Happily Divorced

Main character still named Fran with no difference how she talks or behaves as Fine or Lovett. Best friend Val/Judi. Nosey worker Niles/Cesar. Pushy parents Mah/Daddy Mah/Daddy. Husband turned friend and friend turned husband Peter/Mr Sheffield & Mr Sheffield/Peter. Episode after episode of Fran & Peter/Max looking for love separately, going on bad, farcical date after bad, farcical date with the occasional episode-long relationship blowing up. On and off unhealthy love interest Danny/Elliot. Numerous recycled plots. Numerous guest appearances of Nanny cast with lines paying homage to their previous roles. A partial recreation of the Sheffield home. Fran meeting a Fran-clone... again. Still playing a character a decade younger than her real age and always lying that she another decade younger than that. Still making overt lies about clothing size being smaller than reality. Still drowns emotion in excessive food but fakes a demure diet in front of dates. The list goes on and on.

I loved The Nanny, so Happily Divorced was entertaining enough because it was basically watching The Nanny again without watching The Nanny.

I am so mad I didn't get to see this show when it first aired. It's 2020 and I still feel it's fresh. Anyway, this is a hidden comedy gem. I am sure not many ppl know about this show. This really deserved better. Also why tf it got cancelled after just two seasons? I am mad. I wanted to see more adventures of Fran and Peter. Fran is such a comedy queen. I fell in love with her. The whole cast did great job on their comedic timings on this show. Just revive it already. 10/10 from me.

Being a fan of "The Nanny," I really looked forward to this new Drescher series. However, knowing the poor quality of the new TV Land sitcoms, I didn't really expect too much. I wasn't surprised. This series is badly written, routinely directed and clownishly performed.

Like "Hot in Cleveland," it comes across as a second-rate 90s sitcom (or even 80s), employing actors who have done far better work in previous series.

I just watched the 8th episode of the "first season".....Rita Moreno and Robert Walden are totally wasted with idiotic dialogue. Lou Diamond Phillips is a pointless "guest star," although Renee Taylor (of "The Nanny") has some humorous lines, due solely to the fact that she previously played "Fran's" mother.

John Michael Higgins brings "gay" to the table, as he often does, but much less convincingly, in this case. He's boring, and stereotypical. And his lines drop with a "thud".

I will be surprised if this series is given a second season, but if TV Land can continue to sustain the horrid "Retired at 35," then anything is possible.

I am not sure if this show is in Australia yet but I have been able to watch it and love it. I am a senior citizen yet still work so coming home and being able to drift off and watch a fun show is invaluable. There are not enough fun shows on TV, ones that you can just watch and enjoy after a busy day. I sincerely hope this show continues as I love to watch Fran and her Lucille Ball like situations. Maybe they are old hat but a good joke, even if old, is far preferable to a new one that is lousy. The actors surrounding Fran are very good and help to make the show very watchable. I love that people from her other show are on this one now and again and it is great to see (Sylvia) Marilyn making a few appearances. Please keep the show going as it is great to have a smile and a laugh after a busy day.

Surprised this lasted two seasons only watched one episode it was not funny they tried to be funny but it wasn't..Tv land has gotten so awful after the 2000s and this show proves it sorry Fran your not Lucille Ball it was too unbelievable of a premise anyway too much stupid heartwarming moments and audience laughing after someone talks the ex husband man is very cringe worthy were did they get him at he cannot act to save his life..sorry this ain't the nanny at least that was a funny show till the last season..glad this got cancelled the world took a collective sigh of relief after it got cancelled.
