      I agree 100 percent with you. I grew up on this show and loved it. They don't m and shows this good anymore in 2023. Anyways I am rewatchingbthem with my son and daughter. My children love it now too. It's a nice show t o.leav e for my son and daughter to watch with their spouse and children. A legacy of a loving show to leave for my family and generations to come.

      The ballerina was the only chick Willie ever got who wasn't desperate, a nut job or had something else unusual going on. Worst thing you can say about Josie is that she was half nuts from overwork.

    I’m watching these episodes again after so long & it’s a delight. A well-crafted family program. I think it’s so much more impressive given the poor TV and movies nowadays. The family dynamic, the easy dialogue and excellent acting of Sada and Broderick really anchored the whole program, didn’t it?

    • @priscillasalzberg5349
      @priscillasalzberg5349 Год назад

      @@echt114 No. Remember what Kate, Willy's own mother said. "He's my son and I love him but he's not worth what you're giving up (ballet)." Willie feels he's beneath the ballerina. It's his ego. You see this same jealousy trait in Kate in this episode and in another episode where Kate's friend tries to make Buddy a star in a play and tells Kate off, saying Kate is jealous that Buddy would be a star when Kate couldn't be one. One MAJOR moral of this episode that is sublime is that to keep a family together, to make a relationship work with this family nobody is allowed to be exceptional. Everybody has to be average. You also see that in another episode where Buddy hated a school football hero, claiming he was stuck up. When the football hero was diagnosed with cancer and was losing his scholarship and future and life THEN Buddy was consumed with him. If Willie truly loved the ballerina he would have stayed with her. Willie couldn't stick to any commitment. He dropped out of high school. He keeps changing jobs. You and the ballerina's boss are saying the ballerina can have no boyfriend and no outside fun EVER for her to keep her job as a ballerina. If not the dancing Willie would have found another reason to dump the ballerina. Kate would have continued to snub the ballerina too. Willie was engaged to someone else and he dumped her right before the wedding. Willie is full of turbulence, ballet or not.

    • @echt114
      @echt114 Год назад +4

      @@priscillasalzberg5349 I appreciate your taking the time for analysis. Though fiction, most of us have seen these themes at least near our own lives. But Kate didn't state that, she asked her, "do you really think he can take the place of....." Later she asked Willie, "How could you have let her make such a drastic change in her life when you've known her such a short time?" Willie let this nag at him a while and it got to him while he was watching her perform "Willie feels beneath..." ?? That's your projection. Like usual, Willie needed time to weigh the impermanence of his current emotions. I think their relationship was too sudden and new for Willie (or her) to know that they should/could be a long term thing. Willie does have a history of being impulsive and a bit resentful of anyone who tries to argue against the impulse, but he's a learner and most important has a foundation of empathy and caring. The whole family does, and I think that's what makes them appealing.
      What you apparently see as a negative makes me respect the Lawrence ethic even more. People who worship outliers and see their (or usualy the dominant culture's) version of success as an excuse to push others aside, usually just prove to be human garbage worth avoiding if you're looking out for your long term happiness and stability.

    Pinto as you all see is the cars used in this program. ergo, their sponsor, Freddy Krueger aka Robert England is the ballerina trainer or ALVIN. ABC was an ok network. Family had amazing guest stars. PINTO was a crazy popular selling car then, why? gasoline was getting costly then those land yachts were costly! the time were a time of transition. from big cars to smaller cars!
