An earring on Nick Russo's left ear? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I couldn't help but notice that Blossom's father, Nick Russo, has an earring on his left earlobe. I first looked at it (the earring) at the end of the "Rockumentary" episode. Why would Nick Russo wear an earring?

he was a musician, it was the '80's - this is basic math.

It was the 90's, but yeah, Nick having an earring was no big deal.

"No big deal"? What kind of TV dad wears an earring? I have never seen a TV dad wear an earring. (These were my initial thoughts when I started this thread.)

It was a sign that times were changing for sitcoms, he was a musician so it made sense for him to be hip and sport an earring at least he wasn't square as Danny Tanner from Full House.

I'm sorry if I thought Nick Russo's earring was weird when I started this thread.

I thought the earring looked dumb on Nick. It just didn't work for him in my opinion.

This is from the end of the episode "Such a Night", where Six complimented Nick Russo on his earring.

(Knock on door)
Blossom: Yeah?
Nick: (Opens door) You guys have any pizza left?
Blossom: All gone.
Nick: Time to start that diet, anyway. I may as well turn in. I just wanted to say good night.
Blossom: Good night, Dad.
Six: Night, Mr. Russo. Love your earring.
Nick: Thank you. Don’t stay up too late, huh? Night. (closes door)
Blossom: “I love your earring”?
Six: What?
Blossom: “You look particularly lovely today, Mrs. Cleaver.”
Six: Oh, stop.
Blossom: Come on, we might as well turn in too.
Six: Mall tomorrow?
Blossom: Only if the sun comes up.
Six: Well, I had a good time tonight
Blossom: Yeah, me, too. (turns off lamp) Good night.
Six: Good night.

"Blossom" was supposed to be a edgier kind of family sitcom, kind of like "Roseanne". So it makes sense that Nick Russo wouldn't always be a conventional TV dad.
