Well ok thanks for making me think, AGAIN, of the episode where Balki becomes a famous rapper. "Fresh Young Balki B" your song is in my head again. FUCK YOU.

― The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 19:07 (twenty-one years ago)

― laurence kansas (lawrence kansas), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 19:27 (twenty-one years ago)

WTF THIS SHOW WAS ON FOR EIGHT YEARS???????

I'm still amazed.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 19:27 (twenty-one years ago)

i'm more amazed that someone took the time to put an episode guide up.

― oops (Oops), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 19:30 (twenty-one years ago)

Still boggling over here. EIGHT YEARS.

― The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 19:33 (twenty-one years ago)

Larry wants to put some sparks back in his marriage, and after he fails with Balki's secret treasures, he goes shopping with Balki and accidentally gets locked in the store after hours with a mad dog on the loose.

― Allyzay flies casual (allyzay), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 20:03 (twenty-one years ago)

Balki's secret treasures

SO GODDAMN WRONG.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 20:08 (twenty-one years ago)

I so knew this was a donut yotch thruuud.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 20:11 (twenty-one years ago)

Larry decides to grow it big to make money off it unaware that growing it big has wacky side effects

― laurence kansas (lawrence kansas), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 20:13 (twenty-one years ago)

OH NOES

― The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 20:16 (twenty-one years ago)

MAGE IT BEEGER, LARRY, MAKE IT BEEGER!

― slightly more subdued (kenan), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 20:18 (twenty-one years ago)

After reading every single episode summary I'm convinced Larry was a very greedy man.

― laurence kansas (lawrence kansas), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 20:22 (twenty-one years ago)

..or very insecure, in the latter case.

― donut debonair (donut), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 20:26 (twenty-one years ago)

Or closeted or...

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 20:26 (twenty-one years ago)

Larry lets him go when he sees what a great shot Balki is but it turns into a disaster when Balki will only let them kill one kind of ducks - pterodactyls.

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 20:32 (twenty-one years ago)

I mean, no, YOU DON'T BE RIDICULOUS!

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 20:32 (twenty-one years ago)

"closeted"

― The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 20:35 (twenty-one years ago)

The quartet are traped in a cabin burried alive by an avalanch and they try to dig a tunnel to the outside world.

That seems a little...edgy.

― Allyzay flies casual (allyzay), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 20:46 (twenty-one years ago)

Only if they die at the end.

― slightly more subdued (kenan), Wednesday, 8 June 2005 20:49 (twenty-one years ago)

When a famous psychic visits the Chronicle, She goes into a trance and predicts that a bog storm will come and Larry will die at midnight after sitting on a sheep and eating a golden ring.

Larry's softball team has a chance of winning the championship but the star player wes sent to prison. So He promises to let Balki play until a star ringer shows up.

― Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:05 (twenty years ago)

The only picture I found of Balki on the back of the horse-drawn cart next to the AMERICA OR BUST sign is huge.

― David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:06 (twenty years ago)

BUST PLZ

― Dan (BOINGY BOINGY BOINGY) Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:06 (twenty years ago)

Those show descriptions make me hurt.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:06 (twenty years ago)

Larry and Balki invite Jennifer and Mary Anne over for dinner but cannot agree on what to serve which cases a rift between them and eventually a rift between Jennifer and Mary Anne.

How is that an episode of an entire show???

― Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:07 (twenty years ago)

Lydia has been offered the opportunity of having her on TV advice show but she has one problem, she's afraid of cameras. But Larry tries to force her to do the show because of a mistake he made in high school when he turned down an opportunity.

Creepy.

Sometimes the world looks perfect,
Nothing to rearrange.
Sometimes you get a feeling
Like you need some kind of change.
No matter what the odds are this time,
Nothing's going to stand in my way.
This flame in my heart,
And a long lost friend
Gives every dark street a light at the end.

Standing tall, on the wings of my dream.
Rise and fall, on the wings of my dream.

The rain and thunder
The wind and haze
I'm bound for better days.
It's my life and my dream,
Nothing's going to stop me now.

― KSTFUNS (Ex Leon), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:08 (twenty years ago)

Balki's cousin Bartok come to visit from Mypos via Los Angeles for the last six months. Bartok looks just like Balki except after being in LA, he lost his accent and got a cool attitude, and he has a money-making scheme and tries to take Balki's money.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:08 (twenty years ago)

He tries to force someone else to do a tv show because of a mistake he made in high school? I don't get it.

― Allyzay knows a little German (allyzay), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:08 (twenty years ago)

Balki buys one share of stock in a cereal company and discovers that there isn't enough raisins in a box that they advertise. Knowing that the company is cheating the public, he decides to go to head office to complain and Larry goes with him.

A friend of mine was working as a receptionist for a talent agency for a while and said that Pinchot would stare at her breasts & hit on her any time he came in.

Hahahahahahaha I was having a conversation last night about how 80s sitcoms were really fucking stupid... and then this thread gets revived!

― Dan (Prescient!) Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 3 November 2005 16:11 (twenty years ago)

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.

the episode where larry falls asleep for days after drinking a jar of balki’s medicine is the apex of eighties sitcom art

― barreras, Friday, 22 December 2017 16:45 (eight years ago)

i was watching the first season of Newhart (80s innkeeper one) on Hulu when i had the flu and 80s sitcoms are sort of weirder than today's "weird" sitcoms in a way

one episode literally involved them learning their was a witch buried in their basement and hiring Larry Daryl and Daryl to dig up the bones so they could bury them in the church graveyard, but then Joanna decides she likes having the witch in their basement because she was wrongfully accused so they cancel the job and just keep the witch's bones in their basement

― Joan Digimon (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 22 December 2017 17:12 (eight years ago)

This was a very relatable scenario in the 80s

― Embalming is a flirty business (DJP), Friday, 22 December 2017 17:56 (eight years ago)

Nothing beats the "magic cave" episode of Punky Brewster for sheer bugfuck 80s sitcom weirdness.

And in sharing it a friend (a published playwright) makes a case

The writers of that show understood farce, which is really rare - and they could act it, which is rarer - in the beginning when the show was basically two rooms, the newspaper and the apartment, it was like a really fun play from the 30s-50s https://t.co/eUWl6i4an1

Glad to know my childhood was spent watching quality TV

― Mar - a - Lago, or 120 Days of Sodom (Boring, Maryland), Friday, 12 August 2022 18:24 (three years ago)

The episode where they make pastry that explodes unless you burp is a classic

BALKI B
BALKI B

― her pal Santa falls to the floor (Neanderthal), Monday, 9 December 2024 04:02 (one year ago)

I knew this episode was ridiculous from memory but I didn't realize how much so until I just threw it on.

He gets a contract by simply dancing in front of an exec. A week later he's cutting a video

― her pal Santa falls to the floor (Neanderthal), Monday, 9 December 2024 04:03 (one year ago)

Also the voice dubbed in was 700 times worse than Balki's

Also the music video comes out like a week after they recorded it
