Should not have left Pyramid Corners!


The biggest mistake this show made was changing location and calling it "Almost Home". I think of them as two different shows, really. It totally lost the dynamic. This show is bitter sweet for me because it only lasted but so long. I'm not sure if it was a decision to revive the show (some tv critics are harsh on "rural" comedies), or that they just needed a fresh angle. But the show lost something when it changed.

I remember being in the 7th grade and kids in my class talking about the show but I never really watched it until it came on the Disney Channel years later. Its superbly underrated. Most people remember "Full House" and "Step By Step" which were ultimate cheese sandwich fests. But this show was quality. Great acting too.
