Northern Exposure (1990–1995)
6/10
Didn't Know What it Wanted to Be
10 August 2023
It's not really a comedy. And it's not really a drama.

It's just 'cute'.

And in its 'cuteness' - it's truly something special.

You can see why it was successful; but at the same time, you can see why it was short lived.

It's very telling when NO ONE from a property, that was reasonably big in its time - ever became big, themselves.

Watching this 30 years later, I don't know if any of the characters are likeable now; when they all were, back then.

Outside of Ed, whose charms are timeless.

If it was funny back then, that aspect has evaporated.

And the lead now comes off as a total jerk. Lol Like I said, only watch this if you're looking for something cute. For comparison, think the vibe of Christmas entertainment.
