Decent little show
The show only lasted 2 seasons and probably could've only really eeked out another season or 2 on the premise it had. But for what it was it was very entertaining when it did last. Christina Applegate is in her best role since being Kelly Bundy on Married with Children. Christina is far better and more charming in this role then she is in her current role on Up All Night. Melissa McCarthy and Jennifer Esposito are also really good in their roles as her best friends with Kevin Dunn and Jean Smart both really solid in the roles of Samantha's parents. The show was good since you could see Samantha really making an effort to change her life but you also got to see flashbacks of when she used to be a total b*tch.
Simple, easy to watch bit of fun
Recently rewatched this as I remembered quite liking it the first time around. The whole cast compliments each other well, but in my opinion Jennifer Esposito steals the show in every scene she's in. Her portrayal of Andrea is hilarious. Why this show didn't last beyond two seasons is beyond me.
A good sitcom!
Did you enjoy 13 Going on 30? If so, you will certainly enjoy this sitcom. As it is impossible to watch Ugly Betty without remember The Devil Wears Prada, Samantha Who has an essence of 13 Going on 30. The best friend character have the same soul on both, and even the job of the guy is the same (photographer). But it is not a negative point. The central plot is great: if you wake up and discover how disgusting you were, could you change it? Besides, if you use to see TV series, here you can find actors from a lot of populars one, like Brian from What About Brian, Sookie from Gilmore Girls, Tuvok from Star Trek Voyager and of course, Kelly Bundy from Married with Children. I think this TV Series has potential to last for some seasons, and I hope they develop well this!
Wonderful show, shame it was cancelled!
I wish there was more seasons of this! Watched a couple of episodes when it was first on, but bought the dvds recently and binged them - such a lovely show. It's light, funny, sassy, great actors and script. Love Christina Applegate and Jennifer Esposito, they are hilarious. We need more light-hearted shows like this!
Funny and nice and clever new comedy. Nice to see Christina Applegate again.
"ABC's" new hit comedy series "Samantha Who?" is certainly funny and the plot theme is centered around a neat concept of amnesia of a young lady named Samantha. It's something that we as viewers hope never happens to us, that being memory loss, and then all of a sudden we awake and slowly have to learn about our friends and family. This series begins just that way with Christina Applegate("Married with Children")as a female named Samantha who awakes one day from a coma with her parents by her bedside yet she doesn't know them! All memory is gone she doesn't even remember her life or friends or career, she must then rekindle her romance with boyfriend Todd(Barry Watson) and rework her friendship and partying ways with best friend Andrea(Jennifer Esposito). The big questions as the show goes on how will the new Samantha be a fun loving angel and nice girl trying to regain place of memory, or will she return to her devilish and partying ways of being promiscuous and wild. It's just great to see Christina Applegate working again she's actually more beautiful than she was on her "Married with Children" days. Also Jean Smart and Jennifer Esposito give good supporting performances. This series is one of the better new ones that's funny and charming, and it's interesting to follow along the characters new rediscovery of life, love, and most of all to find out who she really is.
