Still good after all these years


I used to watch this after school in the afternoons in the 90s, the programming had this come right after "Full House," so it was part of my schedule too.

Now, after seeing how far tv has fallen into the "stupid and unwatchable" category, it feels refreshing to be able to see this again, whether it be on Hulu or HBO max. Plus, one doesn't have to deal with the stupid commercials, and you get to see episodes that I never could quite catch on ABC or whatever station was showing them back in the day.

I look at the story-writing, the acting, and the character development in this show, and think to myself, "They don't write tv like that anymore, and entertainment is poorer as a result." It's certainly better than the garbage regular tv or certain current shows on streaming have.
