A show like this should never make it to air. It will undoubtedly be horrible television.

No, no. No....

This is Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer's role to lose.

Miscast...the tie is directionally off.

Why do I get the feeling that they will portray the Dwyane/Siovaughn relationship more like a Fred Sanford/Aunt Esther thing?

I wouldn’t be so dismissive. The conclusion of the 2003 Season would make a fine Greek Tragedy. The Protagonist is a farcical character guilty of outrageous sins without seeing just how fatuous, venal, and arrogant he has been. The narrative includes elements of love defiled, searing loss, prodigious hubris, vanquished hope, pretensions of honor, and an injudicious abuse of power. Not only are the relationships between men torn asunder by the Protagonist’s flagrancy but his arrogance calls forth the wrath of the Gods who cast his tribe from the summit to the wasteland of a far lesser world. The people wander aimlessly in exile for five years before a Messiah arrives to offer redemption through iron discipline, intense effort, and personal integrity.

Through the catharsis of betrayal and defeat the hero recognizes he must escape the reprehensible influence of the Protagonist and emerges a better man for the experience. I think if properly written this story would make Aeschylus and Euripides weep.

Wait ... I think Hinrich just stole the ball from Diener again and fed Langford for another layup.

Why would a Curly Howard character be in a sitcom about Wade? Oh, that's right. He wouldn't.

The show is described as Wade and "his entourage of eccentric friends"

I hope Robert Jackson plays himself.

That's a poorly knotted necktie, probably from his upcoming DW collection.

I think I had that denim blazer with the zipper pockets back in 1978.  He is missing the matching disco hat, though.

Just like Laverne and Shirley happened by with the Fonz....it's all television Lenny, the stuff you despise as overpriced.   DWade takes a trip down memory lane in Milwaukee and runs into Curley Howard....yeah, that would be impossible to see in a sitcom.  I can find 1000's of things in sitcoms more preposterous, starting with Fonz on waterskis jumping a shark.

Episode 4:

Dwyane returns from a long roadtrip to find fellow Marquette alum Ryan Amoroso sleeping on front step, in desperate need of some cash to pay off a gambling debt. Dwyane makes Amo earn the money by becoming his manny for a week.
