"Back to You" was a comedy series that aired on FOX from 2007 to 2008. The show starred a talented cast of actors, including Fred Willard, Ty Burrell, Kelsey Grammer, Patricia Heaton, Ayda Field, and Josh Gad. The series was set in Pittsburgh and centered around a local news station named WURG-TV. The lead character, Chuck Darling, played by Kelsey Grammer, is a veteran news anchor who returns to WURG after leaving for a bigger market in Los Angeles. He is paired with Kelly Carr, played by Patricia Heaton, a former flame who is now his co-anchor.

While Darling is initially excited to be back in Pittsburgh and working with Carr, he soon finds himself at odds with her over their personal history and their differing approaches to journalism. Along the way, the duo is supported by a cast of colorful characters, including their producer Ryan, played by Ty Burrell, and their sports anchor Marsh, played by Fred Willard.

The show is known for its sharp writing and spot-on comedic timing, as well as its amusing, tongue-in-cheek depictions of the news industry. While it may have only lasted for one season, "Back to You" remains a beloved cult classic among fans of comedy and smart satire.

Despite its relatively short run, the series managed to pack in plenty of memorable moments, from Chuck and Kelly's hilarious on-air banter to Ryan's off-kilter story pitches and Marsh's endless supply of sports-related puns. The chemistry between the show's leads is also a major highlight, with Grammer and Heaton playing off each other brilliantly as two seasoned professionals who just can't seem to get along.

One of the show's most impressive feats is its ability to balance comedy with more serious moments. While there are plenty of zany plotlines and laugh-out-loud moments to enjoy, the show also isn't afraid to tackle more sensitive issues, such as workplace harassment and mental health struggles. These moments add depth and complexity to the series, making it a unique and engaging watch on multiple levels.

Overall, "Back to You" is a comedic gem that continues to entertain audiences years after its initial run. With a talented cast, sharp writing, and a unique blend of humor and heart, it's a true classic that deserves a place in any sitcom lover's collection.

Back To You is a series that ran for 1 seasons (17 episodes) between September 19, 2007 and on FOX
