[net.tv] Growing Pains

Did anyone see the premiere of 'Growing Pains' last Tuesday?
I thought it wasn't bad.
Did anyone notice that the show opened with Joanna Kerns humming the
theme from 'Who's The Boss?', the show that precedes it?
I thought that was a cute touch.
It reminds me of the premiere of 'Blue Thunder' where,
during a scene near the beginning of the show set in a cemetary,
you see a tombstone which has the name 'Benson Webster' on it,
those being the names of the two shows that preceded it that night.
Someone at ABC has a strange sense of humor.

By the way, I watch a fair number of ABC shows.
I don't understand all the negative reaction on the net towards this
network.  The one ABC show that you seem to like is 'Moonlighting' which
I don't watch at all for two reasons.  First, I thought 'Hart To Hart'
was one of the best shows on the air and was deeply upset when it
was cancelled.  I don't think I'll like any show that ABC decides to
show at 10pm on Tuesdays from now on ('Moonlighting' started there).
Also, I find Bruce Willis' character very annoying.  He gets on my
nerves and I just find it difficult to watch a character this arrogant.
