Lol. That is true. I mean, he was playing an elderly grandpa in a retirement home in "Cocoon" and he was only 50/51 or so. He was only about 51 or so when he started this show!

I watched one of the two Halloween episodes they had. David and a friend stole a pumpkin from a street vendor. Of course, Gus found out about it and made him return it. Gus also took the little girl trick or treating at the mall. A very 80's mall. Afterwards, they went to the hospital and had her candy x-rayed!

I never knew of malls back then that did trick or treating.

I didn't either. I mean, the malls have been doing it now for years but I don't know if ours did in the 80's and I was just unaware of it or what.

I never heard of it then. In the 80s, people did REAL trick or treating. That meant going door to door in your neighborhood.

**Barrybgb** · 10-12-2017, 08:31 AM

True.

There was a second Halloween episode where David was dared to go into a house that was haunted. It was Gus to the rescue again riding on a horse!

They did one Christmas episode. The youngest girl wasn't in the mood because it was their first Christmas without their dad. David kept looking for presents hidden in the house.

Sounds good

I can't believe this show only was on for 2 seasons. It seemed like it was longer than that.
