Hate when comedies take themselves all seriously.

It was pretty cute and charming in it's early years. They got a lot of laughs from the fact that free-spirit Dharma and straight-laced Greg (and their like-minded parents) made such an odd match.

Later on they had this storyline where Dharma sorta fell for some guy and kissed him and allowed him to pursue her when she should have put a stop to it, even going so far as keeping a love letter that Greg (of course) found.

Greg is hurt pretty bad and the season finale ends badly (I won't spoil it if you want to see it) and the following episodes got a little heavier than you'd expect from a 'Mad About You' - sort of show.






"Shall we raise our shields, Captain?"
"At ease, Chekov. Again with the shields?"

This is a repeat reply:
Dharma was supposed to be "soooo" in love with Greg, why did the writers bring another man into the show who attempts to court her? If she was truly "in love" with Greg she would not have had "feelings", as she put it, for another man.

Suddenly going dramatic and inserting another man, romantically, in her life while she is still married to Greg is what I feel turned a lot of viewers off. I know it did me. There was no comedy in the episodes about the professor and the results of his kissing Dharma. The last thing I want to see is Dharma kissing and romancing another man other then Greg, so I refuse to watch these episodes when they come on as re-runs. Enough is enough!!!

For some reason the writers of shows and movie scripts today think that love triangles are the only thing that can juice up a show. Someone always has to be sneaking off to someone else' bed. There was more than enough sex between Dharma and Greg to liven up the show, another man in the picture was not necessary. I personally am tired of all the love triangles being thrown on the screen these days. Don't the writers have any real imagination anymore?

Since love triangles are a thing of the present and apparently the future, I have some real juicy ideas that can really juice up a script when a man finds out his wife or girlfriend is cheating on him and who with, since this is the way the writers want to go. Let's be for real and take it to the max. Write a script where a person who has been cheated on gets REVENGE? I know what I would do if I caught my spouse in bed with another man or found out she had been cheating on me and who with.
