Designing Women




 

I remember watching this show back in 1988 for the first time. It was around the time Murphy Brown first came on on the Monday CBS night lineup. The TV show aired in Atlanta, GA. It was about four interior decorator women and they hired an ex-convict man named Anthony Bouvier played by Meshach Taylor to be their delivery 🚚 man. These women had sketch designs on how people wanted their house or houses designed. Anthony would get into mix-ups with these women and in some cases it was like husband and wife especially with one particular woman Delta Burke as Suzanne Sugarbaker. 

People would be surprised how I used to love watching this show. Designing Women aired from 1986-1993. This show was hilarious! Dixie Carter as Julia Sugarbaker, the older sister of Suzanne was out-spoken especially when it came to telling off people and also sticking up for people.

  I remember this 1980's and 1990's TV sitcom. I remember watching it on Thursday nights at 9:30 PM on NBC. This was a show that had a support group. Basically, people would share about their problems and what is going on in their lives and all of the friends would get behind them and support them. Jane Carr and Judd Hirsch you could say were leader and co-leader of the support group. It was a way for people to open up and share what was going on in their lives. This is one of the very few shows on any night anyone could be the star because each of them brought so much to the table.

  I remember watching this 80's TV sitcom Mr. Belvedere. Mr. Belvedere is always someone who you could go to for advice especially if you didn't know how to give advice yourself. George and Marsha Owens seemed a little confused whenever their children came to them with important news. Mr. Belvedere was their British housekeeper and he kept a journal on every episode. Mr. Belvedere would bake the Owens family cool desserts 🍪🎂. The show aired on ABC and was in the original TGIF lineup. Probably one of the most underrated 80's TV shows.

  This show came out when I was born in 1978. Willis and Arnold's mom's dying wish is for Mr. Drummond raise the two boys. Willis and Arnold grew up in the ghetto of Harlem, NY in a single parent home. Mr. Drummond took them out of the hood and they stayed in a nice home 🏡 in New Jersey with Mr. Drummond and Mr. Drummond's daughter Kimberly.  Arnold and Willis lived a life of luxury but never forgot where they came from. I remember watching this show when I was really little. There were lessons that the boys learned on the show when they made both good and bad decisions.
