I don't remember a lot about it except for a pinball game where one of the characters was supposed to be pregnant and when the pinball went through "Stone I'm having your baby" and how cute Dave the stand in wasI remember watching it and enjoying the theme song a lot and how it ended so soon. If there is anything ready for a reboot I think it would be this series. It truly had a lot of early 90s soap opera esque references to Beverly Hills 90210 and I believe the creator actually worked on that show so it doesn't seem too far off I'm looking forward to watching this with new eyes (I was a teenager when this show came out)
... View MoreA great series killed by a bad time slot, Grosse Pointe skewered the WB's teeny bopper comedies(Dawson's Creek, et al) and yet was still a great teeny bopper comedy itself. Featured a great cast who has generally gone on to do other offbeat and brilliant projects (perhaps most notably Irene Malloy's starring role in Andy Richter Controls the Universe and Lindsay Sloane's brilliant one off on Greg the Bunny). Hopefully both seasons will be released on DVD someday.
... View MoreGrosse Pointe screened in Australia on the 10 Network on a Sunday evening. The show is now screening on the Fox8 channel on Foxtel(cable television). I am really enjoying watching the show again. I was so annoyed that the WB cancelled Grosse Pointe as I thought it was one of the best sitcoms around. It was funny, well written and convincingly acted.I also really enjoyed trying to work out which Grosse Point cast member(as in Hunter etc..)was based on which Hollywood actor or actress. I am sure that I have a few correct.I had Hunter Fallow as Shannon Doherty. With Marcy Sternfield I thought she might be based on Tori Spelling. Quentin King has to be Luke Perry but I am not really sure about the rest.Anyway, I know its too late for the show to saved but I am hoping that Warner Bros will release a DVD of Grosse Pointe, maybe with heaps of extras.Living in hope...
... View MoreI watched this show all of my 6th grade year, when it was on, even though I had to stay up until 10PM (which doesn't seem late now, but it was when I had a lot of homework and did it in the morning). I always loved it, despite its faults. Granted, it's no West Wing, but it never claimed to be anything it's not. Even if the WB won't bring the show back, I wish it would play some reruns, for old times' sake.
