The UNTOLD Story of Perfect Strangers | Did Bronson & Mark Really Get Along? Why Was It Canceled?

[@whatupgigi]

“Don't be ridiculous” 😂 was one of my favorite lines said by Balki

[@shanclay]

😂

[@raven4152001]

I always loved Larry's "I have... A plan". Especially as the series went on and Balki would say "oh God" in the pause of Larry's line. " I have... (Oh God) A plan". 😄

[@Rockhead84]

Great show. Balki was hilarious. Crazy what a ripple effect this show had: helped to launch TGIF AND spun off to Family Matters

[@lexkanyima2195]

Well as 3 years it was a big build up

[@KevinPayton-fq8gd]

TGIF in the late 1980's through the 1990's was awesome.

[@missladyanonymity]

Those 80s and 90s sitcom these songs were amazing!

[@harveymcelroy9332]

This was a underrated show,can u do a mr Belvedere plz

Perfect strangers was a staple of my childhood. I miss those days.

Yes! This was my show back in the day

I'm loving these deep dives on sitcoms and dramas. Thank you Juicy Pop for all your hard work 😊

[@Jamessmith-xk3fh]

I couldn't imagine Louie Anderson as Larry

[@lilliedoubleyou3865]

One of my first memories of ANYTHING was watching "Perfect Stranger" from my high chair and calling it "The Balki Show," but apparently I couldn't say 'Balki' so I called it the 'Bow-key Show.'

[@kirkindog]

I remember seeing "Beverly Hills Cop" when it first came out in 1984 and its star, a young Eddie Murphy, was a tour de force in it. However, Bronson Pinchot as, "Serge," actually stole that scene with Murphy. I think that was the blueprint for his "Balki" character on "Perfect Strangers."

[@OswaldBatesIIIEsq]

The "Perfect Strangers" theme was my ringtone once upon a time.

Great story on Perfect Strangers

[@gmcneoplan84]

All these years (since the 1990s) I didn't know the reason why they showed the Winslows riding their bikes across that bridge in the opening credits. Turns out that was a homage to Perfect Strangers, the show they were spun off from. Thanks Juicy Pop for that information starting at 10:08.

[@thewrongascendancy]

I vaguely remember this show! It came out when I was a baby, but it was still running when I was in grade school. My older relatives used to sing the theme song a lot. This is another one I need to watch. Thanks for the cool videos! Keep them coming! 😀

@@JuicyPopEntertainment Actually Bronson Pinchot and Mark Linn Baker did shoot a scene for the Family Matters pilot crossover. It was a phone call but it got cut and wasn't shown in the episode. ☎🤗📺🎬

I've been loving your channel since the beginning, and you're doing a great job. Keep it going! Can I also make a request for TV shows? Can you guys do some episodes on some of the Aaron Spelling dramas such as Charlie's Angels, Dynasty, Melrose Place, and Charmed? I would love to hear your perspective about those shows.

The best thing about perfect strangers is that it gave birth to Family Matters

[@varianeng9668]

I see your point but I respectfully disagree. Family matters is good but I still enjoy the theme song for Perfect Strangers to this day and love it soooo much.

[@GMANKOOL23]

This was well thought out and executed perfectly . I also enjoyed your video on Hangin With Mr Cooper !!!

[@twistedfenderchick]

I remember Bronson being EXTRA handsy on the Surreal Life. Look up the episode with Dickinson. She eventually had to tell him that she was molested To get him to stop touching her. So I absolutely believe the actress who spoke up about him sexually harassing her.

[@EFunkRock]

So where was #timesup and #metoo when this happened?

[@JuicyPopEntertainment]

Ewww. That's unfortunate.

[@taureanmay1411]

​@@JuicyPopEntertainment0:34 so do I.

[@writeralbertlanier3434]

Pinchot admitted In interviews that he didnt much care for imput from guest directors while working on Perfect Strangers. He was pretty much insistent on. Just doing the character his way. As for what one of the cast members stated in the video, i hadnt heard anything about that. If true, it sounds disturbing

[@nadiaroberts9857]

It was the dance of joy for me.. miss that show #Netflix #paramountplus #hulu.. is show streamed yet lol

[@chrisspearline767]

The pilot episode is hilarious a 40 year old man finally decides to leave home because he needs space from all of his siblings. Then a man shows up to his new apartment upon his arrival from a far country claiming he's a distant relative. Larry is convinced they're related and let's him move in with him

I loved Perfect Strangers and I liked Family Matters until it was taken over by Steve Urkel. I wish Family Matters could’ve stayed what it was before it became all about that character. That is probably the reason I like Perfect Strangers more cuz it pretty much stayed the same throughout its run and no one character became the focal point of the show.

[@lexkanyima2195]

But Harriet at that time really lacks the atmosphere of The Winslows, Urkel save the show's decline.

[@patrickmaruniak5987]

You're a moron! Family Matters was dull until Steve Urkel came on there. That was the best decision they ever made putting Steve Urkel on there. I don't think the show would have lasted as long as it did if they wouldn't have put him on there.
