Brooklyn Bridge (1991–1993)
Truly universal appeal
20 July 2001
I grew up Methodist,not Jewish. I lived in Oklahoma, not New York. Yet this series felt like family, with some delightful cultural differences. It could be warm without becoming cloying. The people were fully developed, not stereotypes or "characters." The episode in which the Jewish and Irish Catholic families went to a Chinese restaurant is one of the best racial and cultural commentaries I've ever seen in any medium. I wish it could have run forever.
