Review: Rags to Riches is a typically crazy 1980s plot...a self-made rich man needs an image boost, so he adopts five orphans.  Sure, that happens every day.   This show, although it was short-lived, was absolutely charming.  Its so cool to see it released on DVD in its entirety.  I had completely forgotten about this one until now and it was a fun walk down memory lane to see it again.  Plus, its nice to have a show to watch with the kids that isn't full of sex, violence and the like.  This one is a great family show that is a must-own.
