Reviews

SnoopyStyle Bonnie Hunt is a national treasure. She and her friend funnyman Don Lake creates a show with Bonnie as a local TV host and a minor local celebrity, if they actually remember her name. The show centers on the local TV show that allows a guest star to really shine. Then there's a home front where things are much more sitcom.The show is best when the special guests are allowed to do wacky improvised characters like David Duchovny who played Johnny Volcano. Sometimes they even bring in some oldtimers like Carl Reiner and Rip Taylor. It's just fun to see them.The home front is much more traditional and not as special. And then for some reason, the daughter disappears (probably for contractual reason) which didn't help.
paul_mickelson "Life with Bonnie" is a great show; however, don't watch it if you don't have a sophisticated or odd sense of humor. I would imagine that those posting negative comments on this show simply don't understand humor and would be more receptive if the show used the "pie in the face" form of humor. If you enjoy David Letterman you will enjoy "Bonnie". If you enjoy "I Love Lucy" or Saturday morning cartoons you will NOT enjoy Bonnie.
Icequeen1222 I think she added some fun to the show, I feel bad that she is gone. Maybe she can be written back in please. I really think if they had given Sam a friend as well that would have been nice. Charlie has Frankie to pal around with. I just thought that the show was more interesting also having to juggle with three kids instead of two.
cindyjohnston This is a truly enjoyable, heartwarming and uniquely funny sitcom. Bonnie plays a mother who hosts a talk show. While chaos is happening all around her, in her homelife as well as on her job, she brings humor to the crazy situations. While a little far-fetched, it always makes me smile. Bonnie Hunt is simply adorable and the cast "make it work."
