Featured review
Fun show for a while
I remember liking this show alot for the first few seasons. After that it got a little tired. The first season was the best when they filmed entirely (and brilliantly showcased) in and around San Diego. Starting with the second season, the pressure to cut costs forced the filming to be in Los Angeles, with Marina Del Rey stepping in for Pacific Beach/Mission Bay. The humour of the brothers being almost constantly broke really drove them to work, and you wonder how they made ends meet. The addition of Tim Reid to the cast gave the show a new breath, and carried it for a few more years, but by 1987 the show had run out of gas.
