Subject: I wish I was adopted into this TV family
Written By: warped on 11/04/12 at 12:31 pm
What TV shows did you watch as a child and got you thinking.."I wish I were adopted into this TV family"
Either because your own family was screwed up, or you liked the TV parents, the TV kids, or just a general feeling you wish you belonged to that TV family instead of your own?
I felt that way about "The Brady Bunch" and "The Waltons". I wished I were adoipted by either one of those families.
To a lesser extent, I also felt the same way about being another "Davis" kid in "Family Affair".
If I were younger I would have liked to be one of the kids in "The Cosby Show"
How about all of you?

I didn't want to be adopted but I totally wanted to attend wasteland school for girls!
Maybe I wouldn't have minded being adopted by Merrill Stubbing :D I would've hated having Vickie as a sister but I'd love living on the Pacific Princess.
I think as a young kid I was jealous of Dodie on My Three Sons because she was truly the gem in her family. They doted on her annoying ass ;D
I kinda wanted to hang out with Eddie and Joey (Courtship of Eddie's father) because when she wasn't bearing him up they seemed like good friends.

I'd just like to point out that Barry (Williams?) who was an actor for The Brady Bunch is awesome.
Otherwise, I sometimes wished I could live as a Springfield resident in The Simpsons

I think had more powers but Darrins head would've spun around before exploding so they tamed it down for his sake. :D

I always wanted to live with Dan Tanna (as his girlfriend) because I thought he had the coolest pad in Vega$
also....if I won the lotto (like big time lotto money) I would buy the bldg that was used for the Charlie's Angels exteriors and convert the interior to my living quarters... I'd seriously consider making the living room an exact reproduction of the Townsend Investigations office! 8)

I felt the same way but only with Anthony Blake from the Magician (played by Bill Bixby of course ;) ). His pad was an airplane! It was called "The Spirit". And he drove around in a vette. Needless to say, I was also in love with vettes since then.

I was always a little warped, so I wanted/still want to be a Munster or part of the Addams families.
Wanted to live on Sesame Street in my own trash can.
I would have liked being a Walton, but I might have been as whiny and wanderlust as John-boy.
I would have liked working at the Muppet Show theater.

We used to always play the Addams Family (since we had a big family). By brother was Gomez, my oldest sister was Morticia, one sister was Uncle Fester, another one was Cousin Itt, "Dawg" was Pugley and being the youngest, I was Wednesday. We did the same thing with the Brady Bunch. I was Cindy.

Morticia Adams, very sexy.
Our family was too small in size to play that game. :-[
If we played the Brady Bunch, I'd be Peter for sure. (oh...but I couldn't be Peter...coz I had a crush on Marsha....but Greg had a crush on Marsha..I could be Greg...but it was really Barry having a crush on Maureen. Who could I be...maybe big man on campus? Captain of the football team? but Marsha dumped him....so that's no good. I guess I have to be Davey Jones or Desi Arnaz Jr.)
what...what we we talking about? :D

A few years back, we had a Profile Bandit who would come and change people's user names all the time. For Halloween one year, EVERYONE'S names were changed. I was Morticia Addams-and Carlos was Gomez of course. ;) I wonder what happened to the PB. Them seem to have disappeared. :\'( :\'( :\'(
Um...Bosely? ;) :D ;D ;D ;D ;D

:P
I miss the pb. But they've moved on. And spend more time on fb now.

I wanted to else to Eastland on the Facts of Life and be friends with Tootie--and break her Jermaine Jackson addiction--or be adopted into the Winslow Family on Family Matters. And run Steve Urkell off. LOL.
