Mad About You is an American comedy that ran on NBC from September 23, 1992 to May 24, 1999. Paul Reiser and Helen Hunt play a newly married couple in New York City in the episode. Reiser portrayed documentary filmmaker Paul Buchman. Hunt portrayed public relations professional Jamie Stemple Buchman. The couple had a baby daughter, Mabel, at the end of the show's run. The series mostly follows the newlyweds as they deal with everything from amusing daily trivia to big problems. The show's eagerness to find humour in everyday circumstances, as well as its observational banter, drew similarities to Seinfeld, another NBC comedy about thirty-somethings in New York City. Last season, Helen Hunt and Paul Reiser were paid $1 million per episode. However, ratings plummeted that year as the show was moved from its Tuesday time slot to help NBC's burgeoning Monday night comedy lineup. "The Final Frontier" was the series' final episode. Reiser and Don Was wrote the show's theme tune, "Final Frontier." The theme was initially performed by Andrew Gold, but Anita Baker's version debuted midway through the 1997 season. Baker's version was utilized for the remainder of the show's run and can be found on the soundtrack album. Gold's version is included in the compilation. Thank You for Being a Friend: Andrew Gold's Best.
