This time around we have a 1991 TV Guide ad for a syndicated showing of the episode The Pen Pal as our Photo of the Week. And we have added the TV Guide description for the fourth season episode Up a Lazy River, Part Two.  And finally we have added another original ABC network commercial for the third season episode The Defiant Guys to our YouTube Channel.  Blow my mind, why don't you?

May 28, 2013 - Hello again, fellow Cousins!  We're still on our semi-hiatus, but fortunately our talented fan fiction authors are NOT and this week we have two, yes, TWO new fan fictions for you to enjoy!  First is another entry into Cousin Whitney's Kelsey stories with the spooky little tale, Spellbound, in which strange things occur after Kelsey and Balki start to watch a scary horror movie together!  And then we have the continuing Bianca story from Cousin Aurora entitled Ghosts in the Machine, and I'm sure you'll agree it's a heart-wrenching, dramatic entry into that series!  Thank you to both Cousins Aurora and Whitney for sharing their amazing creativity with us!  Also this week we have an original season two TV Guide ad for the series as our Photo of the Week.  We've also added the TV Guide description to the fourth season episode Aliens.  And we have added another original ABC network commercial for the classic third season episode Pipe Dreams to our YouTube Channel, this one for a special airing of the episode on a Tuesday night in the summer of 1988 (in which they promised to run Perfect Strangers twice a week for the whole summer, but I seem to recall this didn't actually last the entire summer.)  Thanks for checking in with us each week, Cousins, we appreciate it!

May 21, 2013 - Welcome back, Cousins!  This week we're bringing you an original TV Guide ad for the episode Citizenship, Part One as our Photo of the Week.  We've also added the TV Guide description to the fourth season episode Assertive Training.  And we have added an original ABC network commercial for the classic third season episode Pipe Dreams to our YouTube Channel.  Get out of the city!

May 14, 2013 - Well, pad my breasts and call me Mama!  We hope everyone enjoyed a nice Mother's Day this past weekend.  This week we're bringing you a very cute publicity still of Bronson and Mark as our Photo of the Week.  And we have added the TV Guide description for the fourth season opener The Lottery.  We have also added a short article from Star Magazine circa 1987 about celebrities and the colas they were endorsing at the time to our Articles section.  And finally we have added another original ABC network commercial for the third season episode Better Shop Around to our YouTube Channel.  And in closing, let's not forget to wish Bronson a very Happy Birthday on May 20th!

May 7, 2013 - Welcome, Cousins, to another week of somewhat abbreviated updates, but we hope we still have some fun things worth your while!  First, we have added a scan of one of the original filming admission tickets from 1987 as our Photo of the Week.  We have also added the TV Guide description to the third season episode Up a Lazy River, Part One.  And we have also added a very brief article (or at least a description) of Bronson's 1993 series The Trouble With Larry to our Articles section.  And you will also find another original ABC network commercial for the series, specifically the third season episode Better Shop Around, on our YouTube Channel.  See you next week, Cousins!

April 9, 2013 - Welcome back, Cousins!  This week we're continuing with our abbreviated updates but at least this week we're pleased to be able to bring you the latest fan fiction from Cousin Aurora Lenore entitled Time for Trouble!  Bianca is back and finds herself in unexpected danger, which sets off a string of events that not only brings Larry and Balki back into her life but some other odd (and strangely familiar) characters as well!  It's a really exciting read you won't want to miss, Cousins!  We have also added a new Photo of the Week of Mark as Larry Appleton, and we have also added the TV Guide descriptions for the season seven episodes Fright Night and Dimitri's World.  And we have added the original ABC network commercial for the third season episode To Be or Not To Be to our YouTube Channel.  Tag you again next week, Cousins!  Boochi, boochi, boochi!

April 2, 2013 - Well, coat me in chocolate and call me Hershey!  We hope all of you who were able to attend Bronson's appearance at the The American Music and Pop Culture Expo last weekend had a good time!  We hope there was good weather for the convention, but we really can't tell since Bronson took over the Fox Channel 43 weather report, and we have the link to the extended version of that segment on our News page!  We're back with a few more updates this week, including a brand new Cousins Gallery page featuring the incredibly clever and original artwork of Cousin May!  Definitely check out her adorable drawings of Balki, Larry, Jennifer and Mary Anne!  And thank you, Cousin May, for allowing us to share your P.S. related artwork with everyone here!  We also have a picture from the sixth season episode The Break Up as our Photo of the Week.  We've also added the TV Guide descriptions to the season seven episode Bachelor Party and Weekend at Ferdinand's.  Plus we have added another network commercial for the season three episode The Break In to our YouTube Channel.  Thanks for continuing to check in with us each week, Cousins, we appreciate it!

March 26, 2013 - Hi, Cousins, it's so nice to have you back again this week!  We're thrilled to have a brand new, fabulous bit of whimsical artwork from Cousin Crystal to share with you this week!  It's an adorable drawing of Mary Anne which we've added Cousin Crystal Hill's Gallery Page, so be sure to scroll down to the second from last picture to see this wonderful bit of magic from one of our most creative Cousins!  This time around we have a really nice publicity photo of Bronson as our Photo of the Week.  And we have added a short blurb from a 1987 TV Guide about Bronson's appearance in Muppet Magazine that we've added to our Articles section.  We have also added the TV Guide descriptions for the episodes Picture This and Hello, Baby.  And we also have added an original ABC Network commercial for the season three episode The Break In to our YouTube Channel.  Thanks for hanging in there with us during our semi-hiatus, we appreciate it!  Boochi, boochi, boochi!

March 19, 2013 - Welcome, Cousins.  We have made the decision to take a semi-hiatus from this website for some time.  So what does this mean?  It means that we'll still be posting some new stuff for you every week, but these updates will be less than we've previously been providing, at least for a short time.  This is so we can redesign, regroup and reorganize the website, which we hope to be able to accomplish by April or May.  This week we're bringing you a brand new Photo of the Week.  But you'll notice some changes to our What's On Television? page.  We've embedded links from Locate TV on the site (which is where we've been getting the listening information from anyway) which you can click on to find all the upcoming appearances of your favorite PS actors.  This way the information will always be kept up to date, not just updated once a week (and will save us a whole lot of work, too!)  Also this week we've added the TV Guide Descriptions for the episodes Tenspeed and Soft Touch and Up on a Roof.  And we'll still be adding a new YouTube video each week when possible . . . this week it's a network commercial for the season three episode Couch Potato.  We won't be maintaining the weekly interactive discussions on our Forums, although both the Forums and Facebook pages will still be very much active and open for business!  And also if anyone has a Fan Fiction to add to the site, you can still e-mail it to us and we'll make sure it gets posted!  And we'll also be sure to keep up with any important current news, which we'll continue to post both on the site and on Facebook as well as on the site.  For instance, this week we've learned that season one of The Bronson Pinchot Project is available to view on Hulu.com, and you can visit our News page for more information!  So rest assured that we'll do our best to fulfill your recommended weekly Perfect Strangers requirements while we restructure our work here!  Thanks to everyone for your patience, understanding, and continuing support!

March 12, 2013 - Hi (in stereo!)  Welcome to the website that guarantees 100 raisins in every box . . . no wait, that's the Raisin "Poofs" promise.  What we promise is a healthy dose of Perfect Strangers goodness every week!  So let's get started with a brand new Photo of the Week and totally updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  You'll also find a photo of Rebeca Arthur (who happens to be celebrating a birthday this week!) and her poodle Emmy from an unknown publication in our Articles section.  Plus we have now added the TV Guide descriptions for the episodes Dog Gone Blues and Citizenship, Part Two to our Episode Guide.  And we have added a network commercial for the season three episode Future Shock to our YouTube Channel.  The episode we will be discussing on our Weekly Episode Discussion board over at our Forums will be the season two episode, Can I Get a Witness?  (Where are the Halls of Montezuma?)  And finally, for our Forum's Topic of the Week we'd like for you to ponder the following question: What period marks the high point of the series to you?  The absolute pinnacle of the series?  We're thinking a period of specific episodes, not necessarily a full season but five to ten episodes back to back which you felt were really solid.  Think about it and give us your answers, Cousins!  See you next week!

March 5, 2013 - Anyone have plans to attend The American Music and Pop Culture Expo in Hershey, PA the weekend of March 29th?  A reminder that Bronson Pinchot will be appearing there to sign autographs!  More information on this event can be found on our News page.  Now strap yourselves up for a new week of updates, Cousins, including a brand new Photo of the Week plus completely updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  And we have now added the TV Guide descriptions for the episodes Great Balls of Fire and See You in September.  We have also added a brief article about Mark Linn-Baker from a 1992 edition of The Star-Ledger to our Articles section.  And we have added a network commercial for the season three episode Night School Confidential to our YouTube Channel as well!  The episode we will be discussing on our Weekly Episode Discussion board over at our Forums will be the season two episode, Ladies and Germs  (have you had little people fighting up your nose this cold and flu season?)  And finally, for our Forum's Topic of the Week we'd like to ask everyone this question: If you were stranded on a deserted island and could only have three PS episodes to watch over and over again, which three would you choose and why?  Now go on with you!

February 26, 2013 - Here we are with our last post . . . of February!  Got you!  Cousins should joke more!  Or maybe not!  Seriously we're happy to be back with yet another week of updates, including a brand new Photo of the Week plus completely updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added a much less than stellar review of The Langoliers from USA Today to our Articles section (remember we don't agree in the slightest with these reviews, well, maybe a little bit about the special effects, but not about Bronson's performance, certainly!)  Also we have added yet a second ABC network commercial for the third season episode The Karate Kids to our YouTube Channel.  The episode we will be discussing on our Weekly Episode Discussion board over at our Forums will be the second season episode, Babes in Babylon  (Uncle Pete!)  And finally our Forum's Topic of the Week is this: Do you think Mark Linn-Baker should do a reality show about his work on Broadway and with the New York Stage and Film Company?  Not that there's any chance of him doing any such thing, but at least we can put it out there!  See you next time, Cousins!

February 19, 2013 - Happy President's Day, one day late, Cousins!  Let's not forget to honor our forefathers who worked very hard to create our country, and undoubtedly got very tired while doing it (as Balki said, that's why George Washington slept everywhere.)  This week we're excited to tell you about another upcoming convention appearance Bronson will be making at the end of March at The American Music and Pop Culture Expo in Hershey, PA!  You can find out all about this on our News page (and thanks to Cousin Stuart on our Facebook group for the heads up about this!)   We are also bringing you our usual batch of updates, including a brand new Photo of the Week plus completely updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added an article about the stage play Laughter on the 23rd Floor in which Mark appeared in 1993 from the New York Times to our Articles section.  And we have added yet another ABC network commercial, this time for the episode The Karate Kids to our YouTube Channel.  The episode we will be discussing on our Weekly Episode Discussion board over at our Forums will be the second season episode, The Unnatural  (Make sure there are no lamps nearby when you decide to practice baseball indoors!)  And finally our Forum's Topic of the Week poses this burning question: If you could have been included as a character in any episode of Perfect Strangers, which episode would you have chosen to be in and how would you have participated or otherwise changed the course of what happened?  Get creative, Cousins, and we'll see you again next week!

February 12, 2013 - Well, tap my typewriter and call me Feathertouch control!  We are very excited to announce the addition of another fan fiction, this one from Cousin Aurora Lenore, who first posted her story, Larry and Balki's Egg-cellent Adventure on her blog, but was very kind in giving us permission to reprint it in its entirety here in our Fan Fiction section!  She promises more fan fiction to come, as does Cousin Whitney, who submitted her new story last week, so I know we're all excited to have some new stories to read!  Much thanks to both Cousins for their prolific ventures which we all get to enjoy!  We also have our usual updates this week, including a brand new Photo of the Week plus completely updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added a 1982 review of My Favorite Year from Film Collector's World to our Articles section.  And we've added yet another version of an ABC network commercial for the episode The Horn Blows at Midnight to our YouTube Channel.  The episode we will be discussing on our Weekly Episode Discussion board over at our Forums will be the first episode of the second season, Hello, Baby.  Make sure you're not lying on the hot side of the bed!  And finally our Forum's Topic of the Week comes from Cousin Whitney, who would like to ask everyone: If you had the opportunity to meet Bronson or Mark and were given the whole day to spend time with them, what would you do?  Give us your answers and we'll see you next week!!

February 5, 2013 - We're hoping that this week finds all of our Cousins with their knees intact after the SuperBowl (you didn't place any reckless bets, did you?  Well, of course not!  Don't be ridiculous!)  We can't promise to match the excitement of the big game, but we can promise some new updates, including a brand new fan fiction from Cousin Whitney's second fan fiction entitled The Untitled Project of Mypos.  We know you'll enjoy reading her latest story, Cousins!!  Thanks so much for submitting your story, Cousin Whit!  And you'll find out usual updates, including a new Photo of the Week plus newly updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  We've also added an (unfortunately) not so positive review of the play Bronson did back in 1990 called Zoya's Apartment from the Daily News to our Articles section (note that we add these kind of reviews strictly for informational purposes, since they include background on the productions themselves.)  And we have added yet another network television commercial, this time for the season three episode The Horn Blows at Midnight to our YouTube Channel.  The episode we will be discussing the last episode of the first season, Happy Birthday, Baby, on our Weekly Episode Discussion board over at our Forums.  Don't forget the crullers!  And finally, the question we are asking for our Forum's Topic of the Week is this: Who would you rather invite to your holiday party?  Mr. Twinkacetti or Mr. Gorpley?  And why?  Now go on with you!

January 29, 2013 - Hello, Cousins!  We hope you are managing to keep warm this winter (don't forget to test your fireplaces for the ideal temperature . . . yes, we know you have probably used Larry Appleton's method for this at some time or another!)  Let us warm your hearts with our weekly updates, including a brand new Photo of the Week plus newly updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added an article from an unknown publication about Rebeca Arthur hosting A&E's An Evening at the Improv to our Articles section.  We have also added another network television commercial for the season three episode Your Cheatin' Heart to our YouTube Channel.  The episode we will be discussing on our Weekly Episode Discussion board over at our Forums this week will be season one episode Baby, You Can Drive My Car.  (And don't forget that the grapefruit is the brake!  But then, who doesn't know that?)  And finally, for our Forum's Topic of the Week we pose this question: Which of Cousin Larry's snow jobs was your particular favorite, and why?  Thanks, Cousins, and we'll see you again next week!

January 22, 2013 - Well, save my doors and call me salvage!  We're sure all of you are enjoying the second season of The Bronson Pinchot Project so far!  As we await next week's episode, let us attempt to entertain you with some updates, including a brand new Photo of the Week, plus updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  And we've added a short article from USA Today in 1991 which talks about The Gazebo episode of Perfect Strangers to our Articles section.  And we have added a television commercial for the season three episode Your Cheatin' Heart to our YouTube Channel.  For our Weekly Episode Discussion on our Forum this week we'll be talking about the series third episode First Date.  Don't point!  And for our Forum's Topic of the Week we are offering up this question: If you were able to sample a Myposian delicacy, which one would you choose to try?  I think I'm safe in saying that we'd all like to sample a bibbibabka if we had the chance, but do any of our Cousins have more adventurous palettes?  Let us know!

January 15, 2013 - Welcome back, Cousins!  Have you made yourselves ready for another week of updates?  Well of course you have, don't be . . . well, you know the rest!  The second season of The Bronson Pinchot Project debuted on the DIY Network this past weekend and Cousin Missy found a new Q&A interview with Bronson for TV First Look.com's website which we have linked on our News page.  Thanks Missy for finding that for us!  You'll also find news about Mark's recent marriage to Christa Justus (something we normally don't share is personal news about the actors, but this is such a sweet story we couldn't resist!  And we figure you can't get much more public than the New York Times already!)  In addition to these stories we have our usual updates, including a brand new Photo of the Week, plus updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added a snippet of an Article from an unknown publication in which Bronson gives his opinion on what fans can sometimes act like (this was back in the 80's at the height of his career, mind you!)  And we have added an ABC network commercial for a third version of a television commercial for the season three episode Taking Stock to our YouTube Channel.  For our Weekly Episode Discussion on our Forum this week we'll be talking about the series second episode Picture This.  How can you say no to that?  And for our Forum's Topic of the Week we ask this question: If you could pick any season to be released in its entirety on DVD next, and you knew there would be no further releases ever, which season would you choose?  We're curious to see what you have to say about it, Cousins!  See you on Facebook and the Forums!

January 8, 2013 - Are you ready for the debut of season two of The Bronson Pinchot Project, Cousins?  This Saturday we can once again step into Bronson's world when his show returns to the Do It Yourself Network!  For more information and links to Bronson's interactive sites online, visit our News page.  And in the meantime we'll try to entertain you with our latest updates, including a brand new Photo of the Week, plus completely updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added a photograph from an unknown publication which shows Bronson at an event and having his picture taken with Lorna Luft.  We have also added an ABC network commercial for a third version of a television commercial for the season three episode Sexual Harassment in Chicago to our YouTube Channel.  For our Weekly Episode Discussion on our Forum this week, we're going to start at the very beginning with the premiere episode Knock, Knock . . . Who's There?  Po-tah-to crumbs, anyone?  And while you're at our Forums telling us what you think of the show's debut episode, why not take a moment and answer our Topic of the Week, which is this: What would you do if a stranger showed up on your doorstep claiming to be a relative and looking for a place to stay?  We look forward to hearing your answers, Cousins!

January 1, 2013 - Happy New Year, Cousins!  We really hope 2013 will be a wonderful year for each and every one of you!  And we're anxiously awaiting the return of The Bronson Pinchot Project to the DIY Network on January 12th!  In the meantime, let's start the year off right with some updates, including a brand new Photo of the Week, plus completely updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added a small blurb from one of People Magazine's best and worst dress lists from year's end 1986 about Bronson (just to show how the media, more often than not, just really didn't get it.)  We have added an ABC network commercial for a third version of a television commercial for the season three episode Weigh to Go, Buddy to our YouTube Channel.  And we're pleased to announce the return of our Weekly Episode Discussion to our Forum!  We'll be going back and doing the episodes which were previously done on our original forums, but we will begin with the season six episode Family Feud, which we somehow missed altogether!  (And yes, our pig snout puffs *are* a little on the runny side!)  And for our first Forum's Topic of the Week or 2013 we'll get in the mood for Bronson's second season by posing this question: Which room of Bronson's house do you hope he will work on next?  Let us know what you think he might do, as well!  Until next time . . . Boochi, boochi, boochi!

December 18, 2012 - Happy Birthday, Cousins!  We all received a wonderful present to anticipate in the coming year with the news that The Bronson Pinchot Project will be returning to television with a sneak peek on January 12th (this news coming courtesy from our wonderful Balki Claus herself, Cousin Lucy of Bronson Pinchot Online!)  I know we're all anxiously awaiting the start of the second season, but we'll just have to hold on to our cats a few weeks longer!  In the meantime, we have some final updates for you this year, including a brand new Photo of the Week, plus completely updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added an article from an unknown publication which talks about how Balki would be getting a bigger kitchen in season 7 of Perfect Strangers (when the Cousins and girls moved into the bigger house, you'll recall) to our Articles section.  And to put you in the mood for Christmas, we have added an ABC network commercial for the first holiday episode A Christmas Story to our YouTube Channel.  And we'll broaden our Forum's Topic of the Week this time to close out the year with this question: "What, if any, are your New Year's resolutions?"  We won't be updating next Tuesday since it will be Christmas Day (will you get to be the Christmas Girl / Boy this year?) but we will be back the following Tuesday which will be New Year's Day!!  If you don't have a noisemaker handy just squeeze a frog and join us again then for all new updates in a all new year!

December 11, 2012 - Boochi Clause is coming to town . . . delivering boochies to children who could use the companionship of a coodly little sheep.  Our 2012 Boochies for Babies campaign is underway and our collection of sheep will be donated sometime this week!  If you'd like to participate, just buy a stuffed sheep and donate it to your local charity.  That's all it takes!  Thanks, Cousins!  We have our regular selection of updates for you this week, including a brand new Photo of the Week, plus completely updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added a brief article about an ABC teachers project from 1991 which was disrupted by the start of the Gulf War in our Articles section.  And we have added another ABC network commercial for the Perfect Strangers episode Weigh to Go, Buddy to our YouTube Channel.  And this time our Forum's Topic of the Week question is this: What is your favorite Balki-ism of all time?  You have more than one favorite?  Get out of the city!  Let us know ALL of your favorites then, Cousins!  Go on with you!

December 4, 2012 - We hope all of our Cousins have been good this year so that Balki Claus will pay them a visit in a few weeks!  In the meantime, you can play Balki Claus yourself by participating in our annual Boochies for Babies campaign!  Every year we ask that anyone who has the time and can afford to please buy a stuffed sheep from a local toy store and donate it to your children's charity of choice, i.e. Toys for Tots.  Every child could use a cuddly, warm sheep, so please donate if you can!  And we would love for you to share photos of the sheep you donate with us to inspire our fellow Cousins!  Thanks, everyone!  This week we are bringing you a brand new Photo of the Week, plus complete television listings on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added a newspaper comics section Mini Page on Perfect Strangers from 1988 to our Articles section.  Also we have added another ABC network commercial for Perfect Strangers on our YouTube Channel . . . this one for the season three episode Weigh to Go, Buddy.  And for our Forum's Topic of the Week we will pose this question to all of you: If you could have one PS related Christmas present this year, what would it be?  As if we didn't already know!  See you again next week!

November 27, 2012 - Hello, Cousins!  Here's hoping your Thanksgiving was relatively calm and not invaded by two crazy men looking for a diamond ring in your turkey!  This week we're pleased to bring you some fun updates, including a brand new Photo of the Week, plus up-to-date television listings on our What's On Television? page (for all of you couch po-tah-toes out there!)  We have also added a page from an unknown publication that took a look back at the Exciting Eighties of television to our Articles section.  And we have added yet another ABC network commercial for Perfect Strangers on our YouTube Channel . . . this one also for the season three opening episode All the News That's Fit to Print.  And for our Forum's Topic of the Week we'd like to ask you the following question: If you had the chance to talk to someone who worked at Warner Home Video, what would you say to convince them that the remaining seasons of Perfect Strangers should be released on DVD?  We look forward to hearing your responses, Cousins!

November 20, 2012 - Welcome back, Cousins!  We're very pleased to bring you some fun stuff this week, including a link on our News page to the fabulous website of photographer / videographer Lem Lattimer whose art is such a major part in bringing The Bronson Pinchot Project to life.  Many thanks to Cousin May for bringing this fabulous site to our attention!   In our regular updates, we have added a brand new Photo of the Week, plus up-to-date listings of upcoming PS cast appearances on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added a 1985 review of the series Sara from People Magazine to our Articles section (thanks, once again, to Cousin Dawn!)  And we have added another ABC network commercial for Perfect Strangers on our YouTube Channel . . . this one is for the season three opener All the News That's Fit to Print.  And in honor of Thanksgiving here in the United States, our Forum's Topic of the Week poses this question: If you could spend a holiday with Balki and Larry, which one would you choose and what would you do?  Hope you have a fabulous week, Cousins!

November 13, 2012 - Hello, Cousins!  Are you ready for yet another week of updates?  Well, of course you are, don't be absurd!  This week we start out with a couple of TV alerts you should know about, starting with a marathon of season one episodes of The Bronson Pinchot Project on DIY on November 15th.  And if you can't get enough Bronson, there are also some repeat showings of DIY Channel's show That's So 80's on both November 14th and 17th.  Sam Anderson will also be returning to network television this Thursday, November 15th, in an episode of the ABC series Scandal entitled "Spies Like Us!"  Check out the listings on our What's On Television? page for these and other upcoming TV appearances by the cast of PS!  For our regular updates, we have added a brand new Photo of the Week, and we've also added a review of Beverly Hills Cop from a January 1985 edition of People Magazine which took a look at movie scene stealers (thanks once again to Cousin Dawn for the great articles she posted on our Facebook group!)  And we have added another ABC network commercial for Perfect Strangers on our YouTube Channel . . . this time for the season two episode Snow Way to Treat a Lady, Part One.  The episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the final episode of the series, Up, Up and Away, Part Two.  Opinions were decidedly lukewarm (and understandably show) for the show's penultimate episode, but did the final, final installment leave you wanting more, or feeling the show had definitely run its course?  We look forward to your input on this one, Cousins!  This will be the last Weekly Episode Discussion for a while, but hopefully we will go back and fill in the episodes we covered on our previous Forum (plus any we may have missed . . . Cousin littledimitri pointed out to us that the episode Family Feud is not a thread on either forum, although I have it marked off on my list, but test assured that eventually we will go back and cover all the episodes here!)  And finally for our Forum's Topic of the Week has Cousin Mireya asking this very interesting question: What kind of Perfect Strangers products (besides DVDs) would you like to see, and what kinds would you NOT want to see, ever?  I do hope she will tell the story behind this question, because it's a very funny one indeed!  We will see you again next week, Cousins!

November 6, 2012 - Did all of our Cousins in the U.S. get out and vote today?  We hope so, regardless of who you voted for (Balki for Class President perhaps?)  Now that you've done your civic duty, sit down and enjoy our latest updates, including a brand new Photo of the Week, plus complete up-to-date listings of upcoming PS cast appearances on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added a classic People magazine article about Bronson's scene stealing in Beverly Hills Cop from 1985 to our Articles section, courtesy of Cousin Dawn (thanks once again for all the articles, Cousin!)  We have also added Issue #25, the very last issue of the original P.S. I Love You! Newsletter to the site for you to peruse and enjoy!  And we have added another ABC network commercial for Perfect Strangers on our YouTube Channel . . . this time for the season two episode Beautiful Dreamer.  This most supreeze you, but we are now down to our last two episodes to review on our on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board (between the old and new forums . . . we may have to go through the ones on the old forum again at some point!) so this week we will be discussing the first half of the two-part series finale, Up, Up and Away.  Who knows?  Maybe your boysenberry pig gut preserves will win first prize!  And finally for our Forum's Topic of the Week we would like to ask you this question: Have you ever cried while watching an episode of Perfect Strangers?  If so, during which one and why?  I'm sure everyone has some moving stories regarding our favorite show, so we look forward to hearing from you, as always!

October 23, 2012 - Well, give me change and call me Barack!  Just in time to capitalize on the impending election, the CBS series NCIS: Los Angeles is offering up a politically-themed episode of their own tonight, and it is guest starring Sam Anderson!  So be sure to check out our News page for information about that!  And while you're there, you can also find out how you can meet Bronson and get his autograph at the Chiller Theatre Expo in Parsippany, New Jersey, this upcoming weekend!  Should be a fun show, as they have lots of celebrity guests scheduled!  This is Bronson's first-ever such convention appearance, so if you're in the area stop in and say hi!  We have our regular updates for you this week, Cousins, including a brand new Photo of the Week, plus updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added an article from 1987 issue of US Magazine in which Bronson makes his Oscar predictions (thanks once again to Cousin Dawn for providing us with this article!)  And we have added another ABC network commercial for Perfect Strangers on our YouTube Channel . . . this time for the season two repeat Hunks Like Us.  The episode we will be discussing on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the season six finale See You in September.  Are you ready to prove your love by being doused in mud, Cousins?  And finally our Forum's Topic of the Week comes once again from Cousin Mireya, who would like to ask all of you this question: What story(ies) would you have written for an episode of Perfect Strangers?  Feel free to provide a summary or brief synopsis!  Everyone put on your thinking cats and some up with some good suggestions . . . who knows?  It might even inspire some fan fiction from some of our creative PS writers!

July 24, 2012 - It's so good to be home from vacation, Cousins!  And that's not because we let Cousin Larry make the plans and had a terrible time, but just because we missed being here to share more Perfect Strangers fun with you all!  So let's make up for lost time and start right in with this week's updates, including a brand new Photo of the Week as well as updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added a review of Blame It On the Bellboy from the McClatchy News Service in 1992 to our Articles section.  And we have a special treat for you this week!  Cousin Crystal found an old sketch of one of her adorable Perfect Strangers comic strips which she had started previously and now finished up for us to enjoy on her Cousins Gallery Page (just scroll down to the bottom of the page to see the new piece!)  Thank you, Cousin Crystal!!  We have also posted Issue #23 of the original P.S.

May 29, 2012 - Well!  (Make sure you read that with a whisper "H" after the W!)  This week we're back with another fresh batch of updates (not as delicious as a fresh batch of bibbibabkas but much less apt to explode!)  We begin with a brand new Photo of the Week and completely updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  Plus we have added a small blurb about a pilot television show Bronson appeared in called Forever Young to our Articles section.  And we have embedded Bronson's 1989 interview from After Hours to our Interviews section.  And we are beginning a series of Rebeca Arthur's appearances on The New Hollywood Squares from 1989 on our YouTube Channel.  The episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the season five opener Good Skates.  Just be sure to stay away from the stairs!  And finally, our Forum's Topic of the Week comes once again from Cousin littledimitri who asks this very good question: "If we still couldn't have the whole series on DVD but WB was going to release a 'Classics' or 'Quintessential PS' DVD - what episodes would we think should be on it?"  But on your thinking cats, Cousins, and let us know what you would choose as the episodes best to release on DVD!

May 22, 2012 - Are you ready to get back Funky Cat?  Well, we have another week of fun updates for you, Cousins, starting with a brand new Photo of the Week and complete listings on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added the cover of a TV Voice newspaper guide from April of 1986 featuring Balki and Larry to our Articles section.  And we have embedded Bronson's May 1988 interview and on-the-set report about Second Sight from Good Morning, America to our Interviews section.  We have also added Bronson's spots for a Disney Cable Channel Preview weekend which were done at Christmastime in 1996 to our YouTube Channel.  The episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the season six entry Climb Every Billboard.  Hopefully Destiniki will be able to help you decide what you think about this episode without making you scale a mountain!  And our Forum's Topic of the Week comes once again from Cousin littledimitri who asks us this question: "Did you feel at any point during the series like it was "done," i.e., jumped the shark?"  Let us know what you think, Cousins!

May 15, 2012 - Hello again, Cousins, and welcome back for another week of fun updates about our fah-vor-it television show!  This week, as always, we have our usual updates for you to peruse, including a brand new Photo of the Week and complete listings on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added an interesting print ad placed by P.S. executive producers Tom Miller and Bob Boyett in a 1990 issue of The Hollywood Reporter thanking director Rich Correll who directed three different Miller/Boyett shows airing on just one night of TGIF to our Articles section.  We have also embedded Bronson's 1988 interview from Entertainment Tonight to our Interviews section.  And we have added some comments Bronson made in a Disney Channel special tribute to the classic comedy team of Laurel and Hardy to our YouTube Channel.  And speaking of Laurel and Hardy, the episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the season four favorite Piano Movers.  What would you do if you had a piano chasing you down a flight of stairs?  Besides scream and run, that is?  And our Forum's Topic of the Week comes again from Cousin littledimitri, who has this interesting inquiry for you to ponder: What did you really love or hate about both Larry or Balki?  We look forward to hearing your answers, Cousins!

May 8, 2012 - Are you interested in the Games People Play?  Well, you should be, because right now it seems like everyone is playing the brand new online Perfect Strangers internet game Nothing's Gonna Stop Me Now!  This amazingly fun diversion was created by computer game master Jason Oda, who took some time out of his busy schedule to answer some questions for us in an exclusive Q&A!  You can find the link to that plus the link to the game itself on our News page!  Many thanks, Jason, for your time and many MORE thanks for creating such a wonderful game based on our favorite show!  I think everyone is in agreement that it really nails the feel of the show perfectly!  And when you've finished playing with that (go ahead, take your time . . . we know the game is addictive!) then we have our usual updates for you to enjoy, including a brand new Photo of the Week and completely up-to-date listings on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added the cover of the 1989-90 season press kit cover to our Articles section for you to view.  And we have added Bronson's 1988 correspondence assignment at a college comedy class from Good Morning, America to our Interviews section.  And we have also added yet another appearance which Melanie Wilson made on The Pat Sajak Show to our YouTube Channel.  The episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the season three outing Taking Stock (just how many raisins are in your box of Raisin Poofs?)   And our Forum's Topic of the Week comes courtesy of the creative Cousin littledimitri who asks "How would you have written the Season 2- 3 transition?"  There was a pretty big jump from the Ritz Discount Store to The Chronicle as well as the new apartment . . . what would you have done if you'd been writing the show?  Put on your thinking cats for that one, Cousins!

May 1, 2012 - Hello, Cousins, and welcome back!  I hope everyone enjoyed seeing Mark on The Good Wife on Sunday!  If you missed the episode, don't worry, you can now view it on CBS.com (if you are within the United States, that is) and we have the link for that on our News page now.  Hopefully we will continue to see more former Perfect Strangers cast members on TV more often!  This week we're back with our usual updates, including a brand new Photo of the Week, a new factoid on our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page, as well as updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  From now on we will only be updating the Tell Me Something I Don't Know page every so often . . . we've pretty much gone through our store of facts for right now, but we hope you've been enjoying that feature!  We will certainly add to it as we are continually discovering new things about our favorite show!  We have also added the cover of the 1988-1989 press kit folder for Perfect Strangers to our Articles section.  And we have embedded Mark's May 11, 1989 interview on Good Morning, America to our Interviews section.  We have also added Melanie Wilson's complete Pat Sajak interview (which also featured Louie Anderson, who talked about filming the Perfect Strangers pilot with Bronson!) to our YouTube Channel.  The episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the season two tearjerker Falling in Love Is . . .  Make sure you have plenty of macadamia nut ice cream on hand for that one, Cousins!  And our Forum's Topic of the Week comes once again from Cousin littledimitri who asks "What other famous characters can you see the Perfect Strangers actors playing?"  Now there's some thoughtful food!  And don't forget, you can also discuss the show on our Facebook Group, so why not join us there?  Go on with you!

April 24, 2012 - Well!!  Think it's been too long since we've seen Mark Linn-Baker on television?  Well, you're in for a treat this week, Cousins, because Mark will be making an appearance as a judge on the popular CBS series The Good Wife in their third season finale!  We have more information about this on our News page for you to check out.  And while we're waiting for that, let's look at our regular weekly updates, shall we?  First we have for you a brand new Photo of the Week, a new factoid on our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page, as well as updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  And we have added a cover story about Perfect Strangers (well, the cover at least!) from the Ventura County Star Free Press TV Star magazine to our Articles section.  And we've embedded Bronson's lengthy and very interesting interview circa 1990 on North West Afternoon to our Interviews section.  Plus we have added Melanie Wilson's 1989 interview on A.M. Los Angeles to our YouTube Channel.  The episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the season five episode The Newsletter.  Read it before they wrap fish in it!  And this week's Topic for our Forums comes once again from Cousin littledimitri, who asks us this question: "What kinds of things could have happened if PS had continued with the new generation growing up?  Who would play Tucker and Robbie?"  Be creative in that casting, Cousins!  We'll see you again next week!

April 17, 2012 - Well, Frankenstein my salvage and call me Bronson!  We're very happy to announce that The Bronson Pinchot Project has indeed been picked up for another season!  Congratulations, Bronson, and we can't wait to see you, Mikey, C.J. and everyone else back again for more shows soon!  In the meantime, we have another week of updates ready for you, Cousins, including a brand new Photo of the Week, a new tidbit of information on our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page, and updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added a cover photo for Mark's film Noises Off from Box Office magazine to our Articles section.  And we have embedded another one of Bronson's 1987 interviews from Good Morning, America to our Interviews section.  Plus this week we are adding Rebeca Arthur's 1991 interview on Rick Dees Into the Night to our YouTube Channel.  The episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the season five episode Digging Up the News.  Which is your favorite part?  The musical number?  Or seeing Mark dressed up as Frenchy?  And this week our Forum's Topic of the Week comes once again from Cousin littledimitri, who asks this very thought-provoking question: "Are there any episodes that really 'bother' you, in the sense that they feel like the wrong kind of plot for the show, or Larry or Balki really acts out of character?"  Get out of the city!

April 10, 2012 - Wwowww!  Welcome back for another week of fun updates, Cousins!  We'll start off this week by sharing a very funny video of Bronson that was posted recently on YouTube, and which you can check out on our News page!  We really hope this will be just the first of many to come!  Also, Bronson Pinchot Online now has a Facebook page, so head on over there and Like it to keep up with all the latest news on Bronson!  Get out of the city!  And now we have our usual updates, which include a brand new Photo of the Week, a new nugget of knowledge on our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page, and updated listings on our What's On Television? page.  We have also added a small photo from TV World in 1991 for Mark's made-for-TV movie Bare Essentials.  And we have embedded Bronson's 1995 interview from Entertainment Tonight in which he takes viewers on a tour of the set of The Langoliers to our Interviews section.  And we have added another very cute ABC commercial in which Balki and Larry tell viewers that Perfect Strangers is moving to 9:00 p.m. to our YouTube Channel.  The episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the season three episode The Pen Pal.  Booga booga!!  And our Forum's Topic of the Week comes from Cousin littledimitri who would like to ask her fellow Cousins this question: "What guest character or minor character would you have liked to see more of?"  Okay, Cousins, go on with you!

April 3, 2012 - Oh po po!  The first season of The Bronson Pinchot Project is over, but we still have reruns to watch!  We're hoping the show is picked up for a second season and will let you know for sure when we know!  But what better way to recuperate from our withdrawal pangs than by enjoying a very funny and entertaining video interview with Lower Coast Skies, the awesome Aussie band which recently recorded a rockin' version of the Perfect Strangers theme song, Nothing's Gonna Stop Me Now?  These talented musicians and performers from down under were absolutely wonderful in answering our many questions in a fun and unique way, so check out their video interview, linked from our News page!  And then check out our regular updates including a brand new Photo of the Week, a new factoid on our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page, as well as up-to-date listings on the What's On Television? page.  And we have added an interesting (if not exactly glowing) review of the episode Safe at Home from The Hollywood Reporter in September 1990 to our Articles archive.  Plus we have embedded Bronson's interview on Good Morning, America from 1987 to our Interviews section.  And we have added an interesting ABC commercial for Eek! Week featuring the actors from various ABC shows to promote the premiere of the short-lived animated series Capitol Critters to our YouTube Channel.  And the episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the season seven episode Yes Sir, That's My Baby.  Be sure to join the discussion or Mr. Cuddly Bunny's gonna beat the living daylights out of you!  And finally, our Topic of the Week question comes from Cousin WhitLovesBalki and it's a very appropriate one, although it may be difficult to answer, and that is this: "What has been your favorite project that Bronson has undertaken on The Bronson Pinchot Project?"  Hmmm . . . how to decide?  Maybe we should just watch all the episodes over again!

March 27, 2012 - Wwowww!  Does it seem possible that the first season of Bronson's new show, The Bronson Pinchot Project, can be coming to an end so soon?  It's amazing how quickly you become addicted to watching Bronson getting excited like a kid over his architectural doings!  I'm sure we all hope DIY will pick up the show for at least another season!  In the meantime, we'll keep you company with non-architectural updates, such as a brand new Photo of the Week, a new tidbit of information on our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page, as well as up-to-date listings on the What's On Television? page.  We also have some News about a new Warner Bros. exhibit at the Paley Center for Media in Beverly Hills, California, which we're told does include some Perfect Strangers memorabilia!  We hope to have more detailed information about this exhibit soon, so hold on to your cats!  We have also added an article about Bronson from a 1988 edition of the San Gabriel Valley Tribune to our Articles section.  And we have embedded Bronson's 1989 interview with John Larroquette about Second Sight from the news program Live on Five to our Interviews section.  And we have added two similar but different commercials from ABC in which Balki and Larry announce Perfect Strangers' move from 8:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on Friday nights to our YouTube Channel.  And the episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the fifth season episode Disorderly Orderlies.  Simon Says, "Discuss!"  And our Topic of the Week comes once again from littledimitri, who asks: "How would you have written the end of the series differently?"  Blow my mind, why don't you?  Isn't that a terrific question!  I'm sure many of us would have liked to have seen the series end somewhat differently (or maybe not end at all!) so give it some thought, Cousins, and let us know what you think!  Oh po po!

March 20, 2012 - Well, wear my vests and call me Balki!  It's been an exciting week, Cousins, especially with Bronson's exciting appearance on Good Morning, America, care of a Lara Spencer report done for ABC News.  It was wonderful to see Bronson giving Lara a tour of Harford and his homes, but the big excitement for P.S. fans came with Lara's almost off-handed comment about Bronson saying he would be happy to do a Perfect Strangers reunion under the right circumstances (which you can read more about, and also view the original interview, on our News page!)  We also have new episodes of The Bronson Pinchot Project to look forward to on DIY, as well as reruns of the show which are turning up more often, so say tuned for those!  Meanwhile we have our usual batch of updates, including a brand new Photo of the Week, a new factoid on our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page, as well as up-to-date listings on the What's On Television? page.  We've also added an article from a 1987 edition of The Gazette about Perfect Strangers.  And we've embedded Bronson's 1989 from Regis and Kathie Lee to our Interviews section.  And we have added a very short but cute Monday Night Football ad from ABC featuring Balki and Larry to our YouTube Channel.  And the episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the season four episode Prose and Cons.  Why not give your blanket to someone you love this week in honor of Balki's selflessness, Cousins?  And our Topic of the Week on the Forums this week is this really good question from Cousin Whit, which is this: "If Bronson’s new show becomes available on DVD, will you buy it?"  Do we know what everyone's answer will be?  Well, I hope we do!  Don't be ridiculous!

March 13, 2012 - Greetings and salutations, Cousins!  Can't get enough of The Bronson Pinchot Project?  Well, on March 18th DIY will be running a marathon of all the episodes so far, and you can find those listings on our What's On Television? page (and thanks to Cousin Whit for an early heads up on that!)  It's a terrific show and we can only hope if he ever does a bathroom renovation it goes a lot smoother than when Larry tried to change Jennifer's shower head (our advice to Bronson in that circumstance . . . spackle is amazing stuff!)  We have our usual updates as well, including a brand new Photo of the Week, and a new factoid on our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page.  We have also added an early TV Guide article about the PBS American Playhouse telefilm, The Ghost Writer, which Mark appeared in back in 1984 from TV Guide to our Articles section.  And we have embedded Bronson's 1988 guest hosting spot on Hour Magazine to our Interviews section.  Plus we have added a series of ABC commercials for reruns of comedy shows which ran in the summer of 1988 called The Decathalon of Comedy (to compete with the Summer Olympics running on a rival network) to our YouTube Channel.  And the episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the season six episode Grandpa.  And we hope this week's discussion will give you a real Buzz.  Get it?  Buzz?  Where do we come up with them?!  And our Forum's Topic of the Week this week is another very interesting thought-provoker from Cousin littledimitri, which is this: "Could Perfect Strangers work if it took place today?"  Think about it, Cousins, and give us your opinions!

March 6, 2012 - Hope everyone had a pleasant Leap Day this year (not quite as much fun as Mud Day, which as we all know takes place every year!)  We have returned with more updates for you, and if you want to be sure to catch ALL the up-to-the-minute Perfect Strangers news then join us on our Facebook Group!  This week we have our usual updates, including a brand new Photo of the Week, a new tidbit of information on our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page, as well as up-to-date listings on the What's On Television? page.  We have also added a short article from an Unknown Publication about a rare manuscript which Bronson once purchased at auction.  And we've embedded Bronson's 1989 interview on The Byron Allen Show to our Interviews section.  And we have added the last one of the very funny One to One public service announcements from ABC Saturday morning to our YouTube Channel in which Balki learns to learn from his mistakes.  And the episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the season three episode The Break In.  Remember, insult comedy can be a very dangerous thing in the wrong hands!  And our Forum's Topic of the Week this week comes from the Cousin littledimitri, who stormed her brain to come up with a whole bunch of potential topics, many of which we will undoubtedly be using in the coming weeks!  But this week's topic is this: "What makes the show special (different from / better than) other shows for you?"  Let us know what you think, Cousins!

February 28, 2012 - Well, cut my salvage and call me C.J.!  It's amazing how much media attention Bronson's new show is getting, and by far a vast majority of it is positive!  Be sure to catch up on all the latest media happenings listed on our own The Bronson Pinchot Project Page.  And don't forget to tune in to the DIY Network every Saturday night at 10:30 p.m. for a new episode!  And while you're patiently waiting for that, why not peruse our latest batch of updates?  This week we are bringing you our usual fare, including a brand new Photo of the Week, a new factoid for our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page, as well as up-to-date listings on the What's On Television? page.  We have also added an very interesting article from an Unknown publication from September 1986 which talks about Perfect Strangers.  And we've embedded Bronson's 1993 interview about The Trouble with Larry on CBS This Morning to our Interviews section.  Plus we've added another one of those very cute One to One public service announcements from ABC Saturday morning to our YouTube Channel, this time teaching the lesson to like yourself and your own looks.   And the episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the season six episode New Kid on the Block.  Are you ready for Tess the Terrible??  And finally we don't have a Topic of the Week this week, but if you'd like to suggest one for the Forums then feel free to e-mail us and let us know!  Now go on with you!

February 21, 2012 - Wwowww!  So what does everyone think of Bronson's new show on DIY?  We're doing our best to keep up with all the latest news on The Bronson Pinchot Project, so if you don't want to miss out on anything be sure to join our Facebook group or at least check in with our Blog where we are posting links to the latest interviews and articles in the media.  Be sure to check out our News page for information on Bronson's upcoming appearance on the online interview show Down and Dirty!  You can also find these compiled on our very own The Bronson Pinchot Project Page.  This week we are bringing you our usual updates, including a brand new Photo of the Week, a new tidbit of information on our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page, and up-to-date listings on the What's On Television? page.  We have also added an article from an unknown source about Bronson in Perfect Strangers from 1987 to our Articles section.  And we have embedded Bronson's 1988 interview on Good Morning, America, to our Interviews section.  And be sure to catch another one of the very cute and fun One to One PSAs which aired on ABC on Saturday mornings in the late 1980's to our YouTube Channel, this one about the value of not lying.  And since it's come up a few times since Bronson's new series started, let's make the season five episode This Old House be the episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board.  And finally we leave you to ponder this week's Forum Topic of the Week question, which is this: "When and how did you first start watching Perfect Strangers?"  True, we've discussed similar subjects previously on the forums, but not on the new forums and we do have some new members there, so why not share your stories again?  Get out of the city!

February 14, 2012 - Happy Valentine's Day, Cousins!  And what better Valentine's Day can there be than to have Bronson back on our television sets, and in such an open and candid way!  Fans were treated to a wonderful barrage of interviews last week which Bronson gave from both his home and in New York.  You can catch up on all of these by visiting our new The Bronson Pinchot Project Page in which we will embed all the online episodes and also links to all the media Bronson has done related to the show!  Get out of the city!  We also must give a shout out to our good friend Chris Mann and thank him for his wonderful job interviewing Bronson for his Reimagine That! podcast!  You can find the link to that on the previously mentioned page, as well as our News page.  (Thanks also to Cousin Lucy of Bronson Pinchot Online for helping Chris and I to secure the interview with Bronson as well!  Head on over to her site for the latest Q&A session with Bronson, too!)  Bronson also has a brand new official, official blog which you can visit and comment on by going to the link on our Bronson Page (also check out his demo reel while you're there!)  But let's move on to our regular updates, including a brand new Photo of the Week, a new factoid on our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page, and up-to-date listings on the What's On Television? page.  We've also added a very interesting 1986 article about Perfect Strangers from Newsday to our Articles section.  And we've embedded Bronson's November 1989 interview on CNN Showbiz Today about Second Sight to our Interviews section.  And we've added yet another one of the adorable ABC's One to One PSA spots, this time about bowling, to our YouTube Channel.  And the episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the hilarious season two episode, Hunks Like Us.  (Be sure not to work out too much before your big Valentine's Day dates, Cousins!)  And finally take a moment to answer the following Topic of the Week question up for discussion: "What is the most interesting NEW thing you've learned about Bronson in the past week?"  Oh po po!

February 7, 2012 - Well, assist my renovation and call me Mikey!  The official debut of The Bronson Pinchot Project on the DIY Network on February 11th is almost here!  For those of you who missed the first episode, it's a chance to finally see this fun series on television, and for those of us who have seen it, well, I'm sure many of us will be tuning in again!  We will try to keep you up to date on any happenings for the show that night, especially if Bronson does any live video feeds on DIY or anything, so be sure to check our Facebook page and Forum throughout the day on February 11th!  As we await the big day, let's go ahead and peruse this week's updates, shall we?  As always, we have a brand new Photo of the Week, a new tidbit of P.S. related information on our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page, and up-to-date listings on the What's On Television? page.  We have also added a not-so-glowing review of Second Sight from The New York Times to our articles section, but only because they do give Bronson credit for his skills, even though in general they pan the movie itself.  This will also give you an idea of the kinds of reviews Bronson read before having to go out and face the talk show circuit anyway and how difficult it really was for him.  We have also added a February 1988 report from Entertainment Tonight about movie scene stealers, as well as some other quick clips from that time period featuring Bronson Pinchot, to our Interviews section.  And we've added another one of the ABC Saturday morning public service announcement commercials called One to One to our YouTube Channel, this time featuring Balki and Larry playing checkers!  And the episode we will be discussing this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board will be the classic season six entry, Speak, Memory.  All together now . . . "Hello, my name is Cousin Larry App-le-ton!"  And we are also offering the following Topic of the Week question up for discussion: "Which episode of Perfect Strangers do you think you've watched the most times, and why?"  It should be very interesting to see how everyone's answers vary on this one!

January 31, 2012 - Well, slant my window panes and call me Bevel!  We're anxiously awaiting the official debut of The Bronson Pinchot Project on the DIY Network, but if you just can't wait to see the first episode again you can now watch it on our News page, courtesy of DIY, which has posted the episode online!  Get out of the city!  We've also posted an article about the show posted on the Sun Herald's website which you can also find on the News page!  I know we're all anxiously awaiting episode two, which will air on February 11th, so be sure to join us on Facebook and our new Forums to discuss all the fun!  This week we have our usual round of updates for you, including a brand new Photo of the Week, a new factoid on our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page, and up-to-date listings on the What's On Television? page.  We have also added an article about Bronson and Second Sight from an unknown publication to our Articles section.  And speaking of Second Sight, we have embedded Bronson's 1988 interview on Entertainment Tonight done on the set of that film.  And speaking of Entertainment Tonight we have now added another interview with Bronson from that show aired on March 22, 1988 to our YouTube Channel.  And this week on our Forum's Weekly Episode Discussion Board we will be discussing the final entry into the season-ending four-episode story arc from season seven, Get Me to the Dump on Time (and be honest, you're already trying to remember how to pronounce the Bitatatoutata Ratatatouille, complete with head turn and spit!)  And while you're there, give us an opinion on our Topic of the Week as well!  This week's question is this: "Which room of Bronson's house do you most hope he will remodel next?"  And will he bring in Mark Linn-Baker to build a gazebo?  Or perhaps take one down?  Well, of course not!  Don't be ridiculous!

January 24, 2012 - Well, restore my house and call me Bronson!  We hope you all enjoyed the sneak peek of Bronson's new home renovation series on the DIY Network, the Bronson Pinchot Project!  If you didn't catch it, don't despair!  The show will debut on February 11th, so there's still time to call your cable company and order the DIY Network if you don't have it already!  Let us begin this week with our usual updates, including a brand new Photo of the Week, a new tidbit of P.S. information on our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page, and up-to-date listings on the What's On Television? page.  We have also added an article about Bronson from an Unknown Publication in which he talks briefly about his name.  And we have embedded Bronson's 1988 interview on CNN Showbiz Today to our Interviews section.  And we have added Mark's appearance on the 1989 People's Choice Awards to our YouTube Channel!  And if you haven't signed up for a new Forum yet, please do so!  This week we will be discussing the third entry into the season-ending four-episode story arc from season seven, It Had to Be You.  Finally we get to hear Justin's voice and not just see the back of his head!  And while you're over there, join in our Topic of the Week, which is this: "If Mark Linn-Baker were to star in a reality show of his own, what would you like to be the focus of that show?"  Blow my mind, why don't you??

January 17, 2012 - Well, Cousins, this week marks the highly-anticipated sneak peek of Bronson's new series, The Bronson Pinchot Project, for the Do-It-Yourself Network (DIY) on January 21st!  You can catch a nice promo for the show on YouTube now, thanks to the DIY Network, which you'll find on our News page!  We'll be talking about the show this week on our BRAND NEW FORUMS, as well as our Blog and also on Facebook, so come join in the conversation and let us know what you think of the show after it airs (and please note that the show airs at the same time on both coasts, starting at 11:00 p.m. ET and 8:00 p.m. PT!)  The show will actually debut in February, so we're excited to catch our first glimpse into Bronson's world of vintage home restoration (which we suspect he approaches with much more care than he did as Balki with Cousin Larry in episodes like This Old House and The Gazebo!)  Did we mention our new Forums??  Yes, after much soul-searching we decided to set up a new forum system for everyone, and you can register online now!  We hope to see many of our regulars, as well as some new fans, join us in our fun discussions of the series!  And to help celebrate, we've even added some new Icons for you to use!  Get out of the city!!  Now, let us not neglect our regular duties in announcing that this week we also have our usual updates, including a brand new Photo of the Week, a new kernel of knowledge on our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page, and up-to-date listings on the What's On Television? page.  We have also added an article from an unknown publication about Bronson being Born in the USA to our Articles section.  And we've added Rebeca's 1989 appearance on the television game show Couch Potatoes to our Interview section.  And we've added Mark's 1989 appearance on the United Cerebral Palsy Starathon to our YouTube Channel!  And finally, the episode we will be discussing this week on our brand new Forums (did we mention they were new?) is the second entry into the season-ending four-episode story arc from season seven, Chicago Suite.  Are you in the mood for a Woody Woodpecker marathon, Cousins?  Well, of course you are!  Don't be ridiculous!!  But that's not all!  We're also re-introducing our Topic of the Week, and this week's topic is timely: "What do you think about the idea behind Bronson's new show and will you be watching it?"  We'll see you on the Forums, Cousins!

January 10, 2012 - Welcome back, Cousins!  Having you join us week after week makes us happier than a tick on a sheepdog!  This week we're bringing you all-new updates, starting with our usual fare: a brand new Photo of the Week, a new interesting "FACT!" (spoke a la Larry Appleton) on our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page, and up-to-date listings on the What's On Television? page (don't forget to check out Sam Anderson in this week's episode of Work it!)  And check out our News page for information about Bronson's upcoming new series for the DIY Network, The Bronson Pinchot Project!  We have also published a photograph taken of Bronson and Mark at the American Comedy Awards to our Articles section.  And we've embedded Bronson's 1989 interview on Attitudes to our Interviews section.  We have now added Mark's introductory segments from the 1988 special Moscow Circus to our YouTube Channel.  Now, we have an issue with our And we will be continuing our debate this week on our Forums which we must address.  After having issues during our hosting package move last month I only now realized I no longer have access to the Control Panel or Administrator Settings.  Kind of hard to manage an online forum without those!  Because the forums have been fairly buggy from the outset, and because our hosting company, which originally offered this version of forum as part of their hosting package but sadly no longer supports it, we will be exploring alternatives to the current Forum system.  For the most part, our Facebook Group will likely take the place of the forums in the future.  In addition to this, we are adding a brand new Blog for both news and episode discussions!  So we will try this for a while to see how it works out.  The current Forums will remain in place for fans to view past posts and continue to talk if they like, but note that they will no longer be maintained and if they go wonky, that will be that.  Sorry for the inconvenience, Cousins, but we hope we can set up enough alternative venues of discussion to keep our close family of Cousins together and communicating!  So with that being said, we will allow last week's episode discussion of the beginning of the season seven quadruple episode season final storyline . . . Or Get Off the Pot to continue on the Blog so you can have your say and we can test these new options!  Definitely let us know what you think of the changes and which you prefer!

January 3, 2012 - Happy New Year, Cousins!  We hope you are having a wonderful year so far!  We're going to try to help make it a good year with lots of fun updates for you, so hold on to your cats!  Let's start the New Year right with our usual updates, starting with a brand new Photo of the Week, a new factoid on our Tell Me Something I Don't Know page, and up-to-date listings on the What's On Television? page (sadly we missed announcing Sam Anderson's appearance on Hawaii-Five 0 here on the site, although we did mention it on Facebook, but you have a chance to catch him on television yet as he's appearing in the January 10th episode of the new series Work It!)  We have also added an article from an unknown publication (most likely a teen magazine) circa 1986 which explains how Bronson would give a secret wink to his fans in public.  And Cousin Cheryl amazingly spotted Rebeca Arthur in a commercial recently, and you can read more about that on our News page!  And then we have added Bronson's very funny Movietime interview which the fabulous Richard Blade conducted with Bronson Pinchot in 1989 to our Interviews section!  And to keep you in the New Year spirit we have added Mark's segments with Tracy Scoggins from the 1987 Dick Clark's Rockin' New Years Special to our YouTube Channel.  And finally the episode we will be discussing this week on our Forums' Weekly Episode Discussion board will be the beginning of the season seven quadruple episode season final storyline . . . Or Get Off the Pot.  The season seven episodes leading up to Balki and Mary Anne's wedding sparks some interesting reactions from fans, both negative and positive, so we will be going over these four pivotal episodes sequentially in the coming weeks!  This should be a very exciting year, Cousins, and we're especially looking forward to the debut of Bronson's new house renovation series, The Bronson Pinchot Project, for the Do It Yourself Network, scheduled to debut on January 21st!  Be sure to follow us on Facebook for all the latest info about this exciting debut!
