Storyline

Kirk Hartman is no longer a mischievous screw up teenage son and school kid but has a job as a graphical artist and lives alone in the city where he works. When his parents move to Europe, the tables are turned as he finds himself placed in charge as surrogate-father of his 17-year-old brother Corey, 14-year-old sister Phoebe and 7-year-old brother Russel. Meanwhile he woos the beautiful neighbor Elizabeth Waters, who still finds him rather immature but learns to appreciate his charm and kind heart while developing her maternal potential as the motherless Hartman family lacks a woman's hand. Finally there's Kirk's slick macho friend next door, Eddie Balducci.

Cool

I enjoyed watching Kirk Cameron on TV. Growing Pains was an excellent comedy sitcom in the 80s. Kirk's show wasn't his best but that doesn't take away the charm he has on television. As a kid growing up watching Growing Pains I find it funny and I learned how adolescents grew up with two caring and supportive parents. Just like myself I had two supportive parents that loved and disciplined my sisters and I. Overall his show didn't do well but he made an impact on my life as a teenager. I would like to see him in more sitcoms but now he's married with a family of his own,and I didn't know if he's coming back to prime-time television. He deserves much success in what ever career he chooses.
