    I miss this show

    This has been one of my favorite TV shows. Why did those morons at the TV station have to take it off the air? It started off on ABC as part of TGIF. After that, they put it on CBS and had reruns of it on NBC. It's sort of like the "Brady Bunch" except that the kids don't get along at all, especially JT and Dana who are almost always bickering with each other. JT usually calls Dana "Barkey" and she makes a clever comeback by calling him "Greaseball." Let's see now, we also have Karen, Dana's vain sister and Mark, Dana's nerdy brother. Of the Lambert children we have JT of course, then sports-freak Al(short for Alicia) and carefree Brendan. Oh, let's also not forget the weird, but loveable Cody (JT, Al, and Brendan's cousin)who lives in a van in their backyard. I love this show very much. So please, God, bring this show back.

    One of the all time best sit-coms

    I've been watching this show since the first episode and have always loved it. I hate when shows get cut off with so much going on, mainly Dana's relationship with Rich. That was a great move by the producers of the show, because, seriously, who saw it coming? The only thing that was bad was that some of the show's magic was lost when Cody left. He was without a doubt the funniest character on it. Of course, they tried at one point to replace the comic relief with Flash, who was entertaining at Disney World, trying to break the visiting record. But, he never did live up to the Code-Man. It was also cool seeing Bronson Pinchot as a Frenchman for a season (he brings over a good character from his star performance on Perfect Strangers).

    Never Dull, Always Cool....One of the Best!

    It's too bad this one isn't made anymore, but it's one of my all-time favs. It's too bad Sasha Mitchell had to leave in '96..his Cody "Code-Man" Lambert Character made for excellent comic relief. Good thing it's found on syndication.

    One of the best TV-series in the whole world!

    I think "Step by Step" is one of the best TV-series I've ever seen. One of the things that make it so good is that the happening is so normal. It's a perfectly normal family, with perfectly normal family-problems. Just like "F*R*I*E*N*D*S", "step by step" has this wonderful gallery of different personalities. Friendship against different personalities makes one of the best kinds of humor the world have ever seen. "Step by Step" is very helpful, it tells us about problems and dilemmas everyone can get, and it tells us about it with this GREAT sense of humor! The actors are fantastic and the happening is fabulous! There might come other series about families like the Foster-Lambert family, but even if it's funnier, cooler or smarter, it would not be the same, and it'd only one reason why it can't be the same as "step by step": IT'S NOT "STEP BY STEP"!! It's a shame this fantastic show was canceled, but in some countries (my native land Norway, till example) you can still see the episodes on TV every day.

    If you haven't seen "step by step" you have missed a lot of fun!!

    Good show up until.....

    I understand they had to ditch cody due to some legal issues in real life, I loved the replacement with jean-luc. wish they'd have kept him for the final season. Where I got lost and started to hate the show was the addition of lily. She ruined it for me completely. one season she's just born, next season she's 5-6?... How stupid was that move?!?... She was obnoxious, and just a terrible add on. I have a kid too and she wasn't nearly this snotty at that age so, no.. this is not "how kids act'..

    I did skip the theme episodes however. I got sick and tired of how shows in the 90's would try and, and I'd think of as promotion of certain things ie; disney world.. family matters did it too and I skipped it. I also wasn't into the episodes where they had a dream and ended up in the wild west. theme episodes to me are boring.

    The rest of the show was as good as tv could get, and I think more parents should really raise their kids on 90's shows.

    • Trivia
      Of all the actors who played Frank and Carol's children, only Christine Lakin (Al Lambert) had a substantial acting career after the show ended. Staci Keanan, Angela Watson, and Emily Mae Young acted intermittently in some movies and TV shows following the show's cancellation, but the other actors largely retired from acting.
    • Goofs
      The kids' ages don't progress in a way that makes sense. For example: although Frank and Carol's anniversaries pass in real time, half of the kids age in slow motion. Dana and J.T. are both 16 in S1, and Dana is 20 at the end of S5 and J.T. is "almost 20" at the beginning of S6. Karen is dating in S1 and has a prom in S4, but is somehow still in high school in S6. Al, Brendan, and Mark seem to age in real time, but Lily jumps 5 years; she was born at the end of S4 and turns 6 in S6E11.
