Does anyone remember this sitcom from the late 70s/early 80s. It had two main characters -- one was a guy, skinny, tall, dark curly hair. The other was a woman, blonde, attractive, etc. They ran a counseling center or something like that. I seem to remember also that it was based out of Canada.

It's just something in the back of my mind and I wondered if anyone knew what I was talking about.

Thanks!

:D :wave: :D

Yeah, it was from Canada, and was syndicated in the US during the mid-80s (stations usually ran it during the summer). I remember an episode or two -- it was really horrible. It ran in the US at a time when there was a shortage of recent sitcoms available for syndication, so the distributor wanted to experiment to see if US audiences would accept non-domestic sitcoms. In this case, at least, they didn't.

Between April and May of 1985, Nickelodeon aired a Canadian sitcom that, at first glance, didn't seem to have any business being on a cable channel for children. At second glace, it still had no business. So just what was Hangin' In's (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hangin%27_In) deal? What did it represent for Canadian television? And why was it such a poor fit for Nick?
