When Larry and Balki get cable TV, Balki becomes glued to the TV and won't stop watching it to the point where he forgets about his job, sleep, and never goes out anymore. So Larry must make an important decision of getting rid of the cable.

After Balki serves Larry, Jennifer, and Mary Anne some "bibi-bobkas" (Mypoian cream puffs), Larry suggests selling them but baking them cannot be rushed.

Seriously this is the best show that ever existed. It's like Seinfeld with foreigners and big tittied blondes.

Balki becomes glued to the TV and won't stop watching it

Given the nature of this show, I am shocked that he wasn't LITERALLY glued to the TV.

Larry has an excellent idea to present to the owners of the Chronicle but has trouble getting into the party that they're holding. And mistakenly believing that Balki is that Crown Prince of Mypos, he gets invited with Larry.

After the river takes them on a wild ride, The four end up lost in the woods. Hoping that Larry can regain Jennifer's respect, he talks Balki into letting him lead them back to the camp site but they end up walking for five hours in a circle. Later, Larry and Balki almost drown in quicksand and in the evening, they get attacked by a bear.

Larry and Balki are flying to Hawaii with Jennifer and Mary Anne serving along the way. But after eating a Myposian snack the wrong way, Jennifer and Mary Anne get sick. So Larry and Balki decide to cover for them but didn't know they weren't suppose to serve through turbulence.

Larry and Balki, Jennifer and Mary Anne, Lydia and Mr. Gorpley, and of course Larry's father are all trapped in the flooding basement. Larry attempts to solve the problem without much luck. So thinking they're all going to die, Larry must tell his father how he feels. Luck changes when Larry finds his chemistry set.

the one i remember is when larry and balki decided to do some kind of undercover expose involving a briefcase filled with money (and paper underneath to make it look like, well, a lot of money). But oh shit they got CAUGHT by the bad guys and were about to be in a world of hurt but then the COPS show up, amid much audience applause.

The day this comes out on DVD I'm purchasing all of it, all 8 years. Which I will regret doing, 3 hours into watching it.

― Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:20 (eighteen years ago) link

applause following a dramatic sequence on a sitcom is creepy. it's a real "silent majority" moment.

― miccio (miccio), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:21 (eighteen years ago) link

did Perfect Strangers ever have a Very Special episode?

― miccio (miccio), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:21 (eighteen years ago) link

When Balki is elected the head of the grievance committee, Lydia is accused of parking violations and she tries to influence his judgment by buying him "bunny slippers" but Larry tells Balki that he must be tough which comes back on Larry when he's accused of stealing office supplies.

A 500 year-old feud in the Bartokomous family is back when their rival Zolton Bauchelitis is coming to fight a duel with Balki. Larry gets caught up in it and must fight Zolton himself. However, they don't try and kill each other, the winner takes the loser's ears.

― Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:23 (eighteen years ago) link

yeah the one where cousin larry rubbed balki's mepos.

Oh this beautiful, beautiful thread.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:23 (eighteen years ago) link

Larry and Balki discover that Lowell Kelly, a famous poet used to live in their apartment and his unpublished poem is hidden there. So they search for it but Balki doesn't know that Larry plans to sell it after he discovered that it would be worth about $100,000.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:25 (eighteen years ago) link

I just found out there was an episode of The Golden Girls where Rose was worried she had gotten HIV from a blood transfusion and everybody had to learn a valuable lesson so I have to imagine Perfect Strangers had at least ONE.

― miccio (miccio), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:25 (eighteen years ago) link

I am still too floored over the winner must take the loser's ears thing to even comment any further on this thread.

Jennifer was asked out on a date by an old boyfriend and checked with Larry first. But he agreed thinking that's what she wanted but she really wanted to know here their relationship is going. Confused, She breaks up with Larry who is too scared to tell her how he really feels but they eventually end up getting engaged.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:27 (eighteen years ago) link

I guess that was the Very Special Episode.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:27 (eighteen years ago) link

You have to assume Quentin Tarantino caught that one.

that would be the one where balki discovers cousin larry has no upper lip so balki decides to donate some foreskin to create a lip for cousin larry.

Larry and Balki buy a race horse and when they race him, he comes in last. They later discover that he has an incurable disease. But Balki takes the horse back to the apartment and tries a Myposian potion to cure him.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:28 (eighteen years ago) link

They should have had an episode where Balki is attacked by a group of skinheads, inspiring Larry & Balki to find their hideout, where Balki delivers a tearful "why? why do you hate me?" speech to the young, xenophobic hooligans.

I had no idea Mypos was spelled w/ a "y".

When Balki practices his magic tricks for the Youth Center Show, Larry refuses to go because he's been having trouble finding a story for Mr. Wainwright. But after he finds out that Margaret Thatcher will be stopping by, he sees a great interview and decides to go.

?!?!

I am beginning to think these scripts were all created using the 'exquisite corpse' method.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:31 (eighteen years ago) link

me neither! I thought it was Meepos. That's phonetics for ya.

― miccio (miccio), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:31 (eighteen years ago) link

Ah here we are, Ally's favorite episode:

Balki is discovered by a music promoter and he offers him a record and video contract. So Larry convinces Balki to accept and he becomes the newest rap star after shooting a video called "Fresh Young Balki B." But after they watch it, they notice that a different voice was dubbed in and Balki quits.

Title of the episode: "Out of Sync"

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:32 (eighteen years ago) link

Friends totally stole that plot.

― David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:33 (eighteen years ago) link

As the best man at Larry's upcoming wedding, Balki is tricked by Mr. Gorpley into throwing a bachelor party and when Mr. Gorpley show up at the party, he spikes the punch and hires a stripper and Jennifer finds out.

I like the logical flow of the final actions there.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:33 (eighteen years ago) link

When Balki finds out that there is a ghost in their house, Larry refuses to believe it. Jennifer and Mary Anne are convinced when Balki shows them a book about it. So they go up to Balki's room (where the ghost lives) and wait for him to come out. Even when miraculous things start to happen, Larry still doesn't believe it until he's attacked.

...and dies bloodily?

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:34 (eighteen years ago) link

After Dimitri is kidnapped, Balki has a mental block that prevents him from drawing it in the paper. so Larry and Balki try to catch the kidnapper in the basement of the Chronicle.

Nothing about this makes any sense.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:35 (eighteen years ago) link

How does one get tricked into throwing a stripper bachelor party, exactly?

― Allyzay must fight Zolton herself. (allyzay), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:35 (eighteen years ago) link

The end of that episode is reminiscent of the climax of Raiders Of The Lost Ark.

Ok, wait so there's nothing wrong with the concept of 'Fresh Young Balki B' but LIP SYNCING IS BAD CUZ THEY ONLY WANTED HIM FOR HIS BODY.
