"This Is The Story of Two Sisters, Jessica Tate and Mary Campbell"

[Yavin4]

I loved this show when I was a kid. It was truly groundbreaking. At the time, the show was forced off the air when Reagan won because of the Moral Majority.

3. i watched most if not all the shows....

4. Classic Hollywood sappy television. Hyped by the media.

I'm glad that I did not waste much more the 43 minutes watching that show.

:puke:

[question everything]

5. Was a great program. And then it spinned Benson

Wonder what happened to all these actors.

6. As soon as I read that line, the soundtrack kicked in ... loved loved LOVED Soap.

I was still in grade school, and probably really understood only 25% of what I saw, but I loved the way it made my parents laugh.

But I remember mimicking Burt when he was doing the invisible thing. Kids in my 5th grade class thought I was a loon. :D

Thanks, Yavin4, for posting this thread.

7. I remember that opening.

8. When Burt thought he could turn invisable....

That was sure comedic brilliance.

9. WOO HOOOO! LOVED this show!

I would watch reruns if I could find them.

10. I hated it...the Billy Crystal, gay, not gay character...

...great way to set back a movement.

11. And the TRULY wonderful Martin Mull!

Not that Fred Willard wasn't fabulous, but Mull's delivery was just the best. I was sorry Fernwood Tonight didn't stay for very long, but maybe it's best. Tom Waits' appearance alone was worth the existence of the show.

12. That was one of my all time favorites.

[Mojambo]

13. A kind of proto Arrested Development. n/t

[Dr. Strange]

14. There's a new sheriff in town.
