Designing Women (TV Series) Miss Trial (1990) User Reviews

First funny episode in ages

[professor_of_gamez · 7/10 · 19 December 2023]

It's a shame that all of the DW episodes couldn't be as funny as this one. Almost every character got into the act.

I still don't get the appeal of Julia's rants. As I have mentioned before, perhaps you have to be a woman to get her humor. All I know for sure, is *I* don't find her rants funny.

This site appears to be experiencing some technical glitches. Even as I am typing additional letters and words, the "minimum required number of letters left" is NOT going down.

I don't fully understand this. Perhaps this requirement is only the last couple of years, as I have seen some reviews that are just a sentence or two.

Julia's on trouble, and Charlene's no help.

A very funny episode has Julia arrested for avoiding jury duty the very same week that she has a dinner with Jimmy and Rosalyn Carter, and loose lipped Charlene spilling the beans about her past, and eventually getting her sequestered. Julia gives Charlene a warning that is quite funny and frightening. Charlene's got bigger fish to fry, having won a grab at a record store, one of the funniest bits of physical comedy in the show's history.

Suzanne gets one of her funniest lines in a conversation in regards to a burning sperm bank which ties in to Julia's case. Ellen Albertini Dow, the rapping grandma in "The Wedding Singer" has a funny minor role as the juror whom Julia is sequestered with.
