    I grew up at the same time described in the series. I was the thrid child. But I could only wish I had the experiences of Kevin. While he was out growing up and learning about life, I was going to meetings and selling watchtowers and truth books preparing for the end of the world.

    My husband got me into that show in 93 when we married. What a great show, hilarious and smart and a great tribute to childhood memories. The last ep when he said soon after HS his dad died, I cry just thinking about it, makes his memories that much more pungent.

    Wonderful show, did you also like Freaks & Geeks? That was terrific.

    Yup, at least back then. I remember the Winnie situation always wondering if she would ever hook up with Kevin. They never did, did they?

    The funniest line I remember was when they invited a large chested neighbour over for dinner or whatever and there were a bowl of tomatoes on the table. "Would you look at the size of those tomatoes" someone said( could be the older goofy brother?)- just about peed myself!

    Oh yeah...I was right there at that age, at that time and those sentiments. Loved the show. Thanks for posting it, I haven't thought of it in a long time.

    I was not expecting him to say that. An ending that was well done.
