Jamie + Phillip


I just saw that the characters were only in 30 episodes? Huh? Its been years since I've seen the show (I pre-ordered Season 1 on DVD and have been joyously watching the episodes) but I distinctly remember them being in all 4 seasons.... or am I remembering wrong?

Is IMDB wrong about the years and maybe they only showed up in 30 of the 88 episodes?

reply

they are mentioned in probably close to all 88 episodes but only seen often in the first 2 seasons, after that they aren't seen as much. Remember that IMDB says 30 episodes in 1983 and 1984 only--they do not mention the last 2 seasons.

I can think of several episodes in both Seasons Three and Four, where the boys (and Dotty) appeared.
But I watched the show on PAX and for syndication, at least 4 minutes was cut from each episode. And when I did see an entire episode, most often the cut scenes were ones with Philip and/or Jamie and/or Dotty.
I trust they are getting residuals for more than just 30 episodes!

They are in one of the last episodes of season 4 when Amanda tries to convince Jamie to give Lee a chance.
