You Again?

Show Summary

Aired: 1986 - 1986
Show Type: Live Action
Country of Origin: US

Ever since his bitter divorce years earlier, Henry Willows (Jack Klugman) had been leading a quiet, peaceful life -- and he'd become set in his ways. But when his 17 year-old son, Matt (John Stamos), whom he'd not seen since the divorce, came knocking on the door, Henry found his life being turned upside-down. Matt's girl-chasing, rock-n-roll ways didn't bode well with his conservative father... leading to a lot of fights. Enid (Elizabeth Bennett)was Henry's wisecracking housekeeper.

Based on the British series Home to Roost, this series boasted a TV first. Actress Elizabeth Bennett essentially played the role of Enid in both series (though her surname was "Thompson" in the British counterpart) and found herself regularly commuting between London and LA. Many episodes of "You Again?" were based heavily on the British episodes, though they had to come up with some original stories, since UK shows have shorter "series" (seasons) than US shows. A decade after this series went off the air (and seven years after "Home to Roost" left the air), it was aired late-night on British TV.
