Charles in Charge (1984–1990)
One of the FINEST television sitcoms EVER!!!
27 February 2000
"Charles In Charge" has to be one of my all-time favorite TV shows. Scott Baio and Willie Aames were the ultimate team. These two guys had an obvious chemistry together, and their close friendship off screen shined in their performances on the show.

Nicole Eggert was the first girl I EVER had a "crush" on, in TV land or reality! That "crush" has never gone away either. Nicole was adorable on "Charles In Charge." She was absolutely GORGEOUS. Her smile, eyes, voice, and all-around personality made me fall in love with her from the start. She was an incredibly talented young actress. No other individual could've even come close to portraying the character "Jamie Powell" like Nicole so perfectly did.

Sarah, Adam, Aunt Lilian, Mrs. Powell, Grandpa Walter, and all the rest were great also. I really enjoyed the Pembroke family episodes (84-85) too, but the Powell family brought the show its greatest success and magic. Let's not forget about the extremely catchy theme song. It RULED!

I would do anything to hear of a "Charles In Charge Reunion" in the works. I truly miss this great show, but luckily, WGN still airs re-runs on Sunday mornings. I will complain, though, that "Charles In Charge" belongs on television DAILY, and not merely once a week. That's not enough to please its devoted fans like me. You need 5 stars for this wonderful 80's family show? I'll give you 10!!!
