Default Couldn't they have showed the bedroom of Kimberly and Mr. Drummond just ONCE in

8 years???-lol Especially with Kimberly's room being so close to the boys room it was odd that they never showed her room aleast once since the bathroom seperated both rooms.

this was supposedly a luxury penthouse......where were all the rooms? Notice the hot tub was not shown again after the first season (at least I don't recall it again).

Maybe Mr. Drummond wasn't as well off as we thought and Kimberly had to sleep in the tub with the sleeping bag. According to Arnold, she was always in the bathroom anyway. LOL!

I don't think the show wanted to spend extra money on another swing set. We already had the kitchen, living room and the boys' room. Maybe they figured that most of the scenes would take place in the boys' room.

Yeah,but still they could've showed Kimberley's and or Phil's room at least one time.

I believe Mr. D's room was shown in "The Wedding-Part 2" episode, when Arnold went up to his room to tell his dad the wedding was about to start.

I also seem to remember seeing Mr. D's room in the "Sam's Father" episode in Season 7, where Mr. D was on the treadmill and Maggie was upset about Sam deciding to go live with his real father.

You are totally correct. It's been ages since I've seen an episode of DS, but I remember catching the "Sam's Father" episode about 15 years ago and thinking: "Wow, that's the first time I've seen the master bedroom." I had no idea if it had been shown before or since.

Other rooms I do not recall seeing on DS --

Mr. Drummond's study (although we saw "into" it from the main living room set)

Kimberly's room

Whatever room was under the stairs (in an episode from the ABC season, I seem to recall Kimberly going in that direction to throw up, so I assumed there was at least a 1/2 bath back there)

The housekeeper's room

The room under the stairs was indeed a "rest" room--the gang was showing it to Ms.Z the big tall bodyguard in the extortion episode. She responds "I don't like the wallpaper" or something to that effect

They didn't show Kimberly's room, but they could show us Kimberly taking a pic of her brother in the shower... What message is that?

Exactly, they were both major characters, it would be nice to see many rooms of the "penthouse"

Now that we mention it, I don't think the housekeepers rooms were shown either.
