It's an amazing show!, 29 November 1998
Author: Kristen Marino (mouse15@webtv.net) from New York

I only wish I had been alive in 1970 to see the pilot for the very first time! This show didn't have anything flashy like superpowers, or slapstick humor, but it did have good characters. You get to know them so well that by the time you see the finale, it seems like it's happening to people you know, and you want to save them. It's amazing how realistic it is, too. I can really sympathize with Mary and Rhoda. All in all, it's one of the best sitcoms ever!
