Hunky Max Horvath comes back to town to train the new flight instructors while his troubled wife Julie is staying home to take her "exams". We never found out what she was studying,
Of course he is roped into being the temporary Little League coach for pouty lipped waif Alex Handris and hi jinks ensue.
Ridiculous episode made charming by Michael Lembeck and little Damon Riskin.
It’s so funny cuz I watched this as a 12 year old and never thought anything of Max and now I’m in love with him LOL
Another great episode thanks for sharing 🙂
Barbara looks really good in those jeans.
Yo did you hear that whistle? lol
Valerie is so pretty though, still in 2022.
Michael Lemveck was a great actor . Too bad he had to be written out the first time MacKenzie Phillips was let go.
Don't feel too bad, he went on to direct a number of TV shows--most notably 5 seasons of "Friends".
@@PIXPromosMore He was actually brought back though.
He was a regular character in the final season, even after Mackenzie was fired the second time.
McKenzie was a mess and I think that she's a fine example of how whomever you bring into your life affects it one way or another so be careful who you bring into your circle.
He was in the show alot. He had a lot of episodes when Julie left the dentist and the bedtime story. He was in a lot of episodes
Alex there's no crying in baseball!!!
I used to watch that show when I was young and I always thought he was annoying sorry lol 😂
Great episode 👍 We need more shows like this..
Max was sooo F’N hot
Why did you upload the commercials?
The boy he reminds me of Adrian zmed
But in a GAY way .
I hate to say this but Alex looks like a girl
We could have done without this kid's story line...
I never liked him in anything. Especially The Love Boat. Just rubs me the wrong way but I can't really say why. He has a punch me face. 😅
@@lorimiller4301he is kind of annoying
@@renesagahon4477Theres something about him I really like. Season 9 felt empty without him.
@@lorimiller4301 Agreed. When he was in those Love Boat episodes, I had to suppress my urge to punch the tv screen.
@@renesagahon4477 Super annoying with a face begging to be punched . 😂
The whole series is out on dvd! :)
We have it in our DVD collection watching it now XOXOXO
Buy it once, watch it forever, pass down to next generations; they learn how we lived
I never liked this “precocious 1970s kids” . Just found it annoying - dialogue obviously written by an adult
These child actors are brutal
Barbara used to be sporty. How does she know nothing about baseball?
She played basketball.
I was thinking the same thing. She started out as a tomboy. Here she worries about her nails and what to wear coaching. It’s stupid.
Basketball
@@patty-cf7jjit could be realistic inasmuch as girls grow from high school to college and can outgrow stuff. But it is uneven writing in actuality.
@@beholden2874 And that plothole could have been so easily patched with a line or two from Barbara, some little witticism about her once being a tomboy once and how she had changed. Wouldn't have been hard.
This was funny!!!!
Kenny Logins was on the show?
What the hell is a fungo
Good gosh...why can't I have the same problem as the people in 12:35 >
LOL !! Yeah !! It would be the same thing as "My bank is so overflowing with money that I just don't know what to do with it ".
The girl that plays Frankie kinda looks like Sara Gilbert on Roseanne.
That was a guy.
He was a boy. Damon Bradley Cooper
I still want her hair.
Gee, Indianapolis Indiana sure does have a lot of New York jews.
When I was young, I could easily tell Glenn Scarpelli (Alex) is gay.
I first saw him on Jennifer Slept Here and I could tell too.
How is this broadcast on the CW network during the commercial break and then Antenna TV during the closing credits?
Cool show onedayattime cheer in

No Schneider? Ill be damned!
He would have been a great coach.

I wonder how much $$ Bonnie Franklin got paid for this episode? Was she even in it more than 3 minutes?
The less Bonnie Franklin, the better. haha
They got paid by the WEEK .
@@DizzLexic YOU ARE RUDE!
@@TMcConnaughhay What's rude is calling other people rude!!
What season is this? And who's the little boy and how is he in the story?
I guess I have a lot of catching up to do.
This was filmed early in the seventh season (23:42 was Valerie's main opening credit shots - you'll see it in closing credits on the left at 26:01 at and in the opening credits on the right at 26:11). The young man is Glenn Scarpelli playing the part of "Alex Handris", the son of Ann's once-boyfriend Nick Handris (played by Ron Rifkin) from season six. Ron Rifkin left the show in 1981. Glenn's character was so popular at the time that they kept him on with the storyline that his mother and remarried to a man who traveled too much and would not be in one place long enough for him (schooling, etc.).
episode info here www.imdb.com/title/tt0665811/?ref_=ttep_ep20
episode is Hardball S7 E20
@@millenniumman75 Actually the actor who played Ann's boyfriend wasn't fired from the show he died before the next season and the Alex character was so popular that they kept him on the show.
@@hallnelson2897 Ron Rifkin is still alive, though. He left the show and they put in the drunk driver story to explain it.

Frankie reminds of Darlene from Roseanne?? Lol is it just me
Frankie is a boy.

Isn’t it funny that the Lord never said anything about Donald Trump. Yet.
Very funny
Roseanna Arquette looks awesome.
I could see one or two ads but six and counting. Not worth it
What season is this from?
Season 7 - it was one of the first filmed but didn't until toward the end of the seaason.
@@millenniumman75Where did you find that out?
@@Asukenick The opening credits of season 7 had shots from this episode, which means it would need to be among the first filmed of the season. This episode didn't air until the spring of 1982.
@@millenniumman75 Alex moves in was the first episode taped I'm sure.
@@Asukenick There were opening credits shots (Bonnie's) from that episode, yes. Hardball, I believe, was third. Airport was second. It also had shots used in the opening credits.
The show should have been cancelled by this point.
After seeing this episode I agree
Even after 9 seasons CBS wanted to do two more but Valerie and Bonnie had enough.
15 and 4'11"?
And I thought I was short in 9th/10th grade at 5 feet -5'2"
His character was 13 though.
"jockey shorts" trashy old timer lingo
