Rocky Road

I remember watching this show on Superstation WTBS (now just TBS). I use to watch it after school. The biggest things I remember about it was that there was a big cast change and the cop guy started having a crush on the woman running the ice cream shop who replaced another woman. There was also an episode where a girl had to eat a whole bottle of ketchup. It would be nice to be able to see these shows again. I miss my childhood. This was also back in the time when TBS use to start all of their shows five minutes past the hour or half hour. The other show that use to be shown with this one on TBS was "Down to Earth" that featured Dick Sargent of Bewitched fame.

The show originally starred Maylo McCaslin playing the role of the big sister along with Lily Moon as the younger sister. During the 2nd season Desiree Boschetti replaced her and Marcianne Warman replaced Lily Moon. In the 4th season is when Lewis Arquette and Sandy (Jim Menza) who played the cop was replaced by a man and his son who bought Lewis Arquette's Bait shop. Georg Olden played Robbi the brother and Kelly Ann Conn as (cant remember her name) the blonde sexy woman through the life of the show. The show aired on TBS and was produced by the Arthur Company (Arthur Annechario) who also produced the Munsters Today (remember that?) Safe at Home & Down to Earth were all produced by this company. During the later episodes of Down to Earth, this was taken over by Proctor & Gamble.

I can remember the theme song to this show. Its about siblings that live and run an ice cream shop on the beach after their parents die. My favorite character was the older sister and I remember writing her a fan letter and sending it to the show. She did write back and sent an autographed picture of herself and had drawn a a picture of an ice cream cone on it. I kept it for a long time but it has disappeared over the years. I wish I still had it. I looked forward to watching the show everyday after school.I am so happy to see Rocky Road is on here and that others remember it. I finally have proof to show my husband and friends that I am not crazy and this show DID exist.

"Rocky Road" was a television sitcom about a family-run ice cream parlor on the beach. The parents, who owned the parlor, had recently died, and their three children inherited and ran the parlor. The three kids (the eldest daughter, the middle son, and the youngest daughter)all lived above the ice cream shop. The plot lines generally revolved around family relations and random funny things that happened around the parlor.

I've talked about this show so many times and my husband says he has never heard of it or a couple of other shows that i use to love. I was beginning to think i just imagined it. Rocky Road, Down to Earth and there was another show- Rags to Riches- not sure what channel that show was on though. But i loved watching these shows! Good family friendly shows that made people laugh and also had a message behind it. I wish they would show re-runs of some of these old shows. Is there any way to request that? Maybe they could at least run a few episodes and see if people will tune in. I know i would! Does anyone know if any of these shows were ever available on VHS or DVD?
