5. It was evocative of the era , when it was on.
Times have changed though:) I was 30-something, and i liked it :) The nutty artist sister was always my favorite:)

Experts call it "Peter Pan Syndrome" and I know plenty of people in my generation who seem to have caught it.

They may not be quite as whiny, but they definitely refuse to grow up.

10. Yep....she was my favorite, too.
Loved that show...as you said it was "evocative of the era," for some of us. Obviously not for others, here. :D
