    Very funny and clever sit-com that only lasted for one year.Anthony Clark was funny and convinced as the lead character. Hedy Burress is incredibly charming: her beautiness, sexiness, and talent are impossible to ignore. I'm a big fan of hers thanks of this show.The character of Leonard was an interesting addition to the show, he was very funny. The rest of the cast also delivered good performances.Nice cast.The writing was very clever and that's what made the show a delight to watch. I had the chance to watch this funny show on it's re-runs on Sony Entertainment T.v. Latin American way back in 2000 but quickly stopped re-running it.A future DVD release looks impossible but hey? we can dream about it.Watch it if you have the chance you won't regret, this was one of the only shows which all of it's dialogues are funny.

    Why do networks constantly formulate these amazingly funny shows and then take them away? With Boston Common, they it moved around all the time, often to the most Godawful time slots and didn't advertise what they were doing. I was so happy to find the reruns on USA. Of course, these were cancelled eventually, too. I don't see why they would set a show up to fail. That's what they did with Boston Common. No other show has made me laugh like this one did -- if one ever does again, you can be sure it will be cancelled as well. What's strange about Boston Common is that it's by the same people who put out Will and Grace. That show is a gigantic hit. The network treats it like gold. There are even some of the same jokes and I even noticed a sweater that seemed to make it's way from Boston Common to the wardrobe of Will and Grace. Who can explain it?

    Boston Common was a hilarious show. How could NBC be dumb enough to cancel it? The answer they give us is bad ratings, but they wouldn't have been so bad if it wasn't moved to such bad time slots. Anthony Clark is the best on the series, being the funniest of all, with Hedy Burress close behind. Thankfully, USA reruns this short lived show. Thank you USA network!

    Boston Common may be my favorite situation comedy ever. I never missed an episode. I still watch it, in rerun, on USA. It's on every weekday at 10:00 AM. It's hard to believe I can watch the same episodes over and over, and still laugh at all the same spots. Anthony Clark, who plays Boyd, has a special talent for comedy. His antics while getting into, and out of trouble, leave me in stitches. Every actor in this show was made for their part. I can't express how disappointed I was when the show was cancelled. If there is one show I would love to see return, this is it.
