Yes I remember and I loved Gary Coleman's character. Too funny, this show was.

I remember that show.  Does anyone remember that Janet Jackson was a sometimes cast member?  I think she played Willis' girlfriend.

I remember the show, but not Janet's guest appearances.  I remember the set, but not much else.  Mostly I remember that there was a lot of controversy around Gary Coleman afterwards.  I just saw him in a star-studded, wacky comedy recently, but it wasn't very memorable.

Yep, I remember it, would watch it once in while not all the time though.  Seen where the guy that played that dad just died.

Hi,

Yes, I loved this show and it was very funny. Gary Coleman was the funniest especially when he said "what u talking bout Willis?", lol, lol. I thought the show had great chemistry amongst the cast members. It, also, addressed the issues of race and having a show that full of diversity was both an eye-opener  ::) and some form of progress for racial relations  :)  :). Having black and whites live in the same household doing this period was a historical moment for tv KUDOS!
