Anyone remember this show?

Let me refresh your memory...

You gotta love that theme song!
I remember watching this in the late 80's. I think the only reason I watched it was because I thought Staci Keanan was hot. She & I would've been around the same age when this show was on the air.
It aired from 1987-1990. Quite a short run for a TV sitcom.
I remember some episodes being very funny and some that were downright terrible.
Wasn't the premise of the show something like...they weren't sure which dad was the real father so they both raised her? There was also a main character who played a court judge.

I don't remember a whole lot from the show.
How about you?

Giovannie Ribisi was in that show? He's one of my top 10 actors.

what was the name of their hangout? kluwickis?

I loved this show. A spinoff of Night Court. The court judge was Florence Stanley, who appeared on this and Night Court.

I remember Dick Butkus for some reason being around. I think he owned the local hangout.

I recall watching that show. Even back then, Paul Reiser annoyed me.

Reiser has always been annoying. Mad Abou You only intensified this quality.

Ha.

Funny thing is, they actually did that on the show. But, we never found out who the father was. The girl had them tested, but the judge got the results, read them, and threw them out before the fathers found out. Which seems kinda unethical actually.

Actually I think it would be...

Well, lets just say the relationship between the title characters would be different.

I used to watch this show because the main actress was a couple of years older than me and really cute. My mom didn't like me watching the show because she thought it displayed poor family values or something. I guess she thought the girl's mom must have been a whore or something.

I'm set to direct "My Two DEAD Dads"

I'm surprised none of them were horribly burned and scarred from wearing all that acid-washed denim.
