Evening Shade - Season One DVD Review - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

It’s time to kick back and relax in the shade, the Evening Shade, that is. The first season of the ‘90s sitcom starring Burt Reynolds and Marilu Henner as Wood and Ava Newton comes to DVD in a four-disc set from CBS DVD.

Wood is a former Pittsburgh Steeler that has decided to come back home to be a football coach for a real football team--the hometown high school football team. But life in Evening Shade is anything but normal, and a far cry from what he is used to, when he learns to deal with family and friends that have their fair share of problems. But through it all, in the end, the positive side of life in Arkansas would always be seen. The series was produced by Linda Bloodworth-Thomason and Harry Thomason, neither of whom strangers to sophisticated southern sitcoms, as both were concurrently producing the series Designing Women.

Do they keep Mimsie (MTM Enterprises) at the end? I know they have not been kind to old Paramount logos.
