Molloy - S1E2 "Surprise" - Staring Mayim Bialik, Jennifer Aniston (Fox Sitcom - 1990)

Molloy is an American sitcom television series that aired on Fox from July 25, 1990, until August 15, 1990. It starred Mayim Bialik as a carefree Los Angeles-native preteen girl, whose life is turned upside down when her mother dies and her divorced father moves her to New York upon remarrying. Only 4 of the 7 episodes shot were ever aired.
On July 5, 1990, two weeks before Fox's premiere of Molloy, NBC aired the Blossom special to high ratings. With both projects riding on each other's misfortune for survival, it was up to the Fox series to do well-which it didn't. After lackluster ratings in its tryout run, Fox cancelled Molloy with two unaired episodes. The cancellation of Molloy then allowed the NBC the option to put Blossom into production as a regular series, where it ran for 5 seasons.

This is proof that there is universal tethering to Destiny seeing as both Jen and Mayim ended up becoming part of the most popular tv sitcoms in the world

[@shellymilligan2953]

No it’s about having family ties to Hollywood. They’re both awesome though!

[@jonasabry9099]

Thanks for Posting this. My family helped out on this TV Show.

[@jeansaunders8814]

I don't even recognise Jennifer Aniston

[@jgweems]

This is my first time ever seeing or hearing about this show.

[@naldy21b]

Wow... Dr. John sang the theme songs to both Blossom and Molloy... 😎😉

[@GIRL-cv5py]

yep, i guess so.

[@russkate88]

He must love singing

[@RoseRose-hp4rq]

I remember watching one or two episodes randomly of this show when I was a kid. Then later, seeing blossom in that show… My child mine could not understand how she changed names and families. I was too dumb to understand how television worked 🤣

[@sondrabuckley4487]

Blossom and Rachel is that both you

[@JasonDelarosa2000]

So both Mayim and Jennifer started at FOX?

[@jadedheartsz]

Yeah, Jennifer was also in that Ferris Buehler TV show that came out the same year.

[@marcesgo30]

So this what Rachel was like as a teenager

[@johnnybravado7141]

Yep she took on Blossom, Punky Brewster, and Kelly Bundy.

[@SAMEntalhealth]

Watch the first Leprechaun movie😅😅 you'll see Jennifer at her finest😅😅😅

[@russkate88]

She would have been 20-21 at the time.

[@Zett76]

She was... just like Rachel.

[@doggietreats67]

how does jennifer aniston go from being a teenager to a 25 yo in 4 years?

[@ricka7747]

Thank you for posting - been wanting to see a full episode for quite some time. This was a fun show to watch when it first aired.

[@wandertree]

Wow, this is awful.

[@stephenmarkey6783]

Who could remember this show?there were only two episodes.I had this on vhs and I watched it several times.Different Era in television.Hmmmmm, I wonder which Molly Ringwald movie could have possibly influenced this plot line?Gee,that's a mystery for practically nobody

[@wellIdiditagain]

It had 7 episodes 1 unaired, because Blossom did better.

[@marystrenke3050]

Delightful 😊

[@paparazzi85]

@@wellIdiditagain 2 unaired

[@laurad324]

7 eps

[@inbar112]

thank you for this! any chance you have the other episodes?

[@russkate88]

Jennifer Aniston looks like she just popped out of the eighties.

[@tessie7e777]

She did- It was 1990. We didn’t suddenly change our looks on January 1st of 1990.

[@russkate88]

@@tessie7e777 exactly. It takes about three years for a decade to establish its own identity. So by 1993 was when we were fully in the nineties.

[@brittney5903]

1989 - she was 20 years old.

[@SAMEntalhealth]

I mean look at her in the leprechaun too😅

[@saul_goodman15]

wait , this is 1990 , why does she look so young ?

[@hitomihonda7573]

Back when Hollywood, California & Beverly Hills looked cool. Now it sux

[@mbleroy99]

Dad: omg why would Molloy run away?????? Molloy: *sleeps on couch for a month*

[@sha11235]

This has been on here already. I thought this was the pilot.

[@Physics072]

OMG the show was horrible terrible acting and writing.

[@marionsutcliffe1119]

I cringe for the actors given these lines.

[@russkate88]

I have to agree. But it's good to see Jennifer Aniston in a role before Friends.

[@Zett76]

And the water faucets were always running! Very annoying.

[@doggietreats67]

isn't that music similar to the music from Blossom?

[@wellIdiditagain]

Never heard of this show.

[@russkate88]

Neither have I

[@3xcalibur23_Music]

She acted too hyper

[@Mnt2beeblebee]

I feel like I can hear sexual innuendos in literally every scene. It’s everywhere

[@CPTM1]

Wasn't Schwimmer in that blossom show with her for an episode or two also?

[@russkate88]

​@alternateName600 he was only 26. Hardly a significant age difference

[@heroicnonsense]

@@russkate88 David's character's name was Sonny, and Sonny was 26 years old. Six was 16 at the time though (both ages according to the script of the episode in question). Which is why everybody objected to the relationship. Well everybody except for Six and Sonny of course. The episode is season 4, episode 7 of Blossom, titled "Six and Sonny" and can be found here on KZbin with this information.

[@lovelife2day]

funny....her name is Courtney in this show and years later becomes best friends with a Courtney

[@russkate88]

What a coincidence

[@shreemz]

At what mark is Jennifer Aniston?

[@Gieszkanne]

Many

[@SnazzyDetritus]

Now that is just truly lazy....the video is only 22 minutes long. You will have to gather the energy to skim through the video.

[@russkate88]

Watch it for yourself and find out.

[@P4r4m0r34ever]

LOL “Mother my mousse is missing!” The delivery of Anniston is so on brand!😂

[@tamarameszaros784]

Looks like blossom unto no??

[@quitsevensix]

Isn't that the same kid from the Wizard

[@Mike-Ro-Phone]

Do you mean the one who played Molloy's little stepbrother? Yes.

[@quitsevensix]

@@Mike-Ro-Phone Oic thx

[@Mike-Ro-Phone]

@@quitsevensixYou are most welcome.

[@joeriveracomedy]

Makes one wonder if there was a Weinstein in Blossom or Monica's corner

[@Alamander81]

They really got Randy Newman to do both theme songs

[@heroicnonsense]

Close... Dr. John did both themes.
