    The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

    The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

    Years ago, back in 1994, I didn't set out to watch this. Waiting for other stuff, with my VCR poised and ready, I encountered this. And watched some of it. Cut to the present, I am RavenGlamDVDCollector, and I am trying to recollect the pretty-girl TV shows I have seen during my life. Oh, yeah, there was a show I didn't actually watch, there was a Mom in it, she had a tennis-playing daughter and a crazy goofy boy. But what the hell was the show's name? I have to admit, I had forgotten.It took perusing through a stack of 22 year old TV guides to bring to light the name, and when found, it's kinda self- explanatory, the title is kinda unusual. Gee, Judith Light, I had forgotten about her. But even if I had seen her credited for something named PHENOM on Wikipedia, it wouldn't even have rung a bell. Fortunately the old TV Guide mentioned 'tennis-playing daughter' and my quest for anything I might have forgotten was instantly rewarded.Sadly, it's a 1.22 case, a single season, 22 episodes, =failed TV show, the execs wouldn't green-light an apparently failed TV show for DVD release, even if some people remember it fondly. There are like fourteen reviews here, 23 years later? You do the math. Life just ain't fair, this show had a lot of promise. It was head and shoulders above a slew of junk being telecast in prime-time on South African M-Net, Mondays at 18h30, but it is gone and forgotten, and that's very sad. And all my nagging is stuck here in this Lonely Outpost where few, if any, would ever visit.Not even a downloadable segment of it. It's just a vague memory now. Sigh.

    I really loved this show! I thought it was one of the best in the 90's! The sad thing is that it was canceled and has not been rebroadcast! What I don't understand we have reruns of several different TV shows but this one hasn't been thought of!How any times can we watch the Cosby Show, Full House, and many others. Don't get me wrong I love these shows too but they have had so much air time. They really need to put this on DVD and have some reruns on too. This is a show that can be watched by young children. I was a young kid when this show was on and my parents approved this wholesome and funny show for there children to watch without supervision. I just hope that they will give this show a chance to be put back on the air!

    I thought me and a friend were the only one who liked this show. I thought all girls were cute, but the thing that drew me the most was how over the top Brian Doolan was. I remember one episode where he was say how his mom walked in on him when he was REALLY enjoying a magazine's pictorial. I'm laughing right now thinking about that scene. I wish this series would be release on DVD or tape. I would buy it. Or re-broadcast

    This was an awesome sitcom. If I had realized how short lived it would be at the time that it was on I would have gone to great pains to tape them all. As it is I only have two or three. It was just really well done: creative premise, very funny script, good actors, etc. > And if you ever get a chance to watch any of this great show, take it because you won't regret it! I am really surprised that some of the actors didn't go on to bigger things. I looked over their credits and they really have not done much since...except the aforementioned spots on Jerry McGuire, which I was pretty excited about when I saw :-). The little girl (Mary Margaret) especially was very good...so maybe she will pop up again somewhere. Anyway, I guess that is all. This was just a GREAT show.
