Why Kate and Allie might be annoying:

    The sitcom was to be titled 'Two Mommies.'
    There were constant rumors that Kate and Allie were lesbians.
    The series was heavily affected by the 1988 Writers Guild of America strike.
    Some fans say that the show 'jumped the shark' when Allie accepted Bob Barsky's marriage proposal at the end of the fifth season.

Why Kate and Allie might not be annoying:

    Because it was initially a midseason replacement, only six episodes were produced.
    However, strong word of mouth from both critics and viewers facilitated a second season.
    The series continued the emergence of strong, independent single women.
    The series was filmed both at the Ed Sullivan Theater and Teletape Studios (the former studio where Sesame Street was once taped).
