Madame et sa fille

Great show! I'm sad that it was cancelled. While most people don't even remember this show, it seems that the casting director of Jerry Maguire had a faint recollection. Watch the movie closely, and you will notice that Angela Goethals was cast in a tiny role as a tennis player, and Todd Louiso played Chad, the nanny.

It was a shame ABC axed this show after one season, I bet if it was on longer a bigger audience would have been built. Either way, Phenom is a gem. It's a sitcom with some good morals, and is funny without being too corny. The acting is also top notch. I am thankful I do have about every episode on tape, and I occasionally do hold mini marathons where I watch them. The series focused on Angela Doolan, a 16 year old tennis ace. She came across problems all teenagers face: family, friends, pressure and her overbearing coach. I even went to a taping of this show (if you see the episode where Coach Lou's friend dies, listen closely to hear a stupid fake laugh, that's me). I swear, if I had enough money I'd buy the episodes/rights from Columbia themselves (okay I am going nuts). Maybe the Fox Family Channel or Disney or some cable channel will somehow notice this show and buy them and broadcast the episodes. If you ever get a chance to see this show, see it and enjoy. Oh yeah, whatever happened to Angela Goethals?

I thought Phenom was great. It had snappy one liners, good scenes and characters and wasn't limited to 30 second clips of jokes to pad it out. I was at college at the time and around 25 and I still found it funny and fresh, and watchable on several levels. I've not seen it since either in repeats in the UK or on DVD or on satellite shows - which is a great sadness. We have Knight Rider and even Autocar (groan) which are played regularly and available on DVD. I've no idea ow many series were shown on TV but I'm sure they could fit on a single 2-disc release. Bring it back and bring it out on DVD. Todd Louiso is a hunk in it, too.

I really loved this show! I thought it was one of the best in the 90's! The sad thing is that it was canceled and has not been rebroadcast! What I don't understand we have reruns of several different TV shows but this one hasn't been thought of!How any times can we watch the Cosby Show, Full House, and many others. Don't get me wrong I love these shows too but they have had so much air time. They really need to put this on DVD and have some reruns on too. This is a show that can be watched by young children. I was a young kid when this show was on and my parents approved this wholesome and funny show for there children to watch without supervision. I just hope that they will give this show a chance to be put back on the air!

I thought me and a friend were the only one who liked this show. I thought all girls were cute, but the thing that drew me the most was how over the top Brian Doolan was. I remember one episode where he was say how his mom walked in on him when he was REALLY enjoying a magazine's pictorial. I'm laughing right now thinking about that scene. I wish this series would be release on DVD or tape. I would buy it. Or re-broadcast
