It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Henry McNeeley (Neil Patrick Harris) is a germophobic neurotic. He's a romance novel editor and is put to work with blocked horror writer Ian Stark (Tony Shalhoub). Jake Donovan (Eddie McClintock) is Ian's idiot assistant as he puts on realistic death scenes to test out his writing. Maddie (Heather Dubrow) is the bartender at Ian's favorite club. Tess Farraday (Dorie Barton) is Henry's girlfriend.This is an odd mix of traditional sitcom with a little bit of weird darkness. The opening song is strange for a sitcom. The laugh track is loud. These are great comic actors but it doesn't get that many big laughs. There are some good stuff here. I would like to love this more but I don't really love the characters.

This sitcom was by far the funniest to come out on TV in the last 10 years. Its dark humor it was brilliantly written and impeccably delivered by a wonderful cast.For all its virtues, the show did the one thing shows are not allowed to do these days: they dared to be different; they were original, and brilliant, and were not afraid to look at difficult subjects (including sexual fetishes, physical disabilities and, in general, the pain of being different.) That they were able to do so without taking themselves too seriously and remaining genuinely funny seems to have escaped audiences and NBC executives alike.I guess, funny or not, the show proved a little too grown up for mainstream audiences - those who prefer to sit down in front of the TV and disengage their brains. A show that makes you laugh and think at the same time cannot possibly be successful with those who cannot walk and chew gum at the same time...The show was funny without having to resort to slapstick and - more importantly - it was a very welcome contrast to the usually bland, politically correct, completely predictable comedy that is so prevalent these days. Too bad it became a victim of its own quality.

"Stark Raving Mad" was a very good show. It had a great cast (both Tony Shaloub and Neil Patrick Harris portrayed their characters perfectly), hilarious plots and writing, and (perhaps most important to NBC) it got good ratings, but NBC still cancelled it. It is a shame that they got rid of it. I think that it had already proved itself as a successful show (it didn't need time to "mature"). NBC could have brought it back. I just don't see why they got rid of this really great show.

I have never laughed so hard in my life. In Australia we were lucky enough to have every episode aired here.Why does it seem like television networks are scared of good sitcoms.Or are they afraid that they will not be able to keep up such a high standard of entertainment. Better to cancel a show than have it go from fantastic to flop! It's a damn shame that this show was canceled!
