Network and time : CBS, Monday 8:30 pm (check local listings)
Cast : Jimmy Stiles: Alfred Molina, Donna Stiles: Sharon Lawrence, Mitzi: Betty White, Clair: Park Overall, Gene: Stephen Root
Review : The only thing that stands out about CBS' new show Ladies Man is the stellar cast of TV veterans. Betty
White (Golden Girls), Park Overall (Empty Nest), Sharon Lawrence (NYPD Blue) and Dixie Carter (Designing Women). The lead is played by Broadway and film star Alfred Molina. Molina plays a work at home dad who's surrounded by women, wife, daughter ex-wife, etc. This might be a decent setup but so far the show contains the standard
sitcom jokes. In the first two shows, I haven't seen anything that I haven't already seen on other shows. With some time this show could mature into something
interesting but we all know that networks don't give shows that long to develop a following. This show should appeal to families.
