This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

My favorite animated feature of all-time.The thing I love most about this show is it's willingness to show the vulnerability and humanity of the therapist. Often, the roles are reversed, where-by, the patient seems much more confident than Katz, himself. It is also very entertaining seeing Benjamin, Kat's son, counseling the therapist and bringing him down to Earth in many cases.The character of Laura, his receptionist, is very funny, although admittedly and pointedly less-so she would be in real life.Memorable episodes are the ones with Steven Wright, Jeanine Garafalo, and the guy whose "feet weren't finished".I read an article some years ago that Jonathan Katz has M.S. and that is why he was unable to continue the show. Get well soon, Doctor. "A round of mental health for everyone!"

Whilst i'm not a big fan of stand-up comedians, i did find this sitcom based around the comic material of 100's of famous American & Canadian stand-up comedians & the life of their therapist & his son to be very funny indeed.Apart from the input by those stand-up comedians, the writing by the shows creators was also very funny.The humour is very clever & amongst the best you'll ever see/hear in a TV comedy show.How this got axed i will never know, unless the makers didn't want to make it anymore, because i can't believe that ANY TV company in their right mind would want to axe this gem from their programming.Every episode is so funny probably because of the guest stand-ups that bring their own material to the show.Maybe one day soon someone somewhere will have a change of heart & make a new series, i'm sure the many stand-up comedians in North America will be queuing up to take part.

This is one of the funniest animated series ever. I started watching Dr. Katz in 1998, early in the year when I got my satellite dish. Our cable company doesn't carry Comedy Central. The show had a good run, and many of the episodes were downright hilarious. The characters are so loveable, how can you not watch? You have Dr. Katz, a psychologist, who studies the minds of celebrities, mostly comedians. Then, you have Ben, ah Ben...the loveable kid who isn't really a kid at all. He's in his 20's, but he doesn't have a job, and he spends most of his time sitting around the house with two different colored socks on...the kind that are white and have colored stripes at the top. Ben has a thing for his dad's secretary, Laura, who for an animated person is stunningly beautiful, I have to say, and he always gets laughs when he tries to ask her out or flirt with her. Dr. Katz was a great show, and it's a shame Comedy Central didn't renew it. I guess they have better things to air like 18 episodes of the not- so- funny SNL a day. According to a form letter I received via e- mail, Katz was supposed to run on the weekends for good in reruns, but that never happened, because they replaced it with Duckman, and Comedy Central no longer owns the rights to the series. You can, however, pick up tapes of the show at amazon.com. You can also find people online who have episodes on tape who are willing to copy them for you, some for free, some for a price. I know that's illegal, but when they don't have every episode available for sale, how else do they expect you to see it? Check it out if you can, you won't regret it.
