Instant laugh machine!
27 November 1999 | by (Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil) – See all my reviews

I watched this show and all I can say is: This show is great! It's very funny and the history is amazing. I laughed hard several times watching Step By Step, and I recommend it to all the good-humored people who like family comedies.

This show is not "almost perfect", like Blossom and Dharma & Greg. It may look like another stupid TV show with canned laughs. But, if you watch it, I bet you'll laugh and like it.
