This show was surely the ending of the 20th century. It killed it.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:43 (twenty years ago)

Nah, that was the final two seasons of Roseanne

― miccio (miccio), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:43 (twenty years ago)

Oh dear. Yeah, you're right.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:45 (twenty years ago)

i remember sitting through "Perfect Strangers" in order to get to "Full House"!

not long after all that, "TGIF" started, and Robo Urkel was on his way!

Larry and Balki are driving to Lake Whitefish where Larry and Jennifer are getting married and they are pulled over for going too slow, but they are arrested when Larry backs into the patrol car, then they are picked out of a line-up when Larry is identified as a robber. Larry and Jennifer end up getting married in jail

Mary Anne was promoted and moves to London and Balki is heartbroken and miserable. So Larry suggests Balki get a hobby to take his mind off her. So he joins a motorcycle gang where the club plans a wild initiation ceremony.

Oh fucking fuck, the FLASHBACK CLIP EPISODE (to which all shows are doomed to eventually give into):

Larry prepares a surprise party for Balki who is taking his college entrance exams. While they are waiting for him to return, they talk about some things they've been through together such as when they first met, the first day at the Chronicle, when they tried to fix Jennifer and Mary Anne's shower, etc. Larry thinks that he has helped Balki come along way but it seems that Balki has been helping him more.

THE VERY SPECIAL FLASHBACK EPISODE!

― David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:49 (twenty years ago)

i liked balki in True Romance.

― bingo (Chris V), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:52 (twenty years ago)

Balki asks his young friend Arnold Drummond to 'look at the crazy pictures with me!'

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:52 (twenty years ago)

Larry checks an atlas and finds out that Mypos doesn't actually exist. With the help of an FBI he discovers that Balki is actually renowned hitman Alphonse The Tiger, inspiring a Usual Suspects-like flashback of all the clues that "Balki" had left throughout the series. Larry, infuriated by the betrayal, attacks his former friend while he sleeps, setting off a nude showdown in the rain.

― miccio (miccio), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:55 (twenty years ago)

I think you need to film that.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:56 (twenty years ago)

micio needs to write sitcoms!

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:56 (twenty years ago)

"You and me are very much alike, Larry! WE BOTH HAVE BEEN LIVING A LIE, HAVEN'T WE?!"

"I'm nothing like you! NOTHING! *fires shot*"

― miccio (miccio), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:57 (twenty years ago)

"You were the Chosen One!

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:57 (twenty years ago)

"Isn't it time you admit the truth about yourself, Larry? The REAL reason my betrayal bothers you so? ACCEPT YOUR DESTINY!"

"NOOOO!!!" *leaps from tree onto Balki's back*

― miccio (miccio), Thursday, 3 November 2005 17:00 (twenty years ago)

because i am too young to have ever watched perfect strangers, i have a question about the show. after the credits, which cast member, if any, would let you know it was a "miller/boyette production"? i know its the same company because family matters was a spin-off and carl winslow did it on that

― _, Thursday, 3 November 2005 17:00 (twenty years ago)

Ethan, aren't we the same age?

― Allyzay must fight Zolton herself. (allyzay), Thursday, 3 November 2005 17:10 (twenty years ago)

Ethan ages backwards, like Merlin.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 17:27 (twenty years ago)

The one episode I remember that's not mentioned yet (very surprisingly!) would go something like this in the episode guide:

Larry comes down with a sickness, and Balki offers him a special Myposian cure to take. After Larry devours the elixir, he feels revived -- except the only problem is that Larry was asleep for three days as a result. So Larry must find a way to explain his disappearance from work.

― iDonut B4 x86 (donut), Thursday, 3 November 2005 18:42 (twenty years ago)

im only 22!!!!

― _, Thursday, 3 November 2005 18:44 (twenty years ago)

i was born in 1982 (ill be 23 on November 22), and i watched 'perfect strangers' when i was 6!

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Thursday, 3 November 2005 18:47 (twenty years ago)

i watched too much tv, period.

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Thursday, 3 November 2005 18:47 (twenty years ago)

haha you're barely younger than me, and older than my sister--who used to crush on Balki!!!!! You missed out, man.

― Allyzay must fight Zolton herself. (allyzay), Thursday, 3 November 2005 18:47 (twenty years ago)

Thankfully, after all of Perfect Strangers, Bronson Pinchot's gay-character-acting peak was still in Beverly Hills Cop.

"I'm Sehr'ge"

― iDonut B4 x86 (donut), Thursday, 3 November 2005 18:49 (twenty years ago)

Did Pinchot ever do a Robin Williams or Paul Reubens and play a "dark cameo" in a movie, where he was an evil fuck-up?

― iDonut B4 x86 (donut), Thursday, 3 November 2005 18:50 (twenty years ago)

..you know, for hollywood cred?

― iDonut B4 x86 (donut), Thursday, 3 November 2005 18:50 (twenty years ago)

he threw up in true romance!!

― _, Thursday, 3 November 2005 18:53 (twenty years ago)

unless you meant something else by paul reubens' "dark cameo"

― _, Thursday, 3 November 2005 18:53 (twenty years ago)

Am I misrembering this or did Balki used to do a little knee-slapping nipple-tweaking Myposian dance of joy when he was excited?

― jocelyn (Jocelyn), Thursday, 3 November 2005 19:03 (twenty years ago)

I forget what movie, but Paul Reubens played some hippie guru pimp dealer dude very briefly in some movie in the late 90s.

― iDonut B4 x86 (donut), Thursday, 3 November 2005 19:20 (twenty years ago)

Oh right, Bring It On

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 19:23 (twenty years ago)

BLOW

― David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 3 November 2005 19:24 (twenty years ago)

The Dance of Joy did indeed exist. My mom now claims whenever she spots a dog humping a leg or another dog or something, they're doing the Dance of Joy. Thanks, Balki, for your inappropriate dancing!

― Allyzay must fight Zolton herself. (allyzay), Thursday, 3 November 2005 19:25 (twenty years ago)

mine was a masturbation joke :-(

― _, Thursday, 3 November 2005 19:28 (twenty years ago)

masturbation and dogs humping legs, just another day in an episode of Perfect Strangers.

"I'm Sehr'ge"

To what is this pertaining?

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Thursday, 3 November 2005 21:37 (twenty years ago)

Luuk Skywalker, anyone?

― Special Agent Dale Koopa (orion), Thursday, 3 November 2005 21:38 (twenty years ago)

xpost - I may have the exact quote wrong, but this is early on in the movie where Axel F is in a museum.

― iDonut B4 x86 (donut), Thursday, 3 November 2005 21:39 (twenty years ago)

"TO WHAT IS THIS PERTAINING?"!

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Thursday, 3 November 2005 21:40 (twenty years ago)

To what is it pertaining, what is it regarding?

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Thursday, 3 November 2005 21:42 (twenty years ago)

Abe Froman...

the Sausage King of Chicago.

this thread makes me happier than i can say

― strongo hulkington's ghost (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 3 November 2005 21:52 (twenty years ago)

i can still sing the whole theme song. too bad it's not typically included in karaoke choices.

I love that song in some sick sad way.

― KSTFUNS (Ex Leon), Thursday, 3 November 2005 21:54 (twenty years ago)

NOTHING'S GONNA STOP ME NOW

― strongo hulkington's ghost (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 3 November 2005 21:55 (twenty years ago)

that song is a perfect artifact of it's era

― strongo hulkington's ghost (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 3 November 2005 21:56 (twenty years ago)

All I can remember is the harmonica break and string flourish.
