Bustin' Loose - The Grass Isn't Greener

[@promayes8186]

I remember this show from the 80s

[@Ponokyo]

I remember being in love with Tyren Perry (Trish) when this aired. I knew for a fact that I was going to marry her. It still trips me out that Judy from Family Matters is her sister.

Vonetta McGee was fucking gorgeous 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@ebonyrushharrington2197]

She sounds like Liberty Mc Kee spell

[@DeeNice681]

‘You look like Stevie Wonder finger painted you’ ‘Have you seen your eye doctor lately’ ‘Have you seen anything lately’ Rudey and Trish the best part of the show!

[@marvinwhittaker]

This TV series could've been a success. Jimmie Walker is Dynomite!!!!

[@kappaman1994]

The Acting Here Is Terrible. The Script Is Poorly Written & Predictable, & 🌽ny! The Laugh Tracks Are EXTRA 🌽by!

[@Judah98]

Lies.

[@marvinwhittaker]

@@Judah98 how do you know. It could've been who knows.

[@DeeNice681]

You are correct, it actually wasn’t cancelled because of low ratings. It was canceled because of an incident on the set.

[@marvinwhittaker]

@@DeeNice681 what happened on set?

[@Seekimo]

Thanks

[@lorrainedavis7349]

I never heard of this this show but it’s funny 😂

[@lyndajay4407]

Sounds like the theme song is sung by Levi Stubbs of the 4 Tops.

[@promayes8186]

I think it was the guy from the four tops

[@kvinche8120]

Idk but he blowing

[@davep1103]

Yes. I just researched it. That was Levi Stubbs ( along with the other 4 Tops ) that sang the theme song.

[@katrinaholden8183]

This could've been a cute little series had they let it continue...even though this fool as anyone's foster parent is laughable 😂😂😂

[@Michelle-pn9xt]

Fool? He is an actor!

[@katrinaholden8183]

@@Michelle-pn9xt okay....I was joking it's not that deep lol

[@zt1053]

He wasn't really the foster parent the lady was. Walker's character was more of a handy man around the house but have a con arist around foster kids is still pretty outlandish.

[@katrinaholden8183]

​@@zt1053Oh...well that pretty much explains why he didn't really act like a parent to them. Lol I was born in the 90s so I don't know much about this show.

[@betterthanemril988]

Damn good times had been over 8 years atp and Jimmie looks the exact same I’m here thinking this is 1979-80

[@katrinaholden8183]

Not exactly the same lol he had gained weight

[@Michelle-pn9xt]

He does not look the same.

[@demetriusstewart7636]

1986

[@betterthanemril988]

Obviously I meant he hadn’t age people, a few pounds don’t drastically change your appearance. when I meant exact I didn’t necessarily mean that literally 🙄

[@benjaminrodriguez7356]

I've never heard of this show! When was this on (years)?

[@shaunphillips3236]

'87-'88

[@iamthatiam1618]

What in the world? this is weird seeing "J.J' on this show.

[@taiwanarnold5927]

Bustin loose 1987 series on WGN Channel Chicago came on Syndication

[@DemarilWhitaker]

Jimmie doesn't look skinny anymore.
