All's Fair Audience Reviews

Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Beanbioca As Good As It Gets
Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
calvinnme Bernadette Peters is a liberal photographer who espouses every liberal viewpoint out there in 1976. Richard Crenna is a conservative writer who espouses every conservative viewpoint that was out there in 1976. There are no nuances here, no "I agree with you on that point". They argue to the point of being shrill. Oh, and for some reason, in 1976 this show would have you believing conservatives are afraid to commit and liberals are not. In fact it is Peters' character trying to convince her future lover (Crenna) to commit to his middle aged girlfriend in the first episode. He cannot.So on they go for the autumn of 1976 until spring 1977, arguing tirelessly, yet locked in the bonds of physical attraction and probably the attraction of verbal sparring. And after a few episodes of this it got old. In the long run I think that this show helped Peters' career because she played her unlikeable character believably. I came here thinking I was the only person who remembered this old sitcom. I was surprised that reviewing this show was not virgin territory. Why do I remember it? Because when I was living in the dorm in college there was just one common TV set and the other girls wanted to watch this show.
joynsmiles Reflecting back on this show, I can recall one hilarious joke. Remember when Michael Keaton's character rushed into the room and announced that he and President Carter had come to an agreement? The President had agreed to use one of Keaton's jokes in a speech. Keaton's character had agreed to accept Jesus as his personal savior!!! Isn't it amazing that all these talented actors were in this ONE series..and it only lasted for a few episodes?
Gatorman9 The only thing I really remember about this politically-oriented sitcom was one joke by Richard Crenna. During the 1976 presidential race, in which Jimmy Carter ran against Gerald Ford with Bob Dole as Ford's running mate (yup, he was nationally known even way back then), Crenna comes home from shopping to say that while at the supermarket he'd seen a Carter sticker on a Ford, a Ford sticker on a Chevy, and a Dole sticker on a banana! With that kind of humor, maybe it's no wonder this show didn't last that long. And with that observation, I'm off to the produce market!
dataconflossmoor Witty, clever and too acrimonious for it's own good!!!...These are the adjectives which best describe this avante-garde sitcom which depicted the nuances which irritated people, not necessarily the major issues and/or the overall big picture...You got the idea that the most heinous form of apathy commenced after the elections, not before!! Both Richard Crenna and Bernadette Peters may lay claim to having VERY Successful MOVIE AND TELEVISION CAREERS!!!.....These two stars were in a sharp and well developed comedy "ALL'S FAIR"...The bottom line on this Norman Lear sitcom, is that it made everyone a victim of their own political hypocrisy!!This show epitomized effective television programming!! Why? because it showed the biggest culprit to political stagnation to be inflated egos!! This was corrupt candor which effectuated the pejorative aspect of human behavior!! From the offset, ratings popularity for this series was dubious, they had it up against Monday Night Football!!! Wonderful political comedy!! The American public just did not think so!!! So it is a proverbial case of the director and producers being right, and the television audience being wrong!!! Not exactly a first in this instance, but the entertainment industry has to continually throw new concepts out!!!! Some make it, and of-course, some do not!! Disagreement with these findings which have a correlation to ratings success, are of course, inevitable!!
