Just got a bootleg set of the ‘80s sitcom Just The Ten Of Us today

Lucky!

I love how three of the four eldest Lubbock girls were in Elm St movies.

The kid that plays the son is now one of TV's top directors.

MUCH better than the show it spun off from - Growing Pains.

It was cancelled two seasons in not because of low ratings, but because network brass wanted yet another shitty Miller-Boyet sitcom for their TGIF lineup.

Thats cool OP! Can you tell us where you found them? I've been trying to find an alternative to iOffer since they've taken all their good stuff down.

R2 three of the four Lubbock girls were also on Melrose Place/ 90210, in that universe and Heather Langenkamp was close to being cast on Melrose's last season in a recurring role, Alexandra Paul got the part instead, if Heather had gotten it than every Lubbock girl would of also existed in the 90210/Melrose universe

Don't forget there was a fifth Lubbock sister...

Also Brooke Theiss looked like SHE was the mother

[quote][R2] three of the four Lubbock girls were also on Melrose Place/ 90210,

Brooke and Jamie were, but who was the third? JoAnne Willette?

Check the description box in the link and email the guy. The episodes aren’t exactly HQ, but if you love the show it’s better than nothing.

Thanks OP!

I loved when USA reaired the show in the mid to late 90s.

Someone needs to release the following on DVD: the charmings, Marblehead manor, models inc, I married Dora

One of my favorite DVD purchases

R9 yes Joann Willette was in two episodes , I believe, of season 5 of Melrose Place

I used to sell this on Ioffer. It's shit quality, but the episodes were all VHS transfers from tapes in the mid 90's.

Bill Kirchenbauer is on my FB and he's really funny. And also liberal.

Aside from hair color, Deborah Harmon bears a stunning resemblance to Deborah Geffner, who played Victoria in "All That Jazz"-- so much so that I can hardly believe they're not the same person. When she popped up in OP's trailer, I immediately thought, "Oh, there's the lousy dancer in 'All That Jazz'!"

I considered myself a Heather Langenkamp fan for some unknown reason, but didn't watch this cheesy sitcom, which wasn't even much of a hit. If Heather had been in something a classier, her career might've outlasted the end of the Elm Street series.

the hell it wasn't a hit. It was winning its time slot when it was cancelled

If "Ten" were her only claim to fame, Heather would've been about as famous as one the girls Facts of Life cut after the first season. To the extent she had any fame, it was all from the Elm Street movies.

Tom Miller and Bob Boyett should be run out of Hollywood on a fucking rail. Their later work at Lorimar (when professional misogynist Les Moonves was in charge of it) only proves the Garry Marshall actually knew what he was doing all along when they were all at Paramount enabling of the rise of Scott Baio.

And Robert Iger, the current CEO of Disney, got into the company through ABC. He was there every step of the way and he did nothing to stop these two hacks from lowering the bar for sitcoms for a generation.

Weren't there rumors that the set was a rapeatorium?

The cheesy Miller-Boyet sitcom Going Places replaced JTTOU and didn’t even go past one season. JTTOU did well in the ratings, and even won an Emmy for Outstanding Lighting Direction, but industry politics abruptly ended its run. It was a truly funny show. I remember writing to Heather Langenkamp when I was a teen (I’m a big fan of hers) and she responded that they were hoping to get a third season and that the Lubbock Babes were in talks to record an album. I would’ve loved to see that come to fruition. Some of my favorite episodes are the ones when they sing.

Your welcome R11!

[quote]Weren't there rumors that the set was a rapeatorium?

Other than a producer of the show named Steve Marshall, who also worked on [italic]WKRP in Cincinnati[/italic], later going to jail for child porn position, I can’t answer that. He also produced Gloria, the short-lived spin-off of [italic]Archie Bunker’s Place[/italic].

Position = possession

cancelled too early. shame

I always liked the fact that on Designing Women, Jan Hooks character basically cribbed the Just the Ten of Us theme song as the theme song for her own fictitious tv series.

^cool

Heather was already semi famous for Nightmare on Elm St. Jaime Luner went on to Melrose & other shows.

So much talent. So many break out stars!

^Silly Debbie Downer. If only you could suffer the same fate as Brooke Theiss’s Elm St 4 character, Debbie...
