try to keep their marriage intact, even when their family pulls them in different directions. Judy's unmarried sister, Linda (Jennifer Irwin), butts heads with Bill, and the Millers' precocious teenage daughter, Lauren (Renee Olstead), thinks her parents are uncool. Meanwhile, their uptight, studious son, Brian (Taylor Ball), is just discovering girls, and their youngest child, Tina (Soliel Borda), would prefer to run around naked. Since Bill has a far more immature approach to marriage and raising children than Judy does, they work at striking a balance and remembering why they love each other, quirks and all.
