Dating Brad Garrett is a unique and laugh-out-loud hilarious internet dating reality show that ran for two seasons on Crackle Originals in 2008. This turn-of-the-decade web series stars Emmy-winning comedian Brad Garrett who is best known for playing the role of Robert Barone on the hit CBS show "Everybody Loves Raymond." However, unlike most reality shows, Dating Brad Garrett flips the script on established traditions, with Brad at the helm not just as a contestant, but as an executive producer as well.

In this game of love, the 6 feet 8 inches tall actor / comedian sets out on an intriguing journey in a quest to find true romance. On the premise of the series, Brad meets a series of women for blind dates that have been selected for him. However, the neat twist in the format is that these women were not chosen by elite matchmakers or by executive producers or even by Brad himself, but by the comic actor's own mother and his ex-wife.

Each episode of Dating Brad Garrett follows the actor on a date with a new woman, and as you would expect from a comedian of his stature, hilarity ensues. The show is filled with awkward moments, comedic encounters and unconventional dating experiences and situations that are unlike anything seen in average dating shows. Brad's comedic charm, witty humor, and goofy personality shine through, making for memorable and amusing episodes that are sure to invoke bouts of laughter. While the show is obviously designed to entertain, it also deep dives into the realities and intricacies of modern dating and the trials and tribulations that come with it. From high-end restaurants to comedy clubs to everyday places like grocery stores, each date location is unpredictable, keeping the viewers on their toes.

Brad truly opens up his life to viewers in this show, allowing them to see his quest for love from a closer perspective. The audience gets a glimpse of his vulnerability and humor and experiences the ups and downs of his romantic adventures. This blurring of the lines between reality and showbusiness creates an endearing transparency that is both refreshing and captivating.

The enthralling concept of Dating Brad Garrett is coupled with an extraordinary personable touch that makes viewers root for Brad as a doctor might for a patient. Whether he's expressing his deepest fears about dating again or gleefully sharing moments of genuine connection, viewers can't help but feel invested in his journey. Brad’s openness about his own insecurities and flaws authenticate the show and deliver an especially engaging viewer experience, rare in most reality TV programs.

Brad, demonstrating his comedic genius, also often hilariously deconstructs the idea of a 'date,' resulting in offbeat and sometimes absurd conversations that leave both his companion and the viewers in stitches. Simultaneously, the dates will occasionally veer into surprisingly serious and intimate territories, allowing the audience to witness the depth and humanity of Brad’s character.

Furthermore, each woman on the show has a distinct personality and background, giving viewers a wide variety of experiences and interactions to enjoy. The demographically diverse pool of women leads to a broad range of encounters, from the sweet and innocent to the outrageous and scandalous. Many dates go awry, few hit it off, but each of them is entertaining in its own right.

Although Dating Brad Garrett is about Brad's pursuit of romantic partnership, it doesn't shy away from showcasing how tricky and even disastrous dates can be, serving as a metaphor for modern-day dating and relationships. This unique, twisted reality web series that marries the realms of comedy and romance offers viewers a refreshingly honest look at the stresses, blunders, tensions, and comic moments that come along with dating. Whether you're a fan of romantic shows, comedy, or Brad Garrett himself, this endeavor of a famed comedian diving into the unpredictable world of modern dating is sure to entertain.
