Free-spirited Dharma, a yoga instructor and dog trainer, meets and falls for polar opposite Greg, a Harvard-educated U.S. attorney. The feeling is mutual and before their first date is over, they are married -- much to the dismay of both sets of parents, who are polar opposites: Dharma's parents are hippies and Greg's are wealthy, almost snobbish. Dharma and Greg are completely different but are committed to each other and their marriage, showing their dysfunctional parents what true love is about.
Dharma & Greg — Season 1

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Dharma & Greg does not aim to reinvent the sitcom wheel, but the effervescent Jenna Elfman and the affable Thomas Gibson make for a picture perfect pair whose chemistry pops off the screen.

Tim Goodman San Francisco Chronicle The success of this show rests with Elfman... She leaps right out of the TV with her exuberance. Oct 24, 2018 Full Review Hal Boedeker Orlando Sentinel This is a little too precious, but Elfman and Gibson are a charming, attractive team. The sitcom is fluff, but fluff with potential. Oct 24, 2018 Full Review David Bianculli New York Daily News It's Elfman... who makes Dharma & Greg such a delight. Oct 24, 2018 Full Review Kevin Carr 7M Pictures It was a special magic that brought it together and made it gel, and one of the few shows on television that managed to be warm-hearted without being sappy. Rated: 4/5 Oct 30, 2018 Full Review Lesley Trites PopMatters If Dharma & Greg's basic dynamic is not so new for television marriages, its charismatic performers and energetic scripts make it seem fresh. Rated: 7/10 Oct 24, 2018 Full Review Todd Gilchrist IGN Movies Gibson became the show's secret weapon... the actor turns his buttoned-up character into a compelling everyman. Rated: 8/10 Oct 24, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
