Who's the Boss? Audience Reviews

Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict
Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
Sammy-Jo Cervantes There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
TamPalm I recently re-discovered this show in syndication on Hallmark. I've been DVR'ing it ever since. Just a quality show all the way around. Whne I see it now, I'm in awe of how well-done it is, how great the acting and writing and execution.Tony Danza carries this show, he was BORN for this role. His supporting cast is right on the money too. Everyone pulls the appropriate amount of weight. They are the perfect accompaniment to the superb writing that made the show so appealing for almost a decade. Only great writing could pull off the kind of anticipation of a romance between Tony and Angela that lasted for upwards SEVEN years. That's talented writing for sure! This show embodies the heyday of the sitcom. Before reality TV, there was the sitcom, the 30 minute show with the laugh track and quickly-developed plot and resolution. And for some reason back in the 80's, there seemed to be more talent for effectively executing the sitcom. Now, in the age of oversexualization and violence and edginess, it brings a smile to look back and remember when something could be clean and quality at the same time. The good ol' days I guess they're called now. sigh
swopoh 'who's the boss' is currently showing in singapore's channel I at 6pm on weekdays. it bring back memories of the 80's. the lifestyle then wasn't that much different from now. i like the cast. they all acted very well.
nfuller I admit to being a hopeless Anglophile. I love the British Antiques Roadshow MUCH more than the American version. I like most Britcoms better than most American sitcoms. (My favorite britcom is "May to December"). Still I think that "Who's The Boss" ranks with the BEST of the Britcoms. It can hold it's own against any of them!
Buffy the Vampire Slayer This is the only sitcom that a person can watch for 7 years and not get bored! This show is wonderful for kids and teens to watch and grow up with the characters, I personally rate this show PG (MPAA) for mild language and some not-graphic sex-related dialogue.******************SPOILERS***************The writing is excellent and the ideas are great, the story is easy to follow and simple. The acting is WONDERFUL, I mean look at Alyssa Mylano, while Sam, her character, changed from a tomboy to an unpopular teen to a mature MARRIED woman, she was able to act all 3 of the "Sams", and Danny Pintauro's character, Jonathan, changed from the smart good boy to a teen that can't stop thinking about girls, Tony Danza and Judith Light, well, they act excellently, and the emotional tension between Tony and Angela was very well acted, and Mona is always a treat!Enjoyment: 5/5 Violence: 0/5 Family Viewing: 5/5Rating: 5/5
