"The Alan Brady Show" - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I'm sorry to say that I didn't enjoy this show.I guess that either the Alan Brady character wasn't meant to be spun-off or that the supporting cast wasn't strong enough.I think it was a mixture of both.I liked Tilly but the rest of the supporting cast was cruddy and nothing can match Rob,Sally and Buddy.What did you guys think?

I agree. You can read my thoughts on the Dick Van Dyke board.

Someone tell me what the heck this show is/is about! I've never heard of it!

it's a 22 minute (really 30 minutes, but a 30 minute show actully runs for 22 minutes, after the commercials

) computer animated show about Alan Brady (voiced by Carl Reiner, who also wrote and directed it) "browbeating" his writers into doing an anniversary edition of "The Alan Brady show". It's currently airing on TV LAND. (Dick van Dyke & Rose Marie only have cameos-small roles-though)

Oh, cool. So, what's wrong with it? Besides it being Computer Animated.

treky · 08-27-2003, 01:23 AM

that, I can't answer, as I haven't seen it.

The show didn't have a spark to it, IMO. I was a tad bit bored when viewing this sitcom/animated program.
