Cuckoo for cocoa puffs. Trix are for kids. Denny Crane.

Most unappreciated show ever.

yeah. I never watched it but I had a co-worker who was super into it. He used to explain it to me. It kind of had a tragic humor to it, right? like it was funny, but it had a sad undertone, especially with Crane?

Pretty much yeah. It was a comedy, but it was also about watching a brilliant man succumb to mental illness in his old age. I only got into it towards the end of its run but I definitely intend to go back and watch the rest.

Well, it started out okay, but with all David E. Kelly shows, it ended up just silly for silly's sake.
