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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

    • Agree. Much more miss than hit. Maybe I'm out of the loop, but I thought clothing was supposed to be flattering. A lot of the Y&R women are seen in the tight solid color dresses ,often with cutouts/one shoulder. Now that may be a fashion but to have all of them in interchangeable dresses... Do the characters have a particular color pallette/style that is unique to them? BTG does a better job in that department. Some recent Y&R looks. I actually like the dress but we see that style too often.   Nikki's new look is not to my liking.
    • The first show I found had Maeve dressed horribly, and I just shook my head and thought she must've been thrilled to be portraying someone much more sophisticated and rich. Vanessa's hats and gloves probably cost more than her AW character's entire wardrobe.
    • It is the least aware sobriety memoir I've ever read. No spoilers, but where was the editor to ask what she learned from all the stories in her life?
    • Well awards like these are certainly different from big name award shows in a few ways but this is an awards show, not a poll. Not the same gravitas, not the same cachet, etc. but an actual awards presentation show is going to happen. We Love Soaps used to have one. The Webbys, etc. various.  But if you are aware of a better place for this to be posted, then say so, but to be clear, NOT A POLL. 
    • Ok I just bought Kim's book on Amazon... should be an interesting read.
    • Well, I think she's trying to be funny, and it's technically accurate, if misleading. If you leave out the Sonni part it's "Josh left Reva to (go to) Venezuela shortly before Reva had her miscarriage because of Vanessa." I guess "Josh left Reva after finding out the child she was carrying was his father's, and miscarried because of her drugged out step-daughter-in-law, where he met a woman with split personality..." isn't as "snappy". As for Robert, I thought he clicked with Harley and Annie, not so much Olivia. I'm on the fence about Sonni. Before Reva came to town, he crapped out with Morgan and Hillary, but a) I don't think anyone really had chemistry with Jennifer Cooke, who was not good, and b) I don't think the romance with Hillary was ever much more than filler. (oooh, Josh and Katie might've been cute...) But, after Reva, Josh was never really chem tested with actresses. I know there was some kind of flirtation with Jenna, which still seems odd to me (especially since Jenna was hiding a pregnancy).  But other than Cassie, Josh got involved with other women (from what I recall) when either he was out of town, or Reva was presumed dead. He didn't bust up with Reva and start dating around town.
    • Thanks for the info. Timm was a model for years, so one could speculate he may have done something like nudity etc... that violated CBN's moral clause. He was good in the role. He had an awesome mop of 80's blow dried hair that would rival Ted McGinley.....LOL
    • Before I met Reva, I really did enjoy Josh and Annie. The beginning of their relationship was really cute, the flirting and chemistry was there. I was fully into it, but then I learned who Jeva was and realized it couldn't sustain. I just read a few interviews that Kim gave online, and it's pretty clear she loves her wine, which I love. I'm a wine guy too, so I'm not surprised she had to have a little here and there to get through some things.
    • Opinion polls conducted by soap podcasters are not the same as "soap opera award shows".
