Cool! lr26W_OPnfc Lorimar Television 03-15-2019, 05:02 PM Well that looks incredible cheesy, even for the 80s. '80sSitcoms 03-15-2019, 05:03 PM Well that looks incredible cheesy, even for the 80s. Yes it does! :rofl: But if any of the few episodes were available anywhere, I'd have to watch them "just because"! :lol: Lorimar Television 03-15-2019, 05:08 PM Yes it does! :rofl: But if any of the few episodes were available anywhere, I'd have to watch them "just because"! :lol: Haha same, even though it would probably make Small Wonder look like Shakespeare :lol: '80sSitcoms 03-15-2019, 05:09 PM Haha same, even though it would probably make Small Wonder look like Shakespeare :lol: :lol: Oh, now I don't know about that!

Darn right it does :lol: RetroGuy2000 03-15-2019, 08:56 PM Haha same, even though it would probably make Small Wonder look like Shakespeare :lol: Nothing can make Small Wonder look like Shakespeare. Even dressing Vicki up in a medieval gown and making her recite lines from "Romeo and Juliet" wouldn't do the trick. :lol: Lorimar Television 03-15-2019, 09:15 PM Nothing can make Small Wonder look like Shakespeare.

It was meant to be a "special preview" before the full-time launch in the fall. But the production company went bankrupt, so production didn't resume.

Seems like John Lawlor never had much luck: Hello Larry, FOL for one season, and then this show... DJM77 03-25-2019, 05:53 AM Seems like John Lawlor never had much luck: Hello Larry, FOL for one season, and then this show... John Lawlor was never in Hello, Larry. I watched a Phyllis episode over the weekend that had him in it. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0492552/ RetroGuy2000 03-25-2019, 11:52 AM John Lawlor was never in Hello, Larry. I watched a Phyllis episode over the weekend that had him in it. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0492552/ No, he auditioned for Hello, Larry, but didn't get the part. He talks about this in the E! True Hollywood Story. '80sSitcoms 03-25-2019, 12:26 PM No, he auditioned for Hello, Larry, but didn't get the part. He talks about this in the E! True Hollywood Story. Ahh...you were assuming we knew he failed a HL audition, but I didn't know that either, lol. Hey, he'll always have: "Good stuff, Maynard!" :lol: RetroGuy2000 03-25-2019, 01:11 PM Ahh...you were assuming we knew he failed a HL audition, but I didn't know that either, lol. Ah. Yes. I didn't know you guys didn't know that. He auditioned for HL, and didn't get the part, but just like Felice, the producers kept him in mind for future projects. He said he never had to audition for Mr. Bradley because he had already auditioned for the producers (who produced HL, DS, and FOL), and they were all, "If you can do HL, you can do Mr. Bradley". (I know, I know: he didn't actually do HL, but that's what he said the producers said). Hey, he'll always have: "Good stuff, Maynard!" :lol: My mom still says that catchphrase from time to time, but until recently, I had never associated it with Mr. Bradley! :lol: opus 03-25-2019, 01:28 PM I remember him showing up on Newhart, but I'd have to head over to Imdb to see which ep '80sSitcoms 03-25-2019, 01:37 PM My mom still says that catchphrase from time to time, but until recently, I had never associated it with Mr. Bradley! :lol: You didn't tell us that sooner! :lol: I remember him showing up on Newhart, but I'd have to head over to Imdb to see which ep One of my favorite sitcoms of the '80s (and ever) is "Mr. Belvedere", and he played a fear-of-flying class instructor (not on how to fear flying, but on how to overcome it :lol: ). He led the class right there in the Owens's living room! :) Here you go opus, I've saved you the time and energy ;) - opus 03-25-2019, 04:13 PM Here you go opus, I've saved you the time and energy ;) I had just went to Imdb and was coming over to post it. Classy him using his middle initial for that one :wave: Lorimar Television 03-25-2019, 06:15 PM Plus he’ll always have “I’m not going too fast for you am I Sue Ann?” DJM77 03-25-2019, 07:39 PM No, he auditioned for Hello, Larry, but didn't get the part. He talks about this in the E! True Hollywood Story. Oh, I see. I did watch the E! True Hollywood Story for The Facts Of Life at some point, but I must have forgot about that part. RetroGuy2000 03-25-2019, 08:30 PM Oh, I see. I did watch the E! True Hollywood Story for The Facts Of Life at some point, but I must have forgot about that part. Yeah, they haven't run it in many years, and it's not online, so I should have guessed there would be details in it that people would have forgotten. My bad!
