Small Wonder (1985–1989)
7/10
not bad
1 October 2017
i just saw an episode and it surprisingly holds up. the humor is there, a classic formula for comedy, based on setup and payoff that strangely feels refreshing in the current age of television, despite the canned laughs - this is no big bang theory, the laugh track is not merely masking the show's shortcomings, but - like a drummer, seem to be used to accentuate the punchline. at the end of the day it is no masterpiece, the parents are awfully awkward, but the kid actors are great. especially the episodes where you get to see vicky at school. the show accomplishes everything it sets out to do and then some. i recommend wasting time with this instead of reality television
