miss watching this on reruns back in the early 90s it use be on everywhere on tbs super station and wgn now it nowhere to be seen does anyone got the dvds

I don't have a clear cut answer, but one possible reason could be that the stations that were airing it let their syndication deals end. Maybe they feel that there’s probably no money in airing Charles in Charge. I don't know if it's because it's simply considered to be too dated or the recent aversion towards Scott Baio due to his outspoken politics and the accusations that Alexander Polinsky and Nicole Eggert leveled against him.

Has Hollywood turned into such TYRANTS & DICTATORS that they ONLY air shows starting people they agree with??

Has been for years, just more prevalent today.

Kind of surprising though that that was basically the end of Scott Baio's career. Or if he was in things after that it didn't get any publicity like this & Happy Days did.

I have never thought or heard of Hollywood being considered as tyrants or dictators? Why do you think that is the case?

Old time Hollywood & the glory days of Hollywood were NOT extremist liberal ZEALOTS that we have today!

We can thank the modern day Democratic party for Hollywood's EXTREME far left liberal LUNACY!!

Scott Baio was a regular in the first 2 seasons of Diagnosis Murder. And he was in some reality show later on.

But he wasn't the star in that show and he's not known for it.

The reality show is from much later in 2007 and 2008 and even had his name in the title. Scott Baio is 45 and Single.

im watching it on Nbc app the yard sale episode funny each time jamie talks to steven burkell sounds like she says urkel lol

Im watching it on the NBC app, Im five episodes in and I must say its a terrible written show seeing as it premiered the same year as The Cosby Show which revived the stale sitcom formula.

i was more in to the 2nd season onward buddy deserved be treated better like he was in the first few seasons you know.

i forgot it is on the Nbc app

Scott Baio was a regular in the first 2 seasons of Diagnosis Murder. And he was in some reality show later on.

He was also the lead on this Nick at Nite show called See Dad Run (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/See_Dad_Run), which ran for three seasons in the early 2010s.

My first thought as mentioned concerned Nicole Eggert's and Alexander Polinsky's accusations against Scott Baio. I really don't want to assert that those are the main factors for the show not being aired much, but I do think they've left a strong & lasting negative impression of Baio.

Besides the controversies surrounding Scott Baio of recent times, I suspect that what also may have made the show difficult to syndicate was the hard narrative shift early on. Of course, it was different watching things pan out in real time back in the '80s.

But watching it in strips, it could be awfully jarring to see Charles go from working for the Pembroke family to working for the Powells come Season 2. And considering that most people now associate the Powells more than they do the Pembrokes from its lone season on CBS, the uninitiated might initially wonder who the hell these other people that Charles worked for.

My point is that when watching a sitcom or any other TV series, I'm pretty certain that audiences want and crave for stability. In other words, they don't want to have heavy-duty and drastic changes thrown at them all immediately and at once.

When the show moved from CBS to syndication after a year and a half away, it does feel like a we're witnessing a semi-reboot with only a returning Michael Pearlman's Jason Pembroke as the real connective tissue between both eras.

I'm guessing that Charles in Charge (https://bestofthe80s.wordpress.com/2010/04/06/charles-in-charge/) is also pretty dated by today's standards (https://moviechat.org/tt0086681/Charles-in-Charge/5f70d02b801ca27403e53c46/It-made-no-sense). When it first came out, Charles in Charge benefited from the post-Mister Mom (that movie where Michael Keaton plays a stay-at-home dad while his wife is the breadwinner) trend of men suddenly taking on traditionally female domestic roles.

Besides Charles in Charge, we had Who's the Boss?, Growing Pains, and Mr. Belvedere. Even The Cosby Show, if I'm not mistaken, had the idea of having the dad conduct most of his business at home while the mom goes outside more to work.

I don't think that it was common place in 1984, to see that many male nannies or babysisters (https://moviechat.org/tt0086681/Charles-in-Charge/58c7406b6b51e905f66e1b9d/Why-do-they-need-a-babysitter) on television.

Scott Baio was also on this TGIF sitcom back in the '90s called Baby Talk (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baby_Talk_(TV_series)) which was more or less, a TV adaptation of the movie Look Who's Talking.

And it was just as crap. Bruce Willis has a very limited range.
