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.

TBS used to have a whole lineup of this type show. They came on in the afternoons from about 4 to 5 o'clock.Does anyone remember the names of any of the others? I can remember what a few of them were about but I don't remember the names of them. One was about the spirit of a lady from the 1920's who took care of a family from the 80's. She was like their maid or something. Another one had a bachelor who took his teenage sister in after their parents passed away. My sister and I watched these shows everyday when we were kids. I was glad to see someone other than me remembers them. I would like to watch them now. I'll bet that they are pretty corny, but everything seems better if it's part of your childhood I guess.

I was thinking for a long time that maybe I made this show up. I was just 5 when this show was on, but I still have a memory of it. I remember an episode where one of the female characters was injured or not feeling well or maybe the younger kids wanted something... but anyway they were using pillows to try to make her comfortable by elevated her head and feet and went overboard with it.. practically bending her in half. Anyone else remember this? Or am I crazy?

I would really love to watch this show again now that I'm older and can really enjoy it. Right now I'm re watching Charles In Charge.

I can't help it. I get nostalgic for my childhood. One day I may even watch Punky Brewster and Mr. Belvedere again. lol

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.
