    		 Anybody remember a show called Boys Will Be Boys? I think that's what it was called. I think maybe we had this thread but I'm not sure it got much response.

        		 Hey! i have a question. there was this one cartoon on sat. mornings called "Crow" in the early ninties. it was about these two scientists who uncover a frozen wooly-mamouth named Phil who is still alive after the ice melts and speaks english, as it turns out. Phil the mamouth tells them about this neanderthawl family of a mom and i think 3 sons who are all really dumb, except for their adopted son Crow. (he has the intelligence of modern man! ooh-aah) :wink: anyway, i know i wasn't imagining this show, but non of my friends ever remember seeing it. so if anyone has seen or heard of it, i would love some confirmation of my mental capacity and the reassurance that i didn't live part of my childhood in my own head.

            I'm just nit-picking here, but I think it was spelled "Cro". :wink:
            It came on Noggin for a while, mostly at three in the morning, but I think they stopped running it recently. I'll go check later. Something hit the satellite dish and knocked it off the roof.:evil:
            Heh. Cro.

            Edit: I can't seem to find it on anywhere. Best of luck to you, if you go looking for it on tv

                		 It started out as a FOX sitcom called "Second Chance". From "The Complete Directory to Prime Time Network and Cable TV Shows":

                When "Second Chance" premiered it was a fantasy about a man caught between heaven and hell. Charled Russell died in the year 2011 in a hovercraft accident. When St. Peter attempted to determine where Charles' soul should be sent, he found that Mr. Russell ws not good enough for heaven or bad enough for hell. To resolve the situation Charles was given a second chance- returning to earth 24 years earlier to provide moral guidance to his own younger self, under the watchful eye of St. Peter. Hopefully he could earn his way into heaven.

                Charles assumed the name Time (from the magazine), and rented the room over the garage at the Venice, California, home in which he had grown up. His divorced mother Helen, who thought he looked familiar, needed the money. The proximity to his younger self, Chazz (played by a young Matthew Perry, in one of his first TV roles), gave him plenty of opportunity to help the teenager become a more responsible adult than Charles had turned out to be. Chazz's best friends were Booch, a worldly-wise, black-leather-jacketed womanizer reminiscent of "Happy Days'" Fonzie'; and Eugene, an incredibly naive nerd.

                Unhappy with the original format, the producers dropped the fantasy element and the original star, Kiel Martin. In January 1988 the series was retitled "Boys Will Be Boys" and the focus shifted to the escapades of the three teens- Chazz, Booch, and Eugene. Though still in high school, Chazz and Booch, whose alcoholic father had recently died, became roommates. They were living in that room over Mrs. Russell's garage ( more shades of "Happy Days";) that Charles had lived in. Chazz also had a new girlfriend in perky, next-door neighbor Debbie Miller.


                That is all. Thank you.
