I never thought of that either. Lol. That back area was definitely a heavy traffic area. I would never tell anyone to come to the back door.

do we know what the outside of the house looks like? it's possible they had a car port or something, and there was an entrance there.

That's true. You know, it's odd. Not once did we ever see the outside of the house. That is pretty peculiar for a TV show where we always had a shot of what the house looks like. Not on this show.

right. i can think of so many family sitcoms where we knew what the outside of house looked like.

**Barrybgb** · 05-13-2017, 03:01 PM

I wonder why? With the layout and style of the house inside, I have always been curious as to what it looked like.

**Melis** · 05-13-2017, 03:50 PM

it looks like a nice cozy house.

I thought so. I liked the kitchen. You didn't see the girls' or parents' rooms too often though. You saw Alex's room from time to time.

I don't remember anyone's room except Alex.

Seems like yesterday.

I remember seeing Andy's room when Alex was talking to an upset Andy on his bed, but it totally looked like a boring bedroom, didn't remember seeing anything kid friendly in it!
