Cybill (1995)

Definitely Enjoyable

I just watched all four seasons on Netflix. I vaguely remember this sitcom being on TV in the 90s, I may have even watched a few episodes. But this time I watched all four seasons and it was definitely an enjoyable series to watch.

My biggest issue was of course how the damn series ended...on a cliffhanger! I really wish TV shows would take into account their viewers and not leave us in the lurch with no series wrap-up. I have fallen for this so many times with shows on Netflix. Now, I typically look up the show first to see if its still running, or at least if it ended, there was some closure before I get invested in the storyline and characters. So many shows just get cancelled and NADA. So frustrating.

I actually started to read her autobiography, about half way through. It sounds like there was some drama around this series and obviously it was bad enough they just walked away from the show. You know for sure there was at some point to be a fourth season since it closed with the message "To Be Continued" (your typical cliffhanger for the next season).

Even with that, I enjoyed all the characters, glad they wrote out her daughter Rachel in the last season for the most part because she was annoying. Otherwise the chemistry between the other actors was quite good.
