Excellent adaptation.

Don't Believe the Hype

Absolutely Fantastic

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

I may have only seen about 25 episodes in my life of The Hogan Family, but believe me, for a show like that, it does not take much to love it! I've gotta give a round of applause especially to Sandy Duncan, for she was funny and one heck of an actor, perfect for her character. After all, who else would you have to help raise 3 boys after their mother suddenly dies? I've got nothing against the other actors, cause they were also excellent. Of all the sitcoms that Miller-Boyett Productions and Lorimar Television did, this must be and will always be my favorite one. If you ever happen to see it on TV one of these days, please don't change that channel. It could be something you may regret. Also, I hope they put episodes on DVD someday, cause if they do, I'm gonna be in the line to buy one!

I remember watching this show on Sunday afternoons when I was younger and loving them. It wasn't a philosophical show that takes after something by Shakespeare, but it was fun. A lot of my friends during that time loved it, as well. Sandy Duncan took Valerie Harper's place, and it reminded me of my friend's mother. That was another way it connected with me. It let family be funny, safe, and comfortable, just like other sitcoms. There was nothing wrong with it! It was just fun and simple! Other shows like this were "Family Matters", "Family Ties", "Cosby Show", "Roseanne", etc.. If you watch those shows, then you should find "The Hogan Family", sit back, and enjoy!

how can you say that the hogan family was a great show, Mark and Dave and the other guy. that was a good show, it reminded me of my neighbors. i had to register just to tell everyone how good this show was. you know what else where good shows? pete & pete, salute your shorts, and "fun house". too bad there not in syndication anywhere:(

I can't remember a worse show than this. Family Hogan is boring and meaningless. I never found a laughable joke. This must be product of a lame mind. Pathetic from the very beginning, more ridiculous even than `7th Heaven', although Linkan-3 can doubt it. Too moralist, the subjects are never smart. But the Hogans will please old ladies who had never seen that machine called TV.
