Editorial Reviews

At the mercy of NBC's scheduling whims over its entire broadcast run, NewsRadio moved into the 8 p.m. Wednesday night slot for its third season. Long underappreciated, NewsRadio hit its stride in Season 3 with a number of hilariously bizarre episodes. Returning to the madcap workplace of New York radio news station WNYX are owner Jimmy James (Stephen Root), the irresponsible boss; Dave Nelson (Dave Foley), harried station manager; Lisa Miller (Maura Tierney), the on-air talent with a secret relationship with Dave; Bill McNeal (the great Phil Hartman), the caustic, egotistical announcer; Catherine Duke (Khandi Alexander), Bill's on-air foil; Matthew Brock (Andy Dick), a spazzy, often-picked on copywriter; Joe (Joe Rogan), office repairman and busybody; and Beth (Vicki Lewis), the secretary who can never keep messages straight. As with most ensemble workplace comedies, NewsRadio derives much of its humor from personality conflicts and office tension, but Radio takes its scripts to strange new levels. In "Review," Matthew becomes obsessed with the comic strip "Dilbert" and quits his job; Bill orders an expensive massage chair for his desk in "Massage Chair," despite financial cutbacks; Dave gets stuck covering for his co-workers and can't get home for the holidays in "Christmas"; and in "Kids," the staff is forced to baby-sit a bunch of rambunctious third graders so Jimmy can get a date with their teacher. The best of the bunch, however, is "Arcade," in which Bill laments the loss of the office vending machine by holding on to its last, moldy sandwich out of nostalgia. Christina Urban, Barnes & Noble

December 21, 2005: Granted, I can't buy this until February, but just knowing that it's available is, indeed, the best Christmas present EVER. This is the funniest show ever put on T.V. You cannot go wrong with NewsRadio! Especially good about it is that it is not directed at any particular age -- I love it, my father loves it -- it's just funny. Can I give it 10 stars?
