That intro so epitomizes the 80s sitcom style that it almost seems like a spoof. I guess it seems like an imitation to me because I've never seen it before... never even heard of this show. Retroist, you always manage to unearth these hidden gems otherwise lost to time. Thanks!
Alyson was also a recast on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, she was not in the pilot but when the show was picked up they recast a few characters one of which was Willow, a witch.
Don't think I ever saw this show, so just watched the pilot you posted. That theme song definitely stood out, as well as the episode really having some heart. Makes me feel sad I missed it back in the day. Thanks for the great article!

I don't think I ever heard of this show! I'm defintely going to steal that Halloween ep for an October post, giving full credit here of course.
Really happy to hear that I could nudge you to the show. The Halloween episode is a great example for the show (and very on-theme).
Ha, Dex - I was thinking the same thing! 😁

Good point! And she was excellent on Buffy.
