    ... it isn't actually as rampantly egotistical as it initially might sound. As American comedies go, it's not up there with the likes of "Frasier", but it's gently amusing enough at times. Shepherd's chemistry with her co-stars here almost recaptures the heydays of "Moonlighting", and Alicia Witt as her understudy proved herself to be an able comic actress in many episodes. Certainly it wasn't really anything more than 'fluff', but "entertaining fluff", at least.More nice things to say. Does it really matter? I doubt you can catch it anywhere now, anyway! Oh alright, it probably represents the best possible use of someone like Cybill Shepherd.

    The show has always struck me as a poor-man's "Absolutely Fabulous" - the escapades of two moderately attractive, wealthy, divorced women who are best friends. They fall into situations that would make Lucy and Ethyl scratch their own heads. The comedy revolves around their views which stem from their own self-indulgence. The character of Cybill's daughter, Zoe, is usually an unwilling witness to the goings-on, and handles the situations with dread.Christine Baranski steals the show, while Cybill Shepherd comes off as flat and without conviction. I don't mean to slam the show, but I do feel that it was not all it could have been. Worth watching.

    I am a big fan of Cybill Shepherd and have loved her comedy sit-com. Every episode throws up unforgettable laughs and memories and Cybill and Maryann form a unbreakable bond. All the actors perform excellent roles and always make the show a delight to watch. I haven't really seen any other American comedy to match this! Far better than "Will and Grace" or "Friends". Please don't lower yourselves to that trash!!! Monkeys would perform better!! It is such a shame that they stopped making other Cybills......please do more..... We need you!!

    When i heard that MOONLIGHTING star Cybill Shepherd was returning to television, i was thrilled. And after seeing the series, i was even more thrilled. as CYBILL is without-a-doubt one of the best comedy series i've ever seen. Cybill Shepherd was just brillant in this series, as was mutliple Emmy-Winner Christine Baranski. This series featured first-class writing, and first class acting, and launched the careers of a bevy of young stars, including Danny Masterson (that 70's show), Alicia Witt (Urban Ledgend), Peter Krause (Sports Night, Six Feet Under and Dede Phiffer (For Your Love, yes michelles sisters!).. The only complaint i have is that Ms. Shepherd never got an Emmy for her work on this brillant series.
