How I loved this show as a child, back in the 80s. I must have been about 10 or 11 years old at the time and identified most with Guthrie (River Phoenix) on the show! Seeing this intro after all these decades brings back fond memories. This was such a beautiful show and I still love the theme song!!
I loved this show growing up. Look at how many stars came out of this show,Richard Dean Anderson, Drake Hogestyn, Peter Horton, River Phoenix and Tim Topper.
When I was younger I used to watch Here Come the Brides (TV 1968). The premise of the show was taken from the original movie of Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (a 1954 movie musical). The TV show wasn't a musical, but it did have Bobby Sherman (a teen singing idol back in the mid-late 60's). I had such a crush on him. I don't even remember the 1984 version of the TV show. Weird.
Indeed, a great theme song! I haven't heard this song since I watched this show as a kid, back in the 80's. Nonetheless, the song has always stuck in my head! How awesome to finally hear this song and see this intro again, after all these decades!
I was 15 when this show ran and I LOVED Roger Wilson as Daniel. As I watched this intro to my surprise, I sang every word from memory, as though the show was recent. I watched it with my parents, they liked the family aspect and the music, while I thought the brothers were HOT....and yes to this day, I can name each brothers' chararcter names and the actors' who portrayed thems names, as well as Terri Treas as Hannah. Great memories. I want to see the shows again. My fave was A Ring for Hannah/
I used to love this show and was sorry to see it end after only one season. I haven't seen it in forever. I remembered Roger Wilson from Porky's (only he had blond hair in the movie), Richard Dean Anderson and River Phoenix but OMG was I surprised to see John Black from DOOL on this show as well. Had totally forgotten about him - how did that happen? lol
This was the long term plan, had it not be cancelled. Each brother would get married, on each season. So, a planned minimum of seven seasons was planned.
@charmcat123 - funny, was just thinking the same. I was 12 for the entire run of this series - and at any given point had a crush on one brother or another. Time flies...
You have the whole series? How did you obtain it? Would it be possible to you to duplicate it onto a dvd and sell it to me? I love all the boys and it would be so great to see them again. I have followed the careers of the actors and would love to see this entire series again.
Tim Topper did another short lived series, Saturday mornings on NBC called Going Bananas. How do I know this? He appeared as a celebrity player on the game show Body Language. Bet Patty & Selma would like this series (LOL).
Wtf, none of the brothers were named correctly! Wow, Glad I never saw this, that movie was one of my childhood favorites and this prob would have crushed it, lol
wow. I didn't even know this existed. This looks so dumb in a way that makes me want to watch it. Too bad I was only a toddler when it came out. I didn't even know it existed until a few days ago when I saw on another website about large families on tv.
?What in the WORLD??? The movie is a favof mine of all time, my family still teases me about it, I still rent the VHS from the library, lol...this looks and sounds awful, lol, I'm sorry ya'll, but that's a corny song *crackingup* I'm gonna have to show this to my mom.
Me and my big brother used to love this series when we were kids. I am from Ethiopia.
Thanks for adding this! This was the BEST show from my childhood.

Loved this show! Had such a crush on Drake Hogestyn. Wrote him a fan letter and he wrote a personalized note back. Was so sad when it was cancelled.
He's one of the reasons I watch Days of our lives

This was my absolute FAVORITE show. Thanks for uploading this. Seeing River as a little boy bums me out, though. I loved/ LOVED this show, though. :)
Bring it back please thank you i love this
Richard Dean Anderson is so grogeous, even when he was younger at that time!

What a theme tune! We need this on dvd!

I am surprised this show did not rerun on TNT in the 1990s!

It still had music. It's just a modern interpretation of the movie in a TV show format.
Huge fan of the original musical and never knew this show existed until today, only one season though! Was it not popular enough to keep airing? Pity

Cool.
Thanks for this.
As well as Drake Hogystyn of Days of Our Lives!
I was 13 when this series came out. I would have to check when it ended to know if I was still 13 at that point.

Going Bananas also had the future Uncle Phil; James Avery.
Dude how short lived was this show any way?
