We discovered and promptly fell in love with this show 2 years ago or so.

It's SO funny to see a show set in your local area and hear all the name dropping going on about local businesses and landmarks from that era "It was May 28th, 1980-something". Places like Wawa, The Spectrum, Veterans Stadium, the Willow Grove Mall, etc.

Their neighbors on the show, the Kremps, are a real family and still live there in the Jenkinton, PA area and have a florist business to this day.

This past weeks episode brought happy memories back when they mentioned Martin's Aquarium in Jenkintown which was a local large aquarium/fish/pet store that my Dad used to take all us kids to. It was nothing like a Petsmart or anything today, that place was dirty, noisy, smelled funny and was haphazardly set up and it was AWESOME! Big Grin

I like it. And I think most sitcoms are shit.

Great show!
A quality family show that is maybe the best sitcom since the Wonder Years.

We love that show at my house. I grew up in the 80's and relate to it very much. My 7 year old likes it too, but I wish they didn't cuss so much.

Yes bendable, she's getting thicker.

I haven't seen episodes yet, but I live in Lower Bucks now. You've piqued my interest.
