To this day, Ed is my favorite show. It is the perfect blend of a weekly story and a continuing drama. Each week Ed has a court case to deal with, meanwhile he has the bowling alley to run with Phil and Shirley to contend with. And he always has a new way to try and win Carol's heart. On top of all that, I love the relationship between Ed and his best friend Dr. Burton, who has his own family and a surly boss to deal with. It is exactly the right amount of funny without being silly (well, sometimes it's silly but that's OK) and it's just so brilliantly written. All the characters are so real, and having grown up in my own version of stuckeyville, I totally recognize the feel and attitude of a small town. The acting is first rate, especially Tom (I Am Canadian) Cavanaugh. I'm grateful at least that a show this good lasted more than one year, but I would have gladly watched it for ten. I still watch the whole series at least once a year, even though my copy is burned onto DVD from my HDD recorder, and some of the episodes are even captured from VHS. I would pay virtually any price for NBC and Worldwide Pants to finally get the show professionally released, even if just in standard definition. Unfortunately, all the music playing in the background at the bowling alley would need to be cleared and paid for. The producer's just can't justify the expense. Such a shame...
