This is one of those shows I've never actually seen, but I've heard a fair amount about it through "nerd osmosis". Especially recently with the tweet controversy.
I didn't realise it launched so many stars! I might have to go digging around the online services and see if I can find the early seasons. I did catch shows like 8 Simple Rules, but I never really got into family sitcoms.
Great post mate, really enjoyed reading it.
I used to watch it regularly back in the day, and this latest season really captured the spirit of the original.
Also George Clooney was a series regular at one point.
