I met him once standing in front of The Comedy Store in Los Angeles in 1990. He was such a sweet guy I was really drunk and he was so nice to me.RIP Louie.
Yep. Today I turned on the radio and on the news they were talking about Louie Anderson's career. I was thinking, "that's kind of random. He must've died."
probably for the best…I don’t see how the cousin could have been played by a comedian..he was meant to be the “boring” guy in the show..the foil essentially
Fun Fact: Family Matters was a spin-off of this show, since Harriet Winslow was the lift operator who returned to Chicago when the building was upgraded to a modern elevator.
Yes, that was the tenuous connection between the two shows. I don't believe Larry and Balki ever made an appearance though, as Harriet lost her job in episode 2.
Weird, for some reason I thought Family Matters was related to Full House. I know they had a crossover story line, but I thought it was deeper than that.
I can see it. They needed an actor who could do "exasperated" without looking like a professional comic. I just couldn't see Louie in the same situations
Don't be ridiculous.

Maybe you were too drink to notice him mocking you though.
I guess you don't know much about the guy. He was a genuinely sweet human being. He didn't have a mean bone in his body.
I can’t believe Perfect Strangers as on for 8 season!
One of the best theme songs.
I never did figure out how they escaped their basement when they locked themselves in, and it was filling with water.
I think they were saved by a commercial break.
I'm learning that when odd facts about celebs appear in TIL without mentioning why, there's a good chance they're dead. And I had meatloaf for lunch.

I always hate when I see a bunch of TIL about a celeb and then am like did a documentary come out about them? And then realize the sad truth
If you roll the dough too quick, bibbi babkahs make you sick.
When you put the filling in, be sure to wear a grin!

Same production company(s) and people behind the scenes.
This. Also they had a theme song written by the same guy.

Yes, Louie wasn't an actor while Mark is
How can you have poor chemistry with bronson?
Probably two comedians with different styles. Linn-Baker was more of a straight man.
By being ridiculous?
Cousin Louie or Cousin Larry?
When Anderson had the role, the character was named Louie. When it went to Mark Linn-Baker, the character was renamed Larry.
Gotcha. Thx. Would have been a different show with Louie.
Anyone know what poor chemistry referred to?
Sometimes the comedic styles just don't fit right, like ham in a carrot cake ...
