Does anyone know whether such a thing exists? I know in sitcoms yes, obviously. But i'm talking like a 45 minute show like Desperate Housewives etc... I noticed usually it's either like one character, and then supporters: Ally Mcbeal, and then like 6 feet under, or Party of Five etc...where it's a whole bunch. Do you guys know what I mean?

I've written a pilot but I don't know if there's a market for that.

Are you talking a show like Will and Grace? Or is that to sit-com'ish for what you have in mind?

my thought, Will and Grace.
Both of them get pretty equal story elements. Sometimes it's about her sometimes it's about him.

What was that one years ago with Helen Hunt and Paul Riezer?

I think that was MAD ABOUT YOU.

Or something like Perfect Strangers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfect_Strangers_%28sitcom%29)?

Thanks for your replies, but these are all sitcoms. I'm talking about a longer show, like the ones I mentioned. I guess you could say the x files focused on two people, but it's not character driven, and another thing is it wasn't a comedy.
