Review of Jesse

Jesse (1998–2000)
Growing Up.
20 July 2001
Nice to see Christina Applegate finally get a starring role on TV.

I think this is a very mature role for her as a single mom with the prescription quirky family (who doesn't have one?).

But after the gloriously depressing Mafia! this is a gem. Fast punchy dialogue, yet there's still time for a little bit of romance with the new neighbour.

I've only just started to watch it here in the UK (CH4, mornings July 2001) so it's still early days, really.

Liked the episode about their "First Date" and the incident with the candy - classic "if it can go wrong, it will".

Well done, Christina for shaking off the Kelly Bundy image of being a dullard.

Go-o-o Jesse!
