I Still this show. It was a great show , it talked about issues that happen to people of a certain age.But As Ray Romano said other Networks wouldn't touch it because it didn't have car chases or explosions.And I guess TNT felt that way too after a bit.Shame because it was well written , the main actors seemed to have a great chemistry as well Sad that the most popular shows are "Reality Shows!And now gasp we find out that reality shows are plotted out I.E. Like storage wars.

This is my favorite show right now. It's done very subtle. But you can read very well in the faces of the actors, what's going on in their mind. Surprise here: kudos to Ray Romano, he steals the show. I thought Romano can't act, but he may very well be the best actor on a recent TV show. Everybody else is great, also. I also like the goodness of the character Terry. I know an actor who is like that. Calm, with a true good soul. It's very well written. The humor isn't in your face, but real life and very funny. Finally some people realize, that keeping it real is funny. Probably inspired by real looking BBC series like Spaced, The Office, Monty Pighton. I got so tired of really talented people producing great shows, which partly have quite sick contents, like severed body-parts all around a crime place or weird sex stuff. Because it's great, and there is almost no weirdo stuff in it, I give it a 10. Creativity without blood and gore, way to go, Ray!

I've been a fan of this show from Day One, as I was/am a big fan of the three primary actors, particularly Andre Braugher, as he was the fantastic, Emmy winning actor who played Det. Pembelton on NBC's "Homicide: Life On The Streets". But I also thought that Scott Bakula had been fantastic on the quirky but bold "Quantum Leap", and Ray Romano fairly solid on his hit show "Everybody Loves Raymond." However, potential personal biases aside, this show delivers episode after episode with its witty, dry, and even dark humor, the portrayals of the "everyday men" and their struggles, and just very solid writing in general. This show is quite bold (by 21st century standards anyway) with respect to delving into unpopular yet very real subject matter. Personally, I have been very impressed with Ray Romano's transformation, if you will, from a stand-up comedian to sit-com actor to now serious actor. His effortless portrayal of a newly divorced man who missed his dream of being a pro golfer and now has a gambling addiction - speaks volumes to me. (I am also divorced & had a gambling addiction.) I'm writing this review after watching the "A League of Their Owen" episode. Not only is this my favorite to date, but if you're thinking about watching this show and don't have the time to watch all of seasons one and two, my advice is to start from there and let these flawed yet wonderful middle-aged men into your lives and onto your TV schedule. Strong writing, great acting, and even the warm fuzzies you get after watching are few and far between on the TV screen nowadays, making this show a must-see.

I thought it to be an average show but when i followed through it the season i am glad i did it. As it is a very clever show and the way all the characters perform is brilliant....even the lighting's are not like a young show.they are deliberately put in the times as according to the ages....its just a show about 3 people one is a car salesman, other an actor who is out of work and last one is a divorced one with a party shop owner.... Now it tells about there daily problems, stuff they have to deal with and transition in their lives but there friendship stays and grows.... scott bakula - terry eliot is the best in this series and u will just love it.....this is a very nice show ...and also u wont be disappointed in it if u see for urself....as it covers all aspects....
