This is the sort of quality material usually seen from the BBC; intelligent and witty without being jokey; funny and believable situations with superb acting. The best part for me is that although the show had a mostly all black cast, it was not an exploitation of the black demographic. It was a smart, dry, somewhat dark situational comedy to which anyone could relate. A bar/restaurant owner is struggling to do whatever he can to stay afloat and keep his business going despite lots of problems and setbacks. Frank is everyman. I would love to see this on DVD because I missed some of the episodes when they were originally aired.
