The Class

CBS....Monday night...8pm

The premise, quickly established in opening scenes, is that Ethan Haas (Jason Ritter), a pediatrician and romantic, plans a surprise party for his fiancee. To celebrate that it has been 20 years since he first laid eyes on her when they both entered third grade, he invites as many former classmates as he can find.This seemingly thoughtful gesture is too much for the fiancee, who claims that she is suffocating from all of Ethan's attention. She storms out, but the party goes on, allowing an odd assortment of 28-year-olds to get reacquainted and, in some cases, form new attachments. Highly entertaining...will watch again and again....maybe the new Friends? Dare I speak so soon?
