Originally Posted By TALL Disney Guy ^^^lol I confess, I am at least relieved that no other shows Ursula listed are in my heart.

I also confess I watched every single episode of "Small Wonder" that is uploaded on YouTube. I confess sometimes I am a glutton for punishment, and the show is such a train wreck I had a sick desire to see as much of it online as I could (I need help). I confess 2oony, just because you were scarred by "The Facts of Life", you didn't have to give up so easily on 80s sitcoms. ;-) I further confess I love sitcoms from every decade, most notably the 80s because of childhood nostalgia and families I wanted to live with in those shows. I confess "The Mary Tyler Moore" is my idea of the Golden Sitcom of the 70s. (Psst, Deb, I confess confessing your love of "Mama's Family" doesn't let you off the hook about the whole wanting-to-smash-Ursula's-TV-over-"Mr. Belvedere"-thing) I confess I always daydreamt of having my very own Mr. Belvedere and Mrs. Garrett to keep my life straightened out and offer warm advice and make me good food and be wonderful mentor figures...*sigh*... (I confess, yes, my parents fed me good food, but you know how it is with TV characters you just love)

Originally Posted By TALL Disney Guy I confess, it was really cool to grow up with an older sister and both of you watching TV shows where you could identify with characters in your own age range.

Originally Posted By TALL Disney Guy I confess I bought that with Christmas money last year, and was sad that season 2 had not been released. ;-) I confess I do not think "Who's the Boss?" was one of the best-written shows, but some of the storylines were very interesting. I confess I wonder why, as wealthy as Angela Bower was, she didn't get more attractive glasses and keep her black roots touched up under her blonde hair. I confess I might be colored by nostalgia a great deal on some of my choices of favorite 80s shows. I finally confess that I accidentally got an autographed photo of Carol Burnett last year, but I kept it anyway.

Sometimes I think growing old gracefully is the best way. Now that I think about it didn't Carol Burnett do the same thing? Oh well, not everyone can be blessed with the ability to remain the same age forever and I should be a little more forgiving. It just seems that when you have had your skin pulled so tight you have to place your head between your knees in an attempt to find enough loose skin to blink your eyes, someone has carried it a step to far. And that's my confession.
