has to be OFAH although the post-1990 years are like a different show altogether.

having said that i don't know if there was ever a better ensemble of sitcom characters than this lot

and the (SPOILER) episode where Kirk's true identity was revealed was an incredible/tragic TV moment.

I need to get the Dear John DVD. I keep asking for it every xmas but my other half is like "No you don't really want that." It was filmed in my neck of the woods - John drives past my dentists (the Patrick Doody Clinic) at one point.

Voted Dear John – haven't seen them in years, but as an early pubescent I was drawn to this and Ever Decreasing Circles.

I loved then hated OFAH. Bit of distance now, I'd probably enjoy it again - retro Peckham thrills.

Yeah that Dear John Kirk reveal was amazing. Voting for Just Good Friends though, for Vince's family and Penny's mother.

stevie's summary of Sullivan's career is fairer and more accurate than my flipness, i was very into Just Good Friends at the time tho i can't for the life of me remember why now except some bitter edge to it that appealed to my teen gloom maybe
