Will 61 Report post Posted January 4, 2019 I had never knew Lucy have this show a great review and Mark and Bronson webt to a LWL taping. However, I am loving watching the first and second season from 1986. They combine physical comedy and warmth. It reminds me of Mother of the Bride and Breaking Up Is Hard to do. They have funny moments but are dramedy with a emotionally wonderful ending. This makes me think LWL should have been given a better chance. What do you think?

I've never seen an episode of Perfect Strangers but will most certainly check it out, seeing as how it's available in full on Hulu. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This show was a TGIF Friday night must watch for me in the late 80s early 90s. I loved it. Now we do the dance of joy. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's basically the male-version of Laverne & Shirley and of the early years of The Lucy Show. It is also was one earliest flagship shows of TGIF. Not to mention if it weren't for this show, there would be no Family Matters thus no Urkel. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I totally forgot that I made a note to watch the show- seven months ago! Heck, if it was good enough for Lucy, it's certainly good enough for me! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Will 61 Report post Posted August 15, 2019 I recommend Perfect Strangers Seasons 1 and 2 as classic and 3 to 5 are pretty good. Season 6 had is moments so far season 7 shows the show jumped the shark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will 61 Report post Posted August 15, 2019 Season 7 that's what I am on and yes yawn. It went from good slapstick to note horrible stupid writing. Lucy's worse shows weren't this bad or stupid. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's just that TV swallows up material so fast, there was nothing new left to do. I saw a couple Perfect Strangers and at least they were TRYING. And fairly successfully.
