Members KMan101 Posted January 13, 2015 Members Share Posted January 13, 2015 Missed/forgot to watch Small Wonder [lol at snorting coke to prepare for it]. Not a big fan of Evening Shade. Instantly gave me 'Coach' vibes [not a bad thing but they instantly seemed similar to me]. Love me some Marilu Henner though! It was OK but eh. And for Newhart fans the weekend airings started with Season 5 so you can see Stephanie and Michael. They had a strong cast with Dick, Joanna, Stephanie, Michael, George, The Larry's and Daryl ... I always feel like this show is very underrated. [i do have to LOL at Julia Duffy and Mary Frann having the exact same 80s hairdo. They look a lot a like, too] Rob Stone .... um, yes. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted January 13, 2015 Members Share Posted January 13, 2015 I couldn't do Small Wonder. Never in my life have I been so creeped out by a TV show. It was like an 80s sitcom trying to be a 60s sitcom, and the son was obnoxious as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted January 13, 2015 Members Share Posted January 13, 2015 LOL! Jamie is pretty annoying, no argument there, but he's tolerable. And there's an entire family of annoying people as their neighbors, including pre-Valerie Edie McClurg. But don't give it up completely, get back to it later in its run. And what an astute observation with the '60s/'80s thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted January 13, 2015 Members Share Posted January 13, 2015 Small Wonder creeped me out, too. I had nightmares about that robot girl, she reminded me of Chucky! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted January 13, 2015 Members Share Posted January 13, 2015 Small Wonder is okay, I can see myself watching it. Mr. Belvedere was a SNORE I never could stand her, she's very grating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted January 13, 2015 Members Share Posted January 13, 2015 Oh my God, I can't stand her either. But mostly because of her real life personality. She's exhausting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted January 13, 2015 Members Share Posted January 13, 2015 Exactly! I never understood her appeal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Chamberlain Posted January 13, 2015 Members Share Posted January 13, 2015 Maude is on Antenna TV every morning around the time I'm trying to go bed. So, I have started watching it more than I used to. And, I finally started liking the show. It's actually pretty funny. I used to think it was boring. But, that's when I was only watching sporadically. It's grown on me now. Sucks that I only get this channel in my bedroom. I wish they'd add it to Direct TV so that I could watch it on the non-HDTV/Digital TVs in my house without having to find and buy converter boxes. I cannot wait until they finally start airing Dear John later this year. That was one of my favorite shows when I was younger. Jere Burns was awesome as Kirk. He bought the life to that show.

Members SFK Posted January 14, 2015 Members Share Posted January 14, 2015 I loved that show and yet I can't remember a thing about it.beyond Judd and the English lady who led the group... and of course that theme song! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted January 21, 2015 Members Share Posted January 21, 2015 Do we have a Cozi TV thread? Miami Vice is joining Cozi on March 1. The show is also celebrating it's 30th anniversary that month. It's been a really long time since I've seen Dear John. I do remember liking it and wondering why it never rerun anywhere except local syndication. I don't know if it ever ran on a cable network. It could have. Maybe TBS or USA way back in the early 90s.

Members Ryan Chamberlain Posted January 21, 2015 Members Share Posted January 21, 2015 You should definitely rewatch it when it comes on ATV. It's so funny. I watched the whole series again on YT last year. And, it really made me remember how good it was. Sad it only lasted 4 seasons though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted January 21, 2015 Members Share Posted January 21, 2015 I never could stand Marilu Henner either. I think she is annoying and weird in real life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted February 15, 2015 Members Share Posted February 15, 2015 I know some of you have mentioned not liking Mr. Belvedere, but damn it, I am now obsessed! Easily one of my top fave 80s sitcoms. Yes, it's a pretty predictable family sitcom with very special episodes galore, but it really appeals to me, and I don't know why. It's timeslot reminds me of all the 80s sitcoms that used to rerun in the afternoon about 15-20 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted February 17, 2015 Members Share Posted February 17, 2015 I'm glad that you've finally seen the light! It's now a part of my weekday regime, the last thing I watch before leaving for work at 6pm. What did you think of the Wesley's bff has AIDS VSE? I think it holds up as a charming show. Gosh, to think I used to watch this Friday nights on ABC before they even launched the Miller-Boyett TGIF lineup. I didn't know until a few years ago that Mr. Belvedere had been a movie franchise back in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted February 17, 2015 Members Share Posted February 17, 2015 I actually didn't get to see that infamous ep! I'm hoping to catch it when it airs on the weekend run (should be soon). It really is charming, though, and there's just something different about it that makes it stand apart from similar shows of the era. Surprisingly, I think the first movie pretty much lines up directly with the pilot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
