I just got done watching a CiC marathon and I must say that that was a quality sitcom that ended before its time. Scott Baio was a master of comic delivery. I hadn’t seen anything so exquisite since Vicki on Small Wonder said “SKEE BOOOORRR” when her nervo chip went hay wire. LOL! Awsome!
I wanted to start 2 seperate appreciation threads, one on CiC and one on Silver Spoons, but figured that one at a time would be best so each show could really get the praise it deserves. Ill be back to throw a shout out to SS later on.
So bring it people. CiC was, and is, the pinnacle of sitcom goodness. BRING IT!
Just in case someone’s searching for it, the band’s name is Relient K, like the old car. Check out the theme song if you haven’t heard it, it’s quite good.
It was an ok song, but the theme song makes Charles sound like a brainwashing dictator
Charles in Charge
of our days and our nights
Charles in Charge
of our wrongs and our rights
I want
I want
I want
Charles in Charge of me!
Quite obviously Charles used mind control to dictate their behavior, strictly regulated what they could do in the course of a day, and brain-washed the children to like it!
My wife loves that show, but it tends to escape me.
Have all the Nicole Eggert you want, just send Josie Davis my way.

Is Josie Davis the one who played the daughter before they changed kids? I checked out that link you posted and…WOW!! If that’s her, then she has really grown up well! I never would have guessed.
erictelevision, after your and Mullinator’s deathmatch, I fight the winner.
Tangent, Josie Davis was in the second batch of kids. She was Sara Powell, the younger but taller sister of Nicole Eggert’s character (Jamie). And yes, she is quite hot. She’s changed a lot, IMHO, but it’s all been for the better!
Thanks, PRNYouth. She is the one I was thinking of/picturing in my mind–I was just confused and thought that she was on the show before Eggert instead of at the same time.
I missed the marathon, but was watching the show when Nick was airing epsiodes at 4 AM when I get home from work. Just as goofy as I remember it, but still the perfect mindless fluff for when I can’t sleep. Although I still can’t stand Ellen Travolta, what an annoying actress. Being related to John Travolta is the only way to explain why she ever had an acting career.
I always though the theme song made Charles out to be interested in BDSM. “New boy in the neighborhood/ lives downstairs and it’s understood/he’s there just to take good care of me/ like he’s one of the family…” Creepy.
Are they only showing episodes with the second family? If so, anybody know why?
