Info

Courting Alex is an American sitcom that aired on CBS from January 23, 2006 to March 29, 2006, and was a vehicle for Jenna Elfman of Dharma & Greg fame. Elfman portrays Alex Rose, a successful, single attorney who works with her father Bill at his law firm. Alex struggles with dating while looking for love in a big city. Her father wants her to settle down with her coworker Stephen, a star lawyer at the firm who is smitten with her. She prefers Scott, the tavern owner she meets in the first episode, who her father doesn't approve of. Alex relies on the advice of her assistant Molly and British neighbor Julian. Comedian Wayne Federman has a recurring role as office sycophant, Johnson.

Courting Alex Audience Reviews

Steineded How sad is this?
ChicRawIdol A brilliant film that helped define a genre
Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
kdanek17 I like Jenna Elfman, but the downfall of this show is that she plays a character that most women cannot possibly identify with. Tall, skinny and lovely may appeal to the male audience, but if Elfman would eat a couple sandwiches, put on a few pounds, that may have helped her case with the female audience.Also, she got together with the guy too quickly. There was no wooing stage, no build-up (like Cheers' Sam and Diane). And the guy wasn't even all that appealing. I truly hope that Elfman gets another sitcom opportunity, perhaps as a costar or part of an ensemble cast. I'm not sure she has what it takes to carry a show on her own.
aaronkavo-1 Lot's of great comedy's on TV but this is the one for 2006! The story is about a New York lawyer Alex Rose and her boyfriend Scott. When I first seen the adverts to it I thought it'd be a real girls comedy but I liked it (As you can see from my rating)! Like lot's of comedy's it has canned laughter at jokes that aren't that funny but it makes up for it. So far I haven't seen a bad episode. I don't know about you but I say it is not a prime time comedy.It's like The War at Home, Friends,Joey,Everybody Hates Chris, Two and a Half etc.. one of those. I think it's a comedy that doesn't take that long to learn all of the characters (Like 'The Simpsons') where like Everybody Loves Raymond I still don't know all of there names yet and I've been watching it for like a year now. One of the reasons it doesn't take that long to learn there names is because there isn't loads of characters. It's really a great comedy so give it a chance.
debs11459 I now give myself a half hour break to shampoo the cat; Every Wednesday night at 8:30pm pacific 7:30pm central. What a pile of crap. The commercials have more entertainment value. Fire the writers, fire the cast, put the poor crew on paid leave. This dumb show jumped the shark before the shark was born. I would certainly hope someone in programming at CBS knows the best time to air this program would be at 3:30 AM Saturday morning. That way most of America would be spared the lame idiocy this show has to offer. Whether one uses his or her time to shampoo the cat, read an entire life insurance binder or simply smash ones privates flat with a wooden mallet, anything will be surprisingly less painful than one horrible second watching, "Courting Alex".
PHeath60 This is a cute story, and I have enjoyed each episode..I do have to say, that I feel it is just a reversal of Dharma and Greg..this time She is the lawyer, and He is the happy go lucky, "Don't really care what everyone thinks" person. However, like I said, it's cute and funny and I'm enjoying it :) I have always liked Josh Randall...have missed him since the "Ed" days, so it's great to see him back on a regular basis...!! I also am enjoying watching Dabney Coleman as Alex's father..he can really have some great comedic timing, and I love him when he is abrasively funny. A good balance to the show in general. I will keep watching..it's an easy laugh to top off my Mondays :)
