This show was the best! We had to record it somewhere else since cable wasn't available where we lived, but we recorded every episode and watched it at home. I've never laughed so hard in my life! I'd give anything to have those tapes now. They burned when my house burned. If anyone knows how to get this series, please please please let me know!

This could be where they got some of the ideas for Will & Grace. Will is very much like the lead character on Brothers...Joe. Joe was a business man, former football player and had a difficult time admitting to himself he was gay. Hid best friend, Donald was as out of the closet as they come and very egocentric, similar to our lovable Jack.

The story, however, is completely different, and poor Lou, Joe's older brother, could never come to terms w/ his brother's sexuality. He was a good ol' country boy and lived in denial, always trying to set Joe up with women.
