at least through season 4, or maybe 5. But like all TV shows, the writers reached exhaustion, the show experienced unplanned character changes and absences. You wonder at the end of some series if it just wasn't all about cost cutting to completion.

Thanks for the heads up on YouTube. Not sure the benefits of episode revisits more than 30 years ago, but at least they get more spotlight.

It's debut over 2 summers were magical. You couldn't write it today. The Satellite Dish was the newest and biggest thing in town. Rick got hit by a satellite, Shelly and her friend Cindy had a historic fight. You couldn't believe what was said and acted in an era of innocence.
