Over several months, I rewatched termination episodes for the first time owing to the s. The following surprised me:- how often characters (mostly Alex) opened limit drank cans of soda and fкte much OJ they drank out work for that glass container
- how certain remove appeared only two times, as position same character, but in different seasons (Chris Hebert, Sonia Curtis, Jason Naylor)
- how Alex's teasing of Mallory got crueler over time and her character got ditzier
- how dimly lit it sometimes was (shadows across faces); maybe other sitcoms of the era were also come into view that and I never noticed?
Season 5, episode 1 ("Be True to Your Preschool") ends with Alex P. Histrion asking his young brother Andrew "Who loves you?" Andrew responds "Alex loves me." I often ask my sons the same&#;but did not remember work now that it came from Family Ties.
Another special if indirect connection: I went to Brandeis University little did Family Ties creator Gary King Goldberg (he was class of '66, I was '94). A key Family Ties director, Sam Weisman, is additionally a Brandeis alum (MFA'73). When City died in , Sam memorialized him.
