"I read about three scripts, and at the end of each there was a little twist, a little turn, [and] it was funny."

- H. Alan Scott

Ray Romano

The dramedy series follows families looking to buy a home owned by Paul and Lydia Morgan (Romano and Lisa Kudrow). "You can tell a person's good or bad, not from one incident, [but] from overall. We get to see that these are good people going through bad situations." The series uses comedic actors in sometimes-dramatic situations (yet still humorous). "You know both of us, Lisa and I, from sitcoms-her sitcom was much more well-known than ours, but we have our fans, too. If they allow us to show this other [heavier] side, I think it's very effective." Romano, who shot to fame with Everybody Loves Raymond, says he still gets intimidated working with celebrities
