[QUOTE="ClassyCo, post: 436699, member: 7"] While scrolling through the reels on YouTube a week or so back, I stumbled upon the theme song for "227", the NBC sitcom that aired from 1985 to 1990, producing five seasons and 116 episodes. Based on the successful stage play TWO-TWENTY-SEVEN, the series was a star vehicle for Marla Gibbs, fresh-off her seasons-long success on THE JEFFERSONS, which concluded its eleven-season run in July 1985. The series is set in a black neighborhood in Northeast, Washington D.C., where a group of characters live at 227 Lexington Place.

Also living in the apartment building are Pearl Shay (Helen Martin), the nosy, busybody, downstairs neighbor, and the younger and vivacious Sandra Clark (Jackee Harry), whose views on life often provide comedic fodder between her and Mary. "227" had a successful run and has been reasonably successful in syndication since it ended in 1990. Any fans of this show? [ATTACH type="full" width="399px"]58470[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
