Ricky Schroder's TV movies
Here are the ones I've seen:
1. Something So Right (1982) Ricky's first TV movie. Ricky plays a 12 year old who has (slight) behavioral problems, so his mom (the great PATTY DUKE), gets him a "big brother". (A single older stranger who is willing to spend time with her son.) The movie is pretty bland, watchable mainly for the likability of it's stars.
2. Two Kinds of Love (1983) Ricky plays a 12 year old who loves his mom (LINDSAY WAGNER) very much. He and his father are distant. Soon it becomes clear that his mother is hiding her illness from him. This movie is meant to be a tear-jerker, and although it didn't make me very sad, I still enjoyed it.
3. A Reason to Live (1985) Ricky's depressed father (Peter Fonda) is planning to commit suicide and Ricky tries to stop him. Deidre Hall has a supporting role as Ricky's mom and Tracey Gold plays a girl who likes him. This is not great, but not bad either.
4. Out on the Edge (1989) Ricky plays a very needy 17 year old, whose mom (MARY KAY PLACE) is busy with her job and her boyfriend. He rebelliously breaks a huge intercom machine, so his mom throws him in an institution. I like this one, and I recommend it to fans of Ricky or Mary Kay Place.
5. The Stranger Within (1990) KATE JACKSON stars as a mother who's child is kidnapped as a baby. Years later, Ricky shows up on her doorstep, telling her he's her son. This creepy, suspenseful thriller is one of my ALL-TIME FAVORITES! MY HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION!
6. A Son's Promise (1990) Ricky stars as the oldest of 7 poor brothers who are determined to stay together after the death of their mother. The movie is mainly about Ricky struggling to make enough money to prevent foster care from splitting the boys up. Stephen Dorff costars as one of the brothers. The movie isn't very good, and is only for die-hard fans.
7. My Son Johnny (1991) MICHELE LEE stars as a single mother of two adult sons who still live with her and work in her furniture store. Ricky (her older son) always fights with her younger son. Their family feuding ends in murder. I really like this one too.
8. Too Close to Home (1997) JUDITH LIGHT is Ricky's over-possessive mother. I don't want to ruin this movie, but it's very good, and I recommend it.
9. Hostage High (1997) This was before school shootings were so commonplace. Ricky stars as a frustrated former student who returns to his high school with a gun. Most of the movie deals with Ricky holding one class hostage (and yelling at everybody). Freddie Prinze Jr. has a large supporting role as a student, and Henry Winkler plays the hostage negotiator. This one is only for die-hard fans of any of the 3 actors mentioned.
.....Those are the ones I've seen, but I know RIcky has starred in many more TV movies, and he continues to do TV movies to this day.
