Caroline in the City is not stale. The only reason the series died out was because Caroline and Richard got together. The whole show was about the little things that could add up to something MAYBE happening between the two, or some chance encounter or such like a glance shared, "a moment" or something. It leaves you on the edge of your seat wondering. That was what was good about the show. Caroline in the City can be related to Lois and Clark, the New Adventures of Superman in that they both had characters that were always on the verge of getting together and that both shows ended after the characters got together. The allure was then depleted and the shows slipped away.
