Of all the 80’s nostalgia, this is the one that strikes the chord. This show was everything - all versions of it, but the Sandy era was true magic. I remember I even entered a contest where they were re-naming the show after Valerie’s Family. They gave 3 options, and I chose Hogan Family. Can’t remember what I won for that. If this or Danger Bay ever gets released on DVD, I’m gonna flip out.

I remember this show. I thought Jason Bateman was going to be the next Michael J Fox especially since he was Teen Wolf Too and MJF was Teen Wolf. I never realized Roberta Flack sang the theme.

[@robinorlowski2449]

The first one wasn't a big hit but it was released around the time of the first Back to the Future movie. And it did get a cartoon made out of it. They have one episode with Todd Howard (neither Bateman nor Fox were involved in the cartoon)l. No additional cartoon episodes were made with Todd Howard beyond that one. They also never made a cartoon version of the Hogan Family either whereas they did with other shows like Alf.

[@aaronflowers8881]

@@robinorlowski2449 I remember the Teen Wolf cartoon. I used to watch it around 1986-87. I liked Teen Wolf more than Back to the future. Teen Wolf was the first Michael J Fox movie I saw. It was such a cool, 80s movies. Basketball and werewolves.

[@robinorlowski2449]

@@aaronflowers8881 the cartoon was actually better than the live action movie--Chubs and Scott are not jocks. I figured they did other competitive things like Debate, academic competitions. Two movies Fox was in were made into cartoons. This and Back to the Future. This one ran for two seasons even though there were no toys for the cartoon. Cartoons were basically advertisements for toys. I'm sure if Teen Wolf Too had done as well as the first movie, Todd Howard would have been a reoccurring character in the cartoon.

She and Edie McClurg(Mrs Poole) saved this show and allowed it to have a few more seasons. I watched this every Monday as a kid growing up and love this theme song.

It was really because of Jason Bateman. He had become the real star of the show even when Harper was still on it. NBC probably would not have continued the show had it not been for Bateman.
