  • They stood tall on the wings of their dreams and vowed that nothing was gonna stop them. And that was exactly the way it was for eight seasons. ABC sitcom Perfect Strangers, that ran from 1986 to 1993 chronicling the relationship of Larry Appleton and his distant cousin Balki Bartokomous, captured the hearts of viewers right from the very start.

    I remember seeing "Beverly Hills Cop" when it first came out in 1984 and its star, a young Eddie Murphy, was a tour de force in it. However, Bronson Pinchot as, "Serge," actually stole that scene with Murphy. I think that was the blueprint for his "Balki" character on "Perfect Strangers."

    I remember Bronson being EXTRA handsy on the Surreal Life. Look up the episode with Dickinson. She eventually had to tell him that she was molested To get him to stop touching her. So I absolutely believe the actress who spoke up about him sexually harassing her.

    He was pretty much insistent on. Just doing the character his way.
    As for what one of the cast members stated in the video, i hadnt heard anything about that.

    I loved Perfect Strangers and I liked Family Matters until it was taken over by Steve Urkel. I wish Family Matters could’ve stayed what it was before it became all about that character. That is probably the reason I like Perfect Strangers more cuz it pretty much stayed the same throughout its run and no one character became the focal point of the show.

      You're a moron! Family Matters was dull until Steve Urkel came on there. That was the best decision they ever made putting Steve Urkel on there. I don't think the show would have lasted as long as it did if they wouldn't have put him on there.
