Growing Pains (1985–1992)
8/10
Important All American family sitcom.
3 January 2007
Thank you Nick At Nite for re-running popular sitcoms. Particularly, family sit-coms.

"Growing Pains" truly displays the life of a family; in this case, an all American family.

To be honest, the teenagers' situations are very realistic and have the occasional and important dramatic situations.

Kirk Cameron stole the show with his on-screen charm and good looks. The boy was talented really.

Alan Thicke was also good in his role as the care loving father. Joanna Kerns and Jeremy Miller were not that important characters in my opinion but were very good. Tracey Gold also delivered a good performance but always gave me the impression that she was a sad girl.

Anyways, this is a t.v. series that is part of my childhood and will stay with many generations.

Cheesy and kitschy by today's standards but worths a watch if you have the humor to watch family sit-coms and some dramatic situations.
