1 The Big Bang
2/4/08
Divorced working mother Christine Campbell (series star JULIA LOUIS-DREYFUS) successfully juggles the daily stresses of motherhood and her business. Christine owns a women's 30-minute workout gym with her best friend, Barb (series star WANDA SYKES). Her 10-year-old son, Ritchie (series star TREVOR GAGNON), attends a posh private school, where Christine endures endless encounters with two snooty stay-at-home moms, Marly (series star TRICIA O'KELLEY) and Lindsay (series star ALEX KAPP HORNER). Christine's twentysomething brother, Matthew (series star HAMISH LINKLATER), lives with her and, in a pinch, serves as Ritchie's babysitter.

Christine gets along with her charming ex-husband, Richard (series star CLARK GREGG), even better than when they were married, but her life got a lot more complicated after she met Richard's new girlfriend: a nice, young, impossible-to-hate woman also named Christine (series star EMILY RUTHERFURD) -- the "new" Christine.

I love this show, it is so funny. Julia is amazing in all her roles but as Christine she is hilarious and relatable in her adventures. The whole cast is great and all the characters add their own humor and struggles. I only wish there had been more seasons as I often watch the series over and over again and laugh out loud every time.

This was a great show, Julia and Wanda were a great couple of actresses and made a very positive attraction for the viewers to see a great comedy show. Comes to show you their was no racists and that's how all people regardless of race, color or ethnic they may be. Humorous show that brought you to watch every episode. Very awesome job well done. Thank you Wanda @ Julia for lifting peoples spirits and reaching my up most attention. I've watched Wanda on Ber comedy shows and she is a real funny lady. I like Julia best in this show more so than Seinfeld or Veep. Keep up the excellency young ladies and good luck.I'm commenting from Lorain, Ohio. Have a awesome day or evening whichever it may be when you read my comments.

I loved this show! "Old Christine" was very naive, nervous, sometimes even dumb. However, she was always genuine. I'm going to have to purchase the entire series because I don't want to depend on the networks to provide me with such original and daring content.
