A Lost Gem

by pcmthmes19 • 2002-02-04

9/10

"A charming romance for the first season and a half. The writing is superb and likeable actors made this a pleasant series to watch. Mary Page Keller in particular was magnificent to help make up for a wooden Matthew Laurance as the other lead. The supporting cast of Chris Lemmon and Alison LaPlaca are even better actors than the leads and Jody Thelen and Eileen Sorkin were effectively cartoonish contributors. The series takes a romantic stroll from Ben (Laurance) and Laura's (Keller) first meeting through the ups and downs of courtship. And this is a very delightful courtship indeed!..."

"Duet" was part of the original Sunday primetime line-up for the newly-minted Fox TV network that launched in April 1987. Fox was the first challenger to the "Big-3" television networks. Other shows introduced that spring included "Married with Children", "21 Jump Street", and "The Tracey Ullman Show."
