S1E1: Free Spirit
Manage episode 380287244 series 3350579
TGIF was ABC's block of television that ran on Friday nights for over a decade and became an iconic part of American television culture. There we've seen some of TV's all time greatest sitcoms. On September 22nd, 1989 we were introduced to its first ever lineup: Full House, Family Matters, Perfect Strangers, & Free Spirit...
Don't know that last one? Free Spirit was a short lived sitcom that had only one week on the infamous TGIF block before moving to a different time slot and faded away soon there after. It starred Corinne Bohrer as Winnie Goodwinn a witch who is summoned by 10-year-old boy's wish, and is subsequently hired as a live-in housekeeper by his father, a recently divorced lawyer and father of three.
Does Free Spirit deserve to share the honor of being a week 1 TGIF show or was this something that should have never been made in the first place? Find out as the S1E1 boys do a deep dive of the show's pilot episode.
Starring: Corinne Bohrer, Franc Luz, Paul Scherrer, Edan Gross, & Alyson Hannigan
