Another legendary performance form Phil Hartman
7.4

arizona1121, United States of America (Reviewer Ranking: 1) wrote this review on December 27, 2005:

NewsRadio is probably the most underrated comedies of the 90's. The writers gave us a more sophisticated brand of comedy lacking in many of the sitcoms of today. It spared the viewer of cheap gags and absurd sexual humor seen in most sitcoms. The cast consisted of an excellent ensemble, and gave us some very memorable moments.

The formula for the show worked well. It's central character who's feet were planted firmly on the ground, was surrounded by zany coworkers who would often venture off on "crazy capers".

The ratings however never really reflected this, as NewsRadio is indeed a ratings enigma. The show suffered a terrible blow when Phil Hartman past away. Hartman's Bill McNeil, was a character that NewsRadio would learn that it could not survive without, as the show limped along with one last season without him.
