    I'm glad that finally ppl are talking about how this show was weird. I did watch it in 2009-10 ish (international viewer here) and always found their dynamic weird. At the time my thinking was that: "you only have an older sister + cultural differences, duygu" soo I let it 'slide' but like.... LIKE....

    They literally just released a movie that continues to follow Casey and Derek's life as adults with families... I watched some small clips of it from what I found in CZcams... definitely interesting from what I've seen so far. But totally want to hear your take on it!

    You want to talk about watching it back with full context? I was five when I started watching this show. Watching things back now is so much different now that I'm old enough to really understand a lot of it because jokes and scenes in these shows used to go over my head a lot as a kid. There are so many that I watch again and go, "Oooooh! That makes so much more sense now!" and ones that make me go, "Oh. Well, that's completely . . . different than what I remember."

    Does anyone else remember the episode where Casey's aunt was getting married and stay with them along with her cousin Vicky/Victoria. And the entire episode Derek and Vicky were eye-banging and flirting with each other and they ended up making out with each other at the end. Meaning that since Derek is Casey's STEPBROTHER. Derek was kissing his STEP COUSIN. This show really was the genesis of "WHAT ARE YOU DOING STEP BRO?"
