I never liked "space alien" episodes of shows, and I never liked Mork and Mindy either. I know this is old but I totally agree. I would never take a man back who walked out on me for another woman. I would not even stay with him after he cheated. But the Bradys were always "forgive and forget". Funny story: Up until I was in my early 20s, the only time I ever heard of "Section 8" was on MASH. So when I was living in this one neighborhood, and a neighbor complained that a building (that had been vacant for some time) was being opened for "Section 8 housing", I thought it was housing for people discharged from the military for mental reasons. Maybe because she realized it was the same wind chimes? I think the kid was ok. But Alison never showed any concern for the kid. Only how it was affecting Alison. I had a "friend" steal from me once too. This was after I had given her a bunch of stuff. Her family was "poor" and couldn't afford a lot, and I felt bad for her. She asked for one item that I told her "no" because it had been a gift. After she left my house it was gone. I felt I could never trust her again after that. To do that to someone who helped you. This was a family sitcom. They wouldn't show them actually doing "the deed". But they did kiss, and I believe they did turn out the lights and it was alluded to that they were going to do it at least once or twice. Why? Just to have pointless scenes with a baby that add nothing to the show and take time away from the story-lines? How much time were you given? The news media would also have a field day with them after they busted someone. True, but she could have made some effort. She was completely uninterested in anything to do with her children. I have not watched in a very long time (years). But going back: Bo: The marriage vow is "forsaking all others". Not "Forsaking your wife every time an ex comes back to your life" No to mention how he didn't care when Chelsea killed his and Hope's son. Belle: Made Shawn crawl to be back in her life after he "said mean things" to her. Instantly forgave Phillip for trying to take her baby from her. Never cheated on Phillip once (always flashing her ring at Shawn) but cheated on Shawn with ease and no regrets (worried about getting caught doesn't count) with Phillip. "______" phobia - the go to word of liberals when someone has an opinion different than their own. Also, yes, there are differences in opinions. Some actually look more into things than others, instead of just jumping on the politically correct bandwagon. Pretty much in that order. The show was really at its prime in the first seasons. Brenda leaving and Val coming in seemed pretty decent in the beginning of that era. The show started losing something after that. I really only watched randomly during the last 2 seasons. I really could not stand some of the new characters. Why always replace one with another? Just have someone leave and everyone moves on! I will say, I was glad when Claire left, i could not stand her. The fact that NOBODY ever stood up to Annie. She was always able to intimidate everyone. Even when Annie was wrong, they apologized to her. I can just imagine Annie's speech, justifying her affair and saying how she did nothing wrong. I think that was what she was trying to call it. I think if they had allowed the younger kids to act their ages, it could have lasted another season. How about Bobby and Cindy going on their first dates - maybe a double date? Give Marcia a steady boyfriend as a recurring character. (I am thinking a 70s error Nick from Family Ties but more of a hippy type). Sam and Alice getting engaged, with references to the wedding planning) and the finale being the wedding. Peter would already be in high school, they could show her meeting Phillip and her transition from how she was into the uptight person she became. I agree about those being two of the worst. I thought the best was the earliest seasons, when it was long.
