In Pursuit Of Happiness

Review by Melissketeer President Paul Leone...

A short lived NBC series starring Melinda and a couple of boring guys who played her husband and brother. (Don't flame me, I'm sure they have misguided fans who think Melinda is a boring nobody too...) To be brief, since thinking about this rather dull show pains me, Melinda played Mackenzie Rutledge, a laid off graphic artist with a corporate zombie for a husband and an obnoxious loser brother who moves in during the pilot. Potentially interesting (I mean, what is Seinfeld except four losers hanging around in NYC?), but the writing was bad, and aside from Melinda, the cast wasn't all that great. It fought the good fight, but the ratings just weren't there. Gone and mostly forgotten, even (especially?) for obsessives like me.
