not entertaining-LOL. I gave PS another chance last night and it's something about the Balki character that makes me want to change the channel.

I like the show,its one of my favs from the 80's.Maybe if you watched the first 3 or 4 episodes in a row,it might stck with you,maybe not.

Personally, I like the show, I think after awhile you'll grow to like Balki, they might drag on a bit about him at times, but he really isn't all that bad. One of my favorite parts of the show is the slapstick comedy, that's what makes this show entertaining, I mostly look for the physical comedy, I suggest that you don't pay attention to anything else, except the physical comedy, maybe then you'll like the show.

I love everything about the show.

I think Balki's hilarious, but I'm a Larry fan ^_^

It's a great comedy, physical or not (which I am partial, too, as I also love "Laverne & Shirley").

I love this show. I think one of the reasons I enjoy it so much is because I grew up with it. Whenever I watch it today it takes me back to a special place in my life. Me and my family use to get together each week and all watch it together as a family. I think that's why I enjoy it so much, not so much for the show itself, but for the memories it brings. Had I not grown up with it, and only started watching it recently, I might not enjoy it as much.

I grew up with it too. I still remember watching the one where Larry, Balki, Jennifer, and Mary Anne all go on a camping trip and the wild raft ride. Don't also forget the part where Larry and Balki got stuck in quick sand.

This is one of my all time favorites. This show offered something that The Odd Couple didn't. Three Stooges slapping around, slapstick physical comedy, Balki embarrasing Larry which is always priceless, and more.

I remember when WGN-TV in Chicago aired reruns forever and then they took them off. Later on I missed the show and when it came back into reruns, I taped all the episodes I could.

I am now taping episodes off of Nick at Nite and I suggest that all of you do the same to avoid missing this UNFORGETTABLE classic.

I love PS. I watch it every night I can, Balki and Larry are hilarious.

This show is special to me because I, too, grew up watching it. I still remember sitting on my parent's bed upstairs with my sister watching this show. Great memories, Balki made me laugh so hard!

What made you laugh? The sound of Balki's voice? I can't see it being nothing else.

I grew up watching the show too.. That's why I still enjoy watching it... at 4 am.

It does show its age sometimes, but most 80's shows do.

I like the interaction between Larry and Balki and they played off each other so well.

Larry and Balki were the male version of Laverne and Shirley

So, Sitcom Analyzer, or is that your REAL name? What's the matter, SOLOMON got too boring? I can see you're still spending your time criticizing shows other than Married with Children (smirk) and Three's Company. Ah, same old, same old. I still find it hard to believe someone who actually idolizes Al Bundy (it's just sad). Well, I guess it's true what they say - old habits do die hard. (laughing)
