IABGN was one of my fave early '80's programs. It is so rare, i haven't seen it in over 20 years. Does anyone else remember it? Diana Canova, Danny Thomas, & Rory King. As you may recall (if you do recollect the series), the opening sequence featured Diana, & Rory, riding a horse in the opening sequence. And... Danny Thomas was wonderful. I even had a crush on him :-). His character was warm & lovable, as father, & grandfather on the show. Cassie

Well since it's an '80's program, & there isn't any thread for the show, where else m i supposed to put it? And besides, Diff'rent Strokes is a 70's show, & belongs in that category. Sorry if your feathers got ruffled.

I remember this show, even though I only watched it a few times. I was a big fan of Diana Canova ever since SOAP. It does pop up on TV LAND every few years, not as a regularly run series but sometimes as part of a boxed set. Keep an eye on their schedule.

I appreciate the response. Thanks Dave :-). Yes, that would seem like something TV Land might do: put the show on in a 'Box Set' time slot on a Saturday afternoon or something. Even better would be on their regular weekend line-up in the TV Land Kitschen block. They could put I'm A Big Girl Now, on after Welcome Back, Kotter, & get rid of Square Pegs, or Perfect Strangers. They could leave on Soap, though, because that's worthy of airtime, & boasts the talent of Diana Canova :-). See, i'm just brimming with ideas! At any rate, the advice you gave is wise, so i will keep my eye peeled for the series on TV Land. Till you mentioned it, i hadn't ever even knew the show had been on TV Land. But if any network would pick up the rights to it, they would. Nick At Nite really has nothing worth watching, except for Three's Company, & All In The Family. Those two shows are the only classics on their channel. Cassie
