Review of He & She

He & She (1967–1968)
3/10
Well, at least we know who loved the show...
9 July 2022
And who was that?

The 21 people who gave this tepid show 9 and 10-star reviews.

I just watched a couple episodes on youtube, and come on -- there's a clear reason why He and She only lasted a year: It wasn't very funny. At all.

And it was so obvious that there wasn't much money for the production. The sets were small, cramped and looked really cheap -- and it looked like there were about three in total.

Benjamin and Prentiss do their best, but unfortunately they could only do so much with weak, feeble writing.

The nail in the coffin however was the snickering, preening 'acting' by Jack Cassidy -- his one schtick being sneering straight (pardon the pun) into the camera.

I know I'll be downvoted, but whatever. Ask yourself this:

Was "He and She" as good as The Dick Van Dyke Show? Or the Mary Tyler Moore Show? Were the characters as 'real' or well-acted as in either of those shows?

It wasn't. Not even close.
