Ed tv comedy series review

Ed Stevens, a lawyer in New York City firm, after finding his wife in bed with mailman decides to change his lie. He moves back to his hometown - Stuckeyville - and opens his own legal practice in bowling alley that he bought.



Since the beginning this show reminded me few others (f.e. Northern Exposure or Doc Martin with specialist moving to small town where people have different point of view to life), but I was really enjoying watching how he handles sometimes really strange cases and how he moves back to his childhood times.

Unfortunately with time the creators have apparently run out of ideas for interesting cases and Ed’s work was used only to fill up the gaps between plots with kids in high school, his own problems with Carol or Mike’s rather uninteresting marriage stories. The last season in which Ed and Carol are together was pushed waaaaaaay too far into romantic field that sometimes it was really depressing (they will be together, they won’t, they will, they won’t, they will marry, they won’t, etc).

I loved the idea, I loved the characters, even the cast, but the series was really uneven - some episodes were great and few next were really crappy and full of clichés from romantic comedies or "crazy high school C-class movies".

Ed was a really good show and if the creators would cut the complete-waste-of-time parts it would even be great. But they didn’t, so for me it’s only a very good show.
