Default Becoming addicted to this show because of two characters

PEARL AND SANDRA,

I love Pearl in whatever scene she is in because she always has a great line like when Mary and lester was kissing in front of her window and Mary asked...Peral how long have you been in that window? And Pearl said...."since 1943" LOL
Plus she reminds me so much of my grandmom in how she communicates with Calvin.


Sandra is just so damm funny in addition to being a looker and steals almost every scene she is on the show. I still remember being attracted to her at the age of 12.


Far as the rest of the cast, I like everyone else in this order

Brenda.....great actress
Calvin
Mary....Marla Gibbs was a straight character on her own show
Lester
Mailman
Rose.......weakest character on the show

How come you didn't put anything after Calvin, Lester, and the Mailman? And have you been watching this on the centric network like I have been?

It did, but I liked that last season when they added Stoney Jackson along with Dillon. That snobby new landlord I could do without, but they had some good episodes in the final season.

I think it had a lot to do with the show being on saturday night. The fact that it was not a school night, I was probably out doing something with friends.

But the NBC shows I did watch every week on a school night was

Cosby show
A Different World

Mine too. All of those shows. I'm glad I grew up around the time that I did.

Yeah but it aired in syndication here in the summer, that's how I really got into the show. I was a Latch key kid so during the summer, half of the day I was in the house watching TV until my parents got home.
