Great Show

This show was really good, then they went and spun it off and it turned crappy. And Mrs. Torkelson lost 2 kids when they went to the other show. She should be in jail for murder.

What ever happened to the other kids i agree i loved this show!! almost home was ok but i remember liking the torkelsons better

I used to watch this show all the time on the disney channel. It was considerably good but that was back in my day. All the new disney channel shows suck a$$. Why can't they make shows like the old ones or at least re-air them.

Do any of yall remember shows called:
Ready or Not or the origional Bug Juice?
Those shows were great!

I do remember all the good shows back in the good old days on the Disney Channel... hehehe... such as:

Torkelsons, Almost Home, Babysitters Club, Ocean Girl, Flash Forward, Ready or Not, Mickey Mouse Club (MMC)

I love them all!!! It sucks that there aren't any shows like that anymore... anyway I don't watch TV as much as I did when I was younger...

Okay, does anyone one remember the show with the twin brother and sister who solve mysteries? I can't remember the name of it and it is driving me insane.

I started watching this show in about '96 or '97 when I was seven, and I would absolutely LOVE to watch it again! It brings back pretty good memories!

Oh I miss this show!!! and Flash Forward and So Weird (before that blond-headed chick came on it)

You can say that I'm one curly fry in the box of the regular

The show with the twins who solved mysteries was called "The Edison Twins." It was centered around a teenage sister and brother twin pair and a younger brother. I LOVED THAT SHOW! To this day, I still remember how they spelled out "S.O.S" on a wall using reflected light from tin foil. The Edison twins were like MacGuyver for the Disney set.

Is it just me or did this show get its premise from the movie "man in the moon". They both came out in the same year and took place in the southeast. Also, the main characters both talk to the man in the moon. Anybody know?

[–] sterlingrose33 20 years ago

It’s been a while for both but…I thought "The Man in the Moon" sounded like it would be similar but after watching it I felt they were very different. The main characters are really not alike and there is a love triangle with the two sisters and the neighbor in "man in the moon."

I loved the Torkelsons and So Weird. Yes before the blond girls come on. And I liked Flash Forward. Not only that, but the older original movies. The new ones suck.
