Weekend at Bernie's Star Jonathon Silverman went from silly 80s movies to this somewhat entertaining demographic show from the 1990s. Jonathon Silverman was pretty funny and appealing, but the factor that kept this show from sinking too low was film legend Ernest Borgnine, who added something very good to this show.
The plots overall in this show were fairly stupid. One time a friend of Jonathon Silverman's was setting up a trapezoid scheme instead of a pyramid scheme, and kept noting throughout the show it was not a pyramid scheme but a trapezoid scheme, with few if any laughs as a result. Silverman overall really seemed out of place in this show, he was too good or his material, and while Ernest Borgnine definitely was too good for this material he definitely made the best of it. Borgnine was the only reason I watched this show. Overall this was fairly mediocre politically correct demographic oriented material.
After two seasons this show was put out of it's misery. The majority of demographic shows fail. This one proved no different overall even with the presence of excellent actor Ernest Borgnine.
