Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?

Lancoor A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action

Whitech It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

Catherine_Grace_Zeh "STEP BY STEP," is my opinion, is a pure ABC hit! I can't recall every episode, but I still enjoyed it. It's hard to say which episode was my favorite. However, I think it was always funny when a mishap occurred at school. I always laugh at that. As a matter of fact, I think just about every single one of J.T. (Brandon Call) and Cody's (Sasha Mitchell) lines were funny. It would have been nice if Penny (Patrika Darbo) had stayed on the show throughout its entire run. Everyone always gave a good performance, the production design was spectacular, the costumes were well-designed, and the writing was always very strong. In conclusion, I hope it never stops airing in syndication.

Bolesroor "Step By Step" gets my vote for the Worst Sitcom of All Time. The premise was stolen blatantly from The Brady Bunch- and ostensibly it was a family show- but the devil is in the details, and this production was surely supervised by Satan himself.Divorced woman with children marries divorced man with children. They all move in together to form... what? A happy family? Not really, as the house is anything but a healthy, loving atmosphere. In fact there was an undercurrent of hatred, and intolerance, and general perversion. Mom and Dad are constantly trying to sneak away from the kids for sex. Many episodes were built around the recurring "Battle Of The Sexes" theme, in which the sisters would gang up against the brothers and try to humiliate the others.This might be tolerable if the show were populated by attractive, likable actors but the kids were downright nauseating. The two oldest sons looked Tolkien creatures- stunted dwarf-boys who never passed puberty. The youngest was Bookish Genius (AKA The Nerd) straight out of central casting. He looked like neither his parents nor his siblings. The producers weren't even trying.Then there was Staci Keanan, a pretty little cupcake who looked like a porn star in training. She was allowed to wear her hair bleached-blond for most of the series, in spite of the fact that everyone knew she was brunette. This killed off ANY reality and proved to be a major distraction- why would a girl as good-looking and sophisticated as she be home all the time bickering with her brothers?To make things worse, since the majority of the "kids" were in early-to-late adolescence, there was a sexual undertone to all that they did. Not only that but for the first time in a family sitcom, many of the jokes were based on inappropriate sexual inferences and innuendo. Guys crowing to their gorgeous half-sister about what they did on their dates? Girls making nasty comments about their brother's sexual incompetence? It's about as heartwarming as having the local pedophile over for chicken dinner.And then there was Cody, a hilarious "breakout" character if you happened to be a semi-retarded thirteen year-old girl, but nauseating to everyone else. This guy was Keanu-Lite, and about as original as a paper plate. He would show up, look stupid, stretch the word "Dude" to seven syllables and get a rousing standing O from the [non-existent] studio audience. This is the worst of what television has to offer.I was just a boy when the show premiered and not quite as verbose as I am today; even then I sensed something was wrong with the show and watched as little as possible. Many of my parent's friends refused to let them watch the show because they felt it was "sick." In retrospect I see they were right. The re-runs are on today so you don't have to take my word for it. But bring a moist towelette and a change of pants... you're going to need it.

chester-gray This show was pretty good, considering that it was one of those family comedies. It was way better than Full House, or Saved By the Bell. It seems that like many other programs, the show's quality declined with the addition of the new baby. Strangely, she matured from an infant to a five or six year old girl within a couple of years. Sadly, most of the younger cast has not made a TV or movie appearance for five or six years.

Thurin One of the best comedies I ever seen. What's more important, this show is funny and entertaining from the beginning (1991) to the very end (1998) - for the whole 7 years. That's remarkable. For today's shows that's very rare!
