In 1990, Fox debuted Parker Lewis Can’t Lose, a show about a charming teenager who always seems to get his way.  Comparisons to Ferris Bueller abounded, but the show went beyond that and made the idea its own.  For three seasons, the antics of Parker and his Buds–Mikey and Jerry–along with Kubiak, Shelley, and Principal Musso were unlike any other sitcom.  Join me as a I take a walk through the show by talking about its history, its cast and characters, and some of my favorite moments.

A dear friend once said to me: “It’s a lot of fun when everyone’s a dork of some sort or another.” As I look back on my life as a dork, I realize that not only have I geeked out, but not in the right way. My taste, you see, isn’t great. But instead of hiding from that, I’ve decided to embrace it. Part commentary, part memoir, this is an exploration of my weird love for the obscure and for those things that sorta suck.
