| | | A Romantic Comedy Where Art Imitates Life.
Features: DVD, English, Hi-fi Stereo
A successful syndicated cartoonist, Caroline Duffy (Lea Thompson) is a neurotic New Yorker who draws upon life's experiences for comic inspiration. Aiding her in her quest for love and material are a zany trio of co-workers and friends, including her commitment-shy hunk of a boyfriend, Del (Eric Lutes); her sarcastic but secretly smitten assistant, Richard (Malcolm Gets); and her man-hungry neighbor and best pal, Annie (Amy Pietz). Featuring the People's Choice Award-winning series' first 24 episodes, Caroline in the City: The First Season is a smart and funny three-disc DVD collection jam-packed with witty banter, caustic comebacks and wicked one-line zingers.
"A comedy of errors, romance, sarcasm and caustic wit...[that] triumphs over its formulaic odds through surprisingly endearing characters..." Adam Arseneau, DVD Verdict
Editor's Note
Lea Thompson plays Caroline Duffy, a successful comic-strip writer who models her toons on her life as a single woman in Manhattan. Through the ups and down she's always able to count on her witty friend, Richard (Malcolm Gets), an aspiring painter who works his days filling in the inked panels at Caroline's apartment. It's there that much of the series' sexual tension simmers, allowing for more than a few of the sitcom's love triangles and season-ending cliffhangers. Though their pent-up affections are kept undercover, they're readily apparent to Annie (Amy Pietz), Caroline's free-spirited best friend and Richard's occasional nemesis. This collection presents the first season of this series about looking for love in the Big Apple.
