CRAZY ONES, THE - THE COMPLETE SERIES (CBS 2013) Robin Williams, Sarah Michelle Gellar, James Wolk, Hamish Linklater, Amanda Setton, Brad Garrett

Robin Williams (“Mork & Mindy”) and Sarah Michelle Gellar (“Buffy, The Vampire Slayer”) return to the small screen in this hilarious, feel-good comedy from Executive Producer, Emmy® Winner David E. Kelley (“Ally McBeal”).

Simon Roberts (Williams) is eccentric, passionate, unpredictable, and brilliant. He is also the first “Roberts” in the Lewis, Roberts + Roberts advertising agency. The second “Roberts” is his pragmatic daughter Sydney (Gellar). As Sydney struggles to rein in her dad, the agency fights to stay at the top of the ad game, charming everyone from McDonald’s bigwigs to Victoria’s Secret models in the process!

This underappreciated sitcom with witty dialogue and hilarious stories is original television at its best.  The last few episodes were laying down the groundwork for future storylines, all while building a solid funny series. It is really too bad that this show never found its audience before CBS cancelled it.

The supporting cast featured James Wolk, Hamish Linklater and Amanda Setton with returning guest star Brad Garrett (“Everybody Loves Raymond”) as Simon and Sydney’s business partner (he is the Lewis in Lewis, Roberts + Roberts).

Guest stars rounded out the series and featured: Pam Dawber, Kelly Clarkson, Marilu Henner, Ashley Tisdale, Josh Groban, Brad Paisley.

The four-disc set contains all 22 episodes. If you are a Robin Williams fan, this series is a MUST for your collection.
