Warburton Shines in Rules of Engagement

Every sitcom should have Patrick Warburton. The fledging TV format would be doing a lot better if this were the case. And even though it’s not the case, “Rules of Engagement” is one of the best sitcoms on TV. The show finds 40’s something couple Jeff (Warburton) and Audrey (Megyn Price) living down the hall from 20’s something couple Adam (Oliver Hudson) and Jennifer (Bianca Kajlich) with David Spade, playing single friend Russell, thrown in-between. All the actors are great, but Warburton practically steals the show with his deadpan demeanor and quirky humor. Luckily, Warburton is well-matched by Price, whose spunky Audrey perfectly counters Jeff’s over-the-top expectations. “Rules of Engagement” airs on Monday on CBS at 8:30.
