Movie Reviews of The Bob Newhart Show - Seasons 1 -4
Movie Review: Bob Newhart Holds Up Very Well as Funny Shrink
Summary: 5 Stars
Bob Newhart plays everyone's favorite psychologist located in Chicago in the 1970s. Some shows don't hold up well over time but this one does. The central reason is Newhart himself, whose comedy has always been based upon the ordinary person's foibles. Newhart never did political humor, profane humor, sexual humor, etc., The problem is that those kinds of comedy date very easily as prevailing attitudes change. However, ordinary man has the same problems with his personality and his relationships now as he did in the 1970s. Newhart's patients are hilarious. Perhaps the best known was Elliott Carlin, the Chicago real estate hot shot who was a total disaster in his personal life. Group therapy was also a riot on Newhart. Newhart's supporting wife, played by Suzanne Pleshette, was a very good foil for him. His neighbor, the dimwit airplane navigator, was also funny, especially when he got interested in Newhart's sister. There were the other doctors and his secretary in his office building too. The most obvious way this is dated is there is not a single computer in sight. Also, the fashions are pure '70s, not exactly a fashion decade anyone cares to remember. Other than that though, it doesn't seem dated at all.
