View Full Version : Did anybody see the Family Ties spinoff... Brian Damage 06-10-2006, 12:07 AM ..."The Art of Being Nick?" It was the spinoff of the Nick character as he moved to NY. Mr. Television 06-10-2006, 12:44 AM No. I remember when it aired but for some reason I never watched it.

Mr. Television 06-10-2006, 12:55 AM If I am not mistaken, there were a couple of episodes. You didn't miss much. He was a good supporting character but I don't think he would have been good as a lead.

The ratings were very good on its only telecast, but Brandon Tartikoff decided not to give 'Nick' his own series. However, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who appeared in the pilot as a supporting character, was used by Gary David Goldberg again as a regular in his 1988-'89 series, "DAY BY DAY" (as essentially the same character she played in the "NICK" pilot). :tv: TVFactFan 06-12-2006, 01:42 PM ....was just a pilot for another prosepctive series featuring Scott Valentine [the first attempt to spin Nick off into his own series, "TAKING IT HOME", also disappeared after its 1986 pilot].
