[QUOTE="Toni, post: 110426, member: 82"] I remember I watched "79 Park Avenue" in the early 80´s and it was indeed a lot of fun, even for a tender teenager like moi! There are a lot of lesser-known miniseries from the 80´s that are really entertaining: "Rich Man Poor Man" (especially the first part before becoming a continuing soap the next season) "Seventh Avenue", "The Captains and the Kings", "The Last Convertible", "Evergreen"...apart from the amazing trio that was "Roots", "Holocaust" and "Brideshead Revisited". Then something happened...and they filled the TV schedule with trashy miniseries with "Sex", "Love", "Power" and other emoti-words in their titles. Not that they weren´t enjoyable or funny, but also hard to take seriously! It lasted around a decade...and the 90´s brought a boring repetitive touch of "dignity" to the multi-hour TV movies. I´d only save this one, very underrated. This one was, like Mandy Winger, "trash with class": [CENTER] [IMG]https://seriesblanco.com/files/uploads/3439.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER] [/QUOTE]
