Following the daily life of a newly married couple, Paul, a young handsome filmmaker and Jamie, a beautiful relationship expert, who do their best to put rules for their marriage at their small apartment in Manhattan.
The premiere of this NBC comedy series... has the Buchmans continually clashing over matters so trivial that they appear trivial, making it difficult to care whether they make up.
Mad About You was the kind of show you watched alongside your clucking spouse, pointing out how many of the same idiosyncrasies you shared -- exactly how it was depicted on Seinfeld, by the way.
The Buchmans often model passive-aggressive communication, and Paul plays the childlike half of the couple to Jamie's tsk-tsking grown-up, but otherwise the series' humor is innocuous and charming.
