Help with a TV show from late 80s / early 90s - need title
I can usually remember TV shows and film titles but this US one eludes me
It was set in New York and opening credits had a high school kid (about 17 or 18) with glasses and curly hair riding on the subway and thinking to himself and smiling. Theme song was Randy Newman's 'Falling in Love' as this scene played
Seem to remember he was jewish and the title may have had his name in it- and it might have begun with A ?!??
then again it might not

I'm sorry, Mark, but I can't find a damn thing. At least TV Show related info. I looked at his bio on www.imdb.com and the only thing that showed was that the song "falling in love" was used in the movie Her Alibi.

cheers guys - but it's none of those :)
i checked IMDB for the song and Monk and Her Alibi were what came up.
I notice on Randy Newman's page on imdb there are two people asking exactly the same question as me - no one has responded to their posts !
Does anyone actually remember the show like me ?? ;)

What was the format of the show? Was it like the wonder years?
Re: Help with a TV show from late 80s / early 90s - need title
just a general sit com about him and high school life, love life , family life etc...
your general growing up sit com though not as sentimental as the Wonder Years !

Re: Help with a TV show from late 80s / early 90s - need title
no - the guy in Training Day Jim was Tom Berenger, think you might be getting him confused with him
not Alien Nation ;)
he was on earth and some floating orb type thing went everywhere with him
never worked cos I hated the actor - as he was bstard in Karate Kid as the leader of the cobras and he was a bastard to John J Rambo in First Blood II
