Subject: Jason Bateman, I think...
Hi everyone! For some reason, my memory has been playing nasty tricks on me lately and has sent parts of a memory of a t.v. show of the 80s. The memory is of Jason Bateman (I'm pretty sure it's him) as a teen that is organizing a band's performance for something. The band he creates with a friend is a bunch of skeletons on stage with wires hooked up from the skeletons to his friend backstage. The friend made the movements of the band by manipulating the wires. The name of the band was "The Dregs of Humanity". That's one part of the memory; the other parts, I'm not as sure of. I think that this episode of the show was a two-parter and that the show was originally cancelled before the second part aired, but due to fan response, they aired the second part. So, I guess my question is what is the show's title, and am I dreaming all of this up? :-) Debbie

The show wads called "It's Your Move" and it was hilarious and unfortunately shortlived. By the way, Steve, Marcy's first husband on "Married with Children," was the brunt of a lot of Jason's pranks on the show. I don't think you're dreaming all this up either. Someone brought this show up on this website several months ago. This series was pre-"Valerie's Family" with Sandy Duncan (originally Valerie Harper)or whatever that series was called that featured Bateman in the late '80s.
Take care,
David
