Growing Pains: The Complete Second Season DVD Review


Synopsis: Congratulations…you’re fired. Mike (Kirk Cameron) receives a car from his pleased parents after he’s named Employee of the Month. (So how’s he going to tell them he’s been canned?) Mike’s not the only one with secrets. Brainy Carol (Tracey Gold) wants everyone to think she has a romantic extracurricular life with a hunky football hero. And what’s up with 10-year-old Ben (Jeremy Miller) and those 67 calls to a sex line? (No, it’s not what you might think.) These events don’t all happen at the same time, but they do all happen at the same place: the Season 2 home-sweet-ho-ho-home of the Seavers – dad Jason (Alan Thicke), mom Maggie (Joanna Kerns), three on-the-grow kids. Jason works as a psychiatrist. You think maybe it’s time to add some family appointments to his calendar?

Review: Fans of the vintage 1980s television show Growing Pains rejoice!  After years of waiting season two is out on DVD!  This family dramedy featured the now infamous Kirk Camerson and the late Andrew Koenig (son of Star Trek alum Walter Koenig).  Growing Pains is the adventures of the Seavers.  The show really hit a stride in season two and since we're comfortable with the characters the laughs come easy.  Its corny at times and of course the wardrobe and sitcom style reflect the times, but this is a great look back for fans.  Hopefully season three won't take as long to arrive!
