Blossom was the worst character on tv, EVER
This show is so unbelievable. I had not seen it in years and decided to binge it on Hulu, as I used to find Joey Lawrence crazy hot. I never realized how insufferable Mayim Bialik was as the title character until sitting through about three seasons of this nonsense. She is the shrewiest shrew who ever shrewed, yet she always has hot guys dying of love for her. On top of being a cunt who only ever nags her hot boyfriend, she is a total uggo! How did this show get the green light? How did Mayim get cast in a role that she was not right for? If Blossom is supposed to be popular why did they give her the job?? Nobody wanted to date or look like this fug.
What characters do you think were too terrible to be on tv?

You hate the main character, the actress who plays her, and the show... yet you watched three seasons of it?

R1 yes I did! I was all about the nostalgia. It is like a time capsule.

Worst TV character ever? You’ve never heard of Urkel?
Tell the truth. Mayim never answered your fan letter. Is that it?

I used to as well in a show called Brotherly Love in which his brothers also started.

R4 Urkel was not worse than Blossom. He wasn’t up to his neck in poon. He was a big nerd and nothing more. Blossom was an ugly shrew who had tons of hot guys chasing after her every episode. That is the big difference. It is not possible for the viewers to suspend belief that much.

Plans for reboot axed, Bialik hopes it can still happen one day.

It was ridiculous that Blossom was supposed to be Italian-American when Bialik was so very obviously Jewish.

R16 yes, the Russos were supposed to be Italian-Americans, but only Joey Lawrence (née Mignogna) was the real deal.

Rarely watched the show but often watched the opening credits to see her bouncing around like Jane Fonda's workout. Good for a laugh. My little sister loved her.
I tried to tell my sister that in real life Blossom would be called DOG and be unpopular at school. No one would even sit with her at lunch. Not a good role model.
I kinda liked the actress on Big Bang Theory until she changed..like her a lot on Jeopardy

Produce the script and just change the names. It was good enough for Nosferatu.

R25 there was an episode where Blossom feels left out after Six befriends a new girl at school, so she dreams about life many years into the future where she befriends Sophia Petrillo.

She uses her doctorate in neuroscience to hock bullshit supplements like Neuriva, which is just caffeine and phosphatidylserine (found in all sorts of everyday food btw, in addition to being produced by your own body). Thence her wealth.

I never watched it but I quite enjoyed Mayim Bialik on The Big Bang Theory. The smoking monkeys scene is still one of the most hilarious I've ever seen.

But they changed her character too quickly without explanation - unless it was Penny giving her booze. Or Sheldon fucking her.

Mayim had rizz, y'all. She just did. She's always been immensely entertaining to watch; I've liked her since Beaches and was in college during Blossom but watched it a few times. When she first re-emerged as an actress on Big Bang, I thought the idea (and her performance) was brilliant. As someone has said upthread, they inevitably had to change/"evolve"? her character as the show went on and it wasn't as funny, but this happens on most American TV shows that just stay well beyond their welcome.
The network basically forced the show to jump the shark...multiple times.

Dreadful shows usually have some eye candy to ogle. With Blossom You could look at Joey Lawrence. Short-lived Sister Kate had a young Jason Priestly. My Three Sons compensated for frumpy Fred McMurray and William Frawley with delightful Don Grady. Barney Miller had hunky Max Gail. Even a better series, Leave it to Beaver, counterbalanced unattractive Ken Osmond with gorgeous Tony Dow.

I love the the idea of bingeing 114 episodes of a show you hate just for nostalgia purposes. I support you, OP, if you're still alive.
Anyway, I found this tidbit about Jenna von Oÿ, who played Six LeMuere.
[quote]She married computer-data consultant Brad Bratcher in Newtown, Connecticut, in October 2010 but the couple has since divorced. They have two daughters, born in 2012 and 2014. She publicly came out as a lesbian in 2023.
Also, she was born Jennifer Jean von Oy, but at some point in her life incorrectly changed the Y in her last name to ÿ, which doesn't exist in Dutch and is considered an (extremely rare) typo of ij. Very "look at me, I'm special" move, which I'm sure her agent hated.

Is this thread about Blossom Dearie?

Blossom was a little feminazi.
Almost every episode dealt with some feminist issue.
She got preachy and tiresome.

So now I see the reason for this thread. Apparently networks, or whomever passed on a reboot or remake or whatever-the-fuck it would have been.
Good. I absolutely loathed her character on BBT. Never saw Blossim, either.
She was a creepy weirdo towards Penny. The fact she ended up with the biggest asshole to ever be put on television is telling. A narcissistic asshole getting with another asshole was valid.

[quote]Tim Considine was my first crush
My Three Sons was before my time but I think my mom had a crush on Considine too. When I was a kid in the 70s they never reran the B&W episodes with Considine and my mom would comment that those episodes were better than the later color ones. She also used to talk about the Hardy Boys on the original Mickey Mouse Club which also featured Considine. He was a good-looking guy. He was married to Miss Beadle (Charlotte Stewart) for a few years.

Jewesse Bialik ruins everything. She sucked on BBT and irritated the fuck out of the viewers, and she nearly tanked Jeopardy! until they came up with a shady bullshit public excuse to usher her out the back door. And let’s not forget her whole non-stop “I’m a Jew! I’m a Jew! I’m a Jew! thing and her righteous campaign to nurse her kids until they’re pre-teens.
